Chapter 4

Chapter Podcast by Palos West Student, Lauren, Grade 5

Chapter Quote:
"When you tell them that you have made a new friend, they never ask you any questions about essential matters."

Think & Read:
Why do you think grown-ups and children might think differently about "essential matters?"

Optional Activities:
How do you imagine yourself as a grown-up?  Create a Venn Diagram comparing yourself now as a child with how you think you will be as a grown-up.  Draw your diagram on paper or you can find an online Venn Diagram tool at the Read-Write-Think website.
