  • The chapters are beggining to get a little longer then a page now.
  • The title of one of the chapters is a fish pitched up by an angry sea then there is a little saying in the chapter talking about it.
  • The saying on the top of page 107 confused me and i didnt understand it.
  • I also like the saying that is on page 107 on the bottom i thought it was clever.
  • On page 108 the song twinkle twinkle little star is written.
