I really like this chapter, it made me think a lot about my house, my parents, my possessions. I think that's one of the things I like most about Natalie Babbitt's writing, she makes me think. Here is the question:
-How do you think Winnie's life at home compares to yours?
I can relate to Winnie. Life's tough. Like Winnie I sometimes feel wistful and long to be "out in the open." Sometimes I also talk to toads when I'm bored.
ReplyDeleteA lot of time at my home I think that if id didn't have a sibling life would be easier but Winnie thinks the other way. I always wonder what it will be like when I'm older and can do what i want.

ReplyDeleteI cant relate to that but lots of the time I wonder how life would be if I did not have siblings.
ReplyDeletei can relate because since both my sisters are at college sometimes i wish i had more siblings so that i wouldn't get blamed for everything and so that my parents wouldn't only focus on me
ReplyDeletei cant relate to this because my sister is very annoying and i also wonder in my dream about life without siblings. That was a great dream my favorite dream dream
ReplyDeletesame
Deletei find my sister exactly opposite of annoying but that probably because we have a pretty big age difference, we are 12 years apart, she is 23 at the moment.
DeleteI have a younger sister and I'm glad I don't get all the attention!
ReplyDeleteI have an older sister who just ended college and i DO get most of the attention, though to me it seems not so bad, probably because im out of the house most of the time, and am usually doing homework or something like that when i am at home.
DeleteI can't relate to Winnie because Winnie seems to be confined in her yard and house most of the time and I am not. Also, I am jealous that she doesn't have an annoying sister (I do). I would like to have a sibling, preferably a brother
ReplyDeletei have a brother. I can assure u they are equally annoying so don't feel 2 bad.
DeleteIt seems like Winnie often wonders about life with a sibling. I wish I didn't have a sibling.
ReplyDeleteI think Winnie is going through something that almost all of us have felt in one way or another. She seems to be really tired of being the only child in the house, the one who has her name called all the time, the one who is always in trouble for something.
ReplyDelete-I have an older sister and I never really appreciated having her around until she left to go to college, then suddenly I found myself really lonely in the house and missing the way that she tortured me. It's funny, but I guess we always want what we don't have.
yah same with my sisters
Deletewhen my sister went to collage (i was 7 i think) i was also lonely, i love having her around!!!!!!!! She never tortures me :D
DeleteYah I'm cool with having a brother cuz he shares the blame and stuff. He's nice 2 have around.
ReplyDeleteI agree but they take most of the blame as long as i do something for them so it kind of good to have younger brothers ans sisters
Deletei think my parents care about me as much as her
ReplyDeletei feel the same way sometimes but not usually because my parents usually let me go out and stuff
ReplyDeleteI think Winnie feels very isolated but at the same time her parents are doting on her and that happens because she is an only child compared to my life I have two older sisters and i'm not imprisoned on my own property.

ReplyDeletei can not relate to winney because i think that winney wants to run away and she feels trapped in her house because she is a only child. i do not feel the same way.I have a younger sister and something she can be annoying.but i do not wish i had more sisters.
ReplyDeleteWinnie feels stuck, and lonely, I don't really feel that way
