The big day has come, and Billy has treed his first coon. Now the problem is, the tree is absolutely huge! He tries to cut it down but he can't. He's just a small boy and cutting it down is too much for him to handle. I always felt bad during this part because he has worked so hard, and now can't get the coon down. But his good old grandpa comes down with a great idea to keep the coon in the tree. I always love how he helps him out when he's in a tough situation. Do you have anyone like that in your life? I also love Billy's determination and grit! I don't know if there is a character that I have ever read about that is like him. In my mind, everyone should have to go out into the woods and cut down and big tree like him. If you have ever done it before, you know it isn't an easy task. You have to be determined to get that done. If everyone had the same traits as him, they would all be very successful. How would you describe Billy after these first few chapters?
I've written a lot. Now it's your turn!
I would describe Billy as a hard working boy who is determined to do what he sets his mind to. He also makes sure he keeps his promises and would do anything for his pups. I loved how he made sure he chopped the tree down even though he had tons of blisters.
ReplyDeleteI bet that Billy feels like he can do anything. But I wonder how much little an is beat up
ReplyDeleteThat would hurt do bad all those blisters. That is so cool how he actual got the tree cut down. I love how little Ann is so brave.
ReplyDeleteI use to have a grandpa how did that but he died 2 or 3 years ago. I think Billy will be a brave boy. I did cut a tree 1/2 that size. It was not fun. But I got a little help. from my dad he did other side of me. We got it done even the 450 didn't pull it the R was gone so we to get H,450
ReplyDeleteBilly is hard working and determined. I think you can pretty much count on him to do anything! I don't think the dogs will be hurt that bad from this experience, but I do think they will be more careful next time they come across a coon.
ReplyDeleteI like how little ann was so brave, but how bad was she beat up?
ReplyDeleteBilly is hard working and determined. If I was Billy I would ask my dad to help me to cut down the huge tree.Then I would do the rest by my self. Billy is a brave boy if he stayed outside and sleep outside.
ReplyDeleteI think Billy never gives up on anything
