Near the end of this chapter, Otter learns the truth about the crew to which his father and Uncle Foxfire are assigned.  How do you think this news affects him?

  1. I think that otter thinks they're not as much as a hero as the said they were in the Middle Kingdom. But on the other hand he thinks they can make the outcasts from the other crews into one real crew.

  2. I think that Otter thinks the crew is kind of mean or foolish that Otter isn't very fond of the crew.

  3. Good points, but think about the nature of the crew and why this particular group of men is working together. Please reread if you need to.

  5. In chapter 11 on page 105 in the 5 paragraph when it says "Honker's a hypochondriac" what do you guys think that word means?

  6. Ya, I agree with emma. I guess I wasn't paying attention that I can ask questions to.

  7. The crew can get work done and still have time to fool around so they have a responsible side and a foolish side which is good at times. And i have no clue what a hypochondriac is.

  9. I think that the crew is good at there job but it is just that the crew fools around to and like Zeus said the crew has a foolish and serious side. I am not sure what the word hypochondriac means but I will look it up in a minute.

  10. Hypochondriac in the dictionary says related to hypochondria. Hypochondria is the persistent neurotic(which relates to neurosis which is functinal disorders of the mind or emotions without obvious change), conviction that one is likely to become ill.

  11. Good work, Matt. Does that make sense to you (and everyone else)? What do you think hypochondriac means (in your own words)?

  12. I guess I didn't really see a foolish side to this crew. Can someone shed light on that for me?

  13. I'm not sure that everyone got the gist of my question. Who are these guys that Otter, his father, and Foxfire are working with and why are they grouped together?
