the questions discussion

1. Bouncer represents the people that believe in power could solve all the problems, and Jenny represents the people who just wanna keep everything as simple as they could, we can see it from her suggestion of switching there destination to a safer island. I don't prefer either one of them, 'cause sometimes you gotta be like Bouncer, deal with it, face it, avoiding problems are not the best way of solving problems. But, of course, most of the time, our priority is to avoid anything that is harmful happen, just like what Jenny thought.
2. He is the one who spoke first and no one fought against him at that time point.
3.This behavior shows that Bouncer is totally a loser. When everything is going well, he wanna be the first one that takes all the credits, and when things are losing control, he just threw all the responsibilities away and pretend that it's none of his business. He decided to take control again because he saw that everything was going well again.
4. I disagree with the "and I will be the king!" part, he was just being too selfish.
5. 'Cause we all see him as the leader of the group of mice.
6. Why didn't the mice think that Bouncer was being too annoying at first?
7.I think she means "Why did the skog wear so big costumes", because the skog was afraid that its safe and lonely life would be disturbed by those strangers, that's why the skog wanna keep those mice away by scaring them to death.
8. Because normally we would see Jenny's opinion as a wise thought, it not only keep everyone safe but also solve the problems. And the leaders should always be the smartest one, that's why they viewed Jenny as a leading character.

The skog is a lovely book. While reading it, those lovely pictures made me read it happily and accept the main idea in it easily. I think what the author tried to express to us is to avoid taking the defensive first move before understanding each other. Or we might have extra troubles which are not necessary.
I really like those drawings on the pages. I have to study meny textbooks in recent days(and some of them are quite boring as you can imagine), so I really had fun reading it and relaxing. Maybe some of you think it's too easy for you, enjoy the adorable iconograph then!

Skog = tamandua ?

What creature do the Skog is? Is it an tamandua ? I have seen an ant bear in Pink Panther, but it's blue in it. By the way, do anyone has seen this cartoon before?

Bouncer Bouncer

I think Bouncer wants easy lives and don't want to take an adventure. He always fancies him as a "great" leader, but in fact, he just wants to eat the best, use the best and want everyone to respect him. He is like some people in the society and we should avoid being a co-work with them or we may feel angry and want to punch him......
But I think he led music in the end means he love his companies and I think it also means everyone is in a huge family forever......

about the question [stefanie]

1.i think Bouncer did something i might do too. and as jenny's suggestion, it can avoid guys to get hurt.
2.Bouncer become the captain by being a volunteer.
3.Bouncer did somthing just like some people. they don't want to do things are hamble.
4.i don't agree that he said he will be the king. i think everyone spend lots of energy so the kindom is for everone.
5.Bouncer is always being leader. so of course at last the leader should lead all guys sing.
6.why do they want to put up a trap before they know about the skog ?
7.the skog wear a big costume to scare the mice.
8.for jenny to be the leading character because that's what jenny sugguest to do. as for Bouncer he wants to fight for freedom not search for a peaceful place.

I REALLY LOVED THE BOOK . THE ANIMALS WERE SO COOL BECAUSE THEY WOULD FIGHT OVER WHO'S LAND IT WAS

We read the book agin and i loved it even more,the book tough a great message,about not to judje somebody before you meet them.I think at the end of the book Bouncer was still kind of bossy, and Jenny still wanted a peace-full island,I also notised some parts in the book that I didn't hear befor, I felt bad for the Skog because he didn't have any friends and when the mice came he felt scared and he was also scared of the trapps that the mice put out.And if I was the skog I would aso feel scared. But at the end of the storey the skog made friends with the mice.

Now I'm on to a new subject.Me and the 3rd 4th and 5th grades from our school (and some other schools came to)went to a japanese drumming group called ''Yamoto''. It was so good,there was this guy i (forgot his name)was very funny.

you friend,
Sydney.

I love Skog! My reflection {by Nora}

After reading this books, I really like Skog!! It's little but really cute!^^
The pictures are elegant and the article make me think deeply, though it is just a short story. I think, at first, everyone has equal chance. But when you faced pressures or you want to change your life better, you must have a great of boldness. During the time, you have to face all kinds of problem and must figure it out and carry on. If you do so, then you have succeed. But if you give up, then you just lose the ticket to a rosy and wonderful future. I wish I can do my best and do not give up when I do everything. Then, our life would be more interesting then before. And when you have succeed, you’ll feel there is a great achievement in your mind!

the"skog" [stefanie]

when i first see the book. i was a little shock.
how can a book be painted so well.
and about the story, i think it's telling if we want to have something like freedom.
we may have to fight for it or it won't be us if we just think in our mind.
i think it's quite a good book. i learn a lot from it.

about the skog [Eileen]

what I learned from this book is that before you get to know someone, don't do any mean thing or whatever that is impolite to them just because you didn't like them at first, maybe after you get to know them well you'll like who they are. I like this book, it's cute and interesting. :)

hot stuff

I think i relly like the book it is fun to read

the skog {ginny}

I did not like this book it did not rock out but it did have a messege Ithink that it means that vilence is not the best way to tell some one you are somewaer
bye bye
ginny
p.s. you can find my real name in other messeges

the book the island of the skog teached me that if you want to do something and your scared go do it.dont judge people how they look.judge their personality.

I think the book is about no matter what you think, listen to others before taking action. and then you take the Idea that every thinks is best and you do that action. And you will have everyones trust and you could have people think that you are a good leader.

Group two, please blog about Island of the Skog.

Please always post one entry about the book and three comments on the other bloggers' entries. Have fun!
