1. Did your mental image of the Pritchard boys match the video depiction of them? In what ways were they different from your original ideas? The mental picture in my mind of the Pritchard boys was nothing like the picture from the movie. I pictured them as gritty boys who could easily be found in the crowd. For example I imagined them a lot dirtier than they were. I also pictured them a lot ruder and obnoxious. The mental picture of Billy I had was a lot different too. I thought Billy was a lot taller. I also thought he was a lot gritter too.

2. Did you notice any differences in the plot from the book version to the video? What were those differences? I noticed that Billy's dog aren't the same color described in the book. In the movie both little Ann and Big Dann were a dark brown. But in the book one dog is black and the other is brown.

3. Which ideas were stronger in your mind, the book images of the people and events or the video version? Why do you think this is true? I think that the movie gave me a better image because sometimes in books you take the information given and make an image in your mind. And the movie gives you an actual image.

I'm from......... Billy Coleman Savannah

I'm from the deep forests of the Ozarks, and mama's chicken and dumplings. I'm from catching critters, and taking on more than I can handle. I'm from a large family and sad memories I'm from perseverance and integrity I'm from bittersweet candy and grandpa's store. I'm from day by day to the values of life I'm from from my very first soda and I "bet you five dollars." From the Ozarks to the Illinois River Thats where I'm from. || **1**-**1** of **1** =Reply= Type in the content of your page here.
