Title of Book: //The name of the book that I am doing a book report on is// //The Divide//

Author: //The name of the author who wrote this book is named Elizabeth Kay.//

Why did you choose to read this book?: //I choose this book because it seemed interesting and the class was doing a Literature Group.//

Theme (Main Idea of the Book): //The theme of the book is that if you have faith and courage you can go farther in life.//

Setting (Time and Place): //In Costa Rica, the Divide, and the flip-side of the Divide(called the Otherworld).//

Plot (What Happens): //Felix(a main character) passes out the Divide(Costa Rica) and wakes out in the flip-side of it( the Divide). He must find his back home and maybe Felix can save his heart.//

Characters: //Felix, Betony(an elfin child), Ironclaw(a griffin), Snakeweed(a pixie), and two// //lickits.//

Fictional books always have main characters. Describe one main character in this book in detail. How did he/she look? What age was he/she? What was his/her personality like? What was the importance of this character to the story? Did you like this character? Why or Why not? //The character I am doing is Betony. Betony is an elf(in the story she is called a tangle- child). In the story, it doesn't really tell what age Betony is, but I'm guessing that she is about 11 to 12 years old. Her personality is spunky, and always has a taste for adventure. She is always there for Felix(her new found friend), always ready to help when needed. Betony's important to the story because she goes along with Felix to help him get back home and try to help him find a cure for Felix's heart. Betony is also helpful in another way//. //She goes with Felix because she helps Felix learn the mythical beats' ways and more. I think this because it seem like Betony wants Felix to come back again and already know about some the culture and language the next time he visits. I like this character because Betony is upbeat and always has a taste for adventure kind like me. Another reason I like this character because just like in the book, Betony is always there for Felix just when like I try to be there when one of my friends is down in the dumps, too.//

Main Events: //There are a lot of Main Events in the story so I will do the very important events. First: Felix passes out on the Divided and wakes up in the Otherworld. Two: Later on in the story, Felix is taken away by Snakeweed and then put in jail. Now he must find a way out. Three: Then, Betony and Felix find a book on how to cure a heart disorder and they discover they need a feather to heal his heart. Later, Betony and Felix meet Thornbeak(Ironclaw's female).// //Fourth: Felix starts having trouble again so Betony helps by using a griffin feather and saying the right spell saves Felix's heart. Finally: Felix goes home safe and sound and now he no longer has a heart disorder.//

Problem/Conflict: //The problem in the story is that Felix passes out in the Divide and wakes in the flip-side of it(the Otherworld). Now he must find away out of the Otherworld and get back home and maybe save his life. Can he do it along with his new found friends or will he be captured by Snakeweed ?//

How did the story make you feel? //How I felt about the story was ok. I say this because to me the book didn't have much "juice" that I it would have, but hey I still enjoyed the book very much.//

What new things did you learn from this book? //I learned that with faith you can get to your goals.//

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? //No. No because if the friend does not like magic and mythical beast then this isn't the book for them. If they do then this is the book for them.//

Conclusion: //So in conclusion this is my book report on the Divide.
