The book Into the Wild, by John Krakauer is about the adventures of Christopher McCandless. One day in Alaska, McCandless body was found in an old bus. Krakauer wonders why he was there, and what he was doing. They retrace his steps, and find out the many secrets of the two years in which he was missing. McCandless survived a total of 112 days in the Alaskan wilderness. He ate edible plants, and shot animals for food. During this time, McCandless kept a journal through his travels. Krakauer says that McCandless died because the food he was eating, did not give his body the energy to fight off toxins. Into the Wild is an exciting book about adventure and survival. John Krakauer does a great job going into McCandless life, finding many interesting things about him.
Becky,
ReplyDeleteYour blog project looks great. You could make some minor improvements. You have several commas when they are not needed. You don't need a comma before a conjunction like "and" when there is not a subject in the second part of the sentence. Also, you need direct quotes for examples for the indirect character traits. What does he do or say to come to those conclusions?
