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 image of the Pritchard boys I produced basically matched what they looked like in the video clip, but I thought that they wouldn't have dressed as nice as they did. I thought that their clothes would be more ragged, and I thought that Rubin would look bigger compared to Rainie than he did in the video clip.

2. Did you notice any differences in the plot from the book version to the video? What were those differences? I noticed that the setting was different, because when Grandpa made the bet with the Pritchard boys they were on the porch instead of the in the corn mill. Also, in the video clip, Grandpa scolded the Pritchard boys about chewing the tobacco stubs, but he didn't say anything in the book.

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? The images of the people and the events from the video version were stronger in my mind because I got to see the people and events with my eyes in a video, instead of reading about the descriptions of the people and the events.

I'm From poem

I'm From...Billy Colman
By Brandon M I'm from my house deep in the Ozarks Mountains, from the rushing Illinois River and the big sycamore tree. I'm from the rich golden grass of farm land, from the rugged trees that stand tall, from chasing smart old coons with my beautiful redbone hounds in the river bottoms. I'm from going to Grandpa's old country store, from farming the fields in the hot, noon-day sun. I'm from the back-breaking work of chopping down the big sycamore tree, from Little Ann, Old Dan, and all my adorable sisters. I'm from delicious fried eggs, cornmeal bread, and beans, from salt pork and mom's delectable chicken with dumplings. I'm from the determination of saving my money for 2 years to get my amazing pups.
