Presentation transcript:

By: Morgan, Anita, Abbey

Summary  The author: Lucy and Stephan Hawking  George meets Annie and Eric while trying to find his pet pig.  Eric enlightens George and Annie about the wonders of space.  during an adventure Reeper, an evil scientist, interferes with their fun.  He wants to steal Eric’s prize possession, the smartest computer in the world.  Will George and Annie be able to keep Reeper away in order to get Eric back from his adventure  The most Wretched Book

Award Given  Our award given to this book is the most wretched book. The most Wretched Book Most Wretched Book Wretched: miserable, pitiable

Too Predictable o You can see what is going to happen before it happens. o “The hall burst into applause as everyone rose to his or her feet…” o It is easy to tell what is going to happen next o “The figure in the space suit followed George inside.” o Annie was the only one in the book at that time that would do that. o Not only predictable, but it is also has too many facts.

Too Many Facts  It distracts the reader from the main story  At the least there are 3 pages of facts.  It is supposed to have some facts, but not so many that it distracts the reader.  “In 1996, passing within 9.4 million miles of the Earth…”  There are facts everywhere  They are also distracting because they don’t have anything to do with what was going on in the story.  “ What are we going to do when the door opens?”  “Haylie's comet…”  The 2 quotes have nothing to do each other.  It confuses the reader when the author switches to a different topics.

The End
