Title of book is KIDNAPPED . Author is ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON .
This book has 66 pages . I am now done with this book .
I understand about 70% of what I read .
1 Chose two of the character in the book that you are reading and compare how they are similar and contract how they are different .
The differences and the similar between Alan Breck Stewart and David Balfour :
Alan is a Jacobite rebel , and he is fiercely loyal to his clan and countrymen . He is an excellent swordsman and marksman . Moreover , he is quick to take offense, but also quick to forgive . He is sophisticated man. Alan and David Balfour are the most interesting character and they have strong sense of justice , but David believes it is settled by finding the most obvious guilty party and punishing him , such as when he suggests that James Stewart put out a warrant for the real killer of Colin . Alan , however , believes that to persecute that real killer would be unjust . They like to adventure . Both often have important differences . Moreover, they also work to further these goal of inheritance .
2 Why did you choose these two people ? Are you similar to either one of them? How are you similar ? How are you different ?
I chose David Balfour and Alan Breck Stewart to talk about because they are great adventurous men . Sometime, I want to be similar with them who are brave and strong . They are not afraid of dangerous , so I admire them so much. Something that I am different with them is that I can not use sword and kill someone else . I am afraid of blood . Moreover , I am older than David because he is seventeen , but I am eighteen years old . A big difference between them and me is that they are the boys and I am a girl .
