Hi all, these are the questions for the next Literary Circle on The Graveyard Book:
In the book you can find epitaphs of people
buried in the graveyard. They appear in italic letters next to the name of the
person (for example in chapter 2, p.98: "Joji G. Shoji, d. 1921, I was a stranger and you took me in"). Remember also Liza´s epitaph (made up by Bod): “We
don´t forget”.
-Look for an epitaph in the book that you like and
explain what it may mean and why you chose it (60 words min.). There are more epitaphs on these pages:
-p.39
-p.96
-p.104
-p.106
-p.140
-p.164
-p.176
-p.186
-p.209
Now choose one of these two questions to develop (in around 80 words):
-What epitaph would you like to have on your grave? Explain why.
-In Chapter
6 Bod wants to go to school, even though Silas does not approve of it, actually he has to convince him. It is not
something a kid would normally like, why do you think he wants it so much?
And Happy Halloween...
