Summer Reading

The main character Matt Cruise has numerous things he wants to desire in the novel Airborn but one of the main things he wants to desire is finding the beautiful creatures that a dying balloonist told him about I know this because of the quote when it says “But that night, on my watch, Benjamin Molly’s words sounded over and over in my head, and I wondered what it was he’d seen. Or thought he’d seen. Something winged in the sky by the sound of it. Beautiful creatures. Maybe he’d caught sight of an albatross or some other great seafaring bird, though certainly it was rare thing so deep over the ocean. But that night, I had to admit, I kept a sharp lookout as I swept the horizons and hopscotched over my constellations. I saw nothing out of the ordinary, none of Benjamin Molly’s beautiful creatures. But I wish I had. I liked to think there was no end of things aloft in the sky, unseen by us.” From this quote we can see how much Matt pondered what the balloonist had said about the flying creatures just above the clouds. The themes that are beginning to appear in Airbron is never give up on your dreams I know this because of the quote when it says “Every time it flared its wings, the right shot ours to its full length, but the left never quite made it. Perhaps it had been injured, or maybe its left wing was unnaturally stunted, making it incapable of flight.” From this we can see that because Matt never gave up on what Benjamin the balloonist said he actually found a winged creature. My book is structured by giving glimpse to the next chapter in the proceeding chapters.
