Authors message

The authors message of the book "fish in a tree"by Lynda Mullaly Hunt is fitting in. This is the authors message because Ally has a very hard time fitting in. In the story the author shows how Ally started fitting in and had 0 friends and then she started to make friends. Like shay and her mean friends and Shay friends were mean and made fun of Albert because he wore a broken shoe. Also because Albert gets bullied it means that he does not fit in like how Ally never fit in. One quote is "huh huh look at his shoes its broken are you poor". This shows that he does not fit in at all. Also Ally wants to fit in so she starts to try to make friends by fitting in with everything like Albert getting bullied also when the kids were making fun of jessica when they were trying to figure the box out. One detail is "IT is a baseball". Then the kids made fun of her and Ally wanted to fit in so she stared talking. So Ally wants to fit in by caring about about what everybody says.

authors message

Dua-  The author's message is always try and express your problems to someone so that they can help you fix it. i think this because in the book fish in a tree it says, " can you help me." she says this to Travis because she knows she cant do it so she asked for help.

Zoe- The authors message is if you be nice to other people, other people will be nice to you. This is significant because according to the text, it said, "I hold her gaze as i hand half the flowers to Keisha", this quote explains to me that if you be nice to others they will pay you in return with something nice.

Manveer- The author messages is that not thinking twice before doing something bad or something really to make a person mad. This can be seen when ally said "So. when she took a piece of cake out of her lunch box, I reached over, sunk my fingernails through the frosting, grabbed a hunk, and stuffed it in my mouth." This line is important because, she wanted to show that shay can't mess with anyone including her and anyone else.

Author's Message of "A Fish In A Tree"

Lucas, Stan, Jeter, Andrew                               iSlav™                                                     6/21/18


                        The author's message is that people should not be judged by how smart they are because everyone is smart in different ways. If you force a person to believe that they are not smart they will never succeed, Einstein was dumb when he was a child but no one pushed him down and now is considered one of the smartest person in the world. Ally is a great child with a great mind, except she has been pushed down so much that she now  believes it and she puts her expectations very low. One quote that proves this "Everybody is smart in different ways. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will live its life believing it is stupid." This quote is significant because this shows how Ally believed that she was stupid and the Author's message is you shouldn't be judged by your smartness because it can cause long term affects, because people are unique smart in different ways.        

City of Bones - By: Cassandra Clare
What is the author's message?

The author's message is LOVE. In the book, mostly all of the characters are faced with the consequences of love. For example, Clary's mother, Jocelyn, who was once married to Valentine, broke up when she finds out that Valentine was only using the Mortal Cup for his own greed. When that happened, it caused chaos to the Shadowhunters. Clary was faced with the consequences when she fell in love with Jace. She later found out that he was her long lost brother. Simon was faced with this, too. He fell in love with Clary 10 years ago, when they were little children. But before he was able to confess to Clary, he found out that Clary liked someone else, which was Jace, and not him. When they fell in love with other people, they had consequences happen to them in return. 

Author's Message of City Of Ashes

           In Cassandra Clare's series, "The Mortal Instruments" in book two, City of Ashes; Alec Lightwood a Shadowhunter is gay. He is in a so called, "relationship" with a warlock who is Magnus Bane. He is afraid to come out of the closet, because the Clave, the society that keeps track of Shadowhunters shuns queer Shadowhunters. Alec is afraid to come out to his parents for this reason. However, when Clary discovers the fact that she can draw runes that are not in the Grey Book, she draws a rune called; "Fearless." This rune allows the bearer to be fearless in times of fear. Such as fighting a greater demon, or coming out of the closet. From page 286 Alec bears the Fearless rune. Thus which makes him fearless. Fearless enough to come out to his parents. When Alec tells attempts to tell his parents, he could have said something else but, he tried to say that he was gay. His parents kept trying to tell him it wasn't important but it was. A quote from the book showing this is, "This is important, you see I'm not just seeing anyone, I'm seeing a Downworlder. Not any Downworlder, but a war-" This shows that Alec had enough confidence in himself to say this. What the author is trying to convey is that, you must have enough confidence in yourself to say what you need to say. So that you can let others know. Know what's going on with you. Your issues. This is what Cassandra Clare was possibly trying to convey.

The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan

The author's message of The Forest of Hands and Teeth is that you should always hold hope and not doubt the brighter side of things even when life brings you hardships. The author is trying to tell us about the difficulties life may bring and how Mary deals with them. Mary is the type of person who doesn't give up to accomplish her dreams, a life that doesn't bring sorrow and depression.  Many would not be able to still hold positivity after all she has went through. She strives to keep believing in a better and happier life. Sometimes she would have some doubt in the future and how things will continue, but she would never give up in the challenges she is facing. One quote that supports our thinking is "I can hear the others behind me, hear Cass yelling that she doesn't want to keep going. To leave her alone. But I do not wait." This demonstrates how eager Mary is to continue down the path and find a life that she always longed for. Another piece of text evidence that shows Mary's determination is when she says "It has to be here, I tell them."

THE FOREST OF HANDS AND TEETH

In the book  "The Forest Of Hands And Teeth" there is a lot of mixed messages. There is love, leadership, good vs. evil, and trust. In this book a message is love whereas its about finding true love and the complications of it. There is love everywhere fake and real. Mary has two lovers, and the worst part, they are brothers. There's a lot of drama its like a square because Cassandra, Mary's friend is also involved. Mary loves Travis, Travis loves Mary and Cassandra, Cassandra loves Travis and Harry. One quote that shows this is where it said , "Because not only had I lost Travis and Harry when they both fell in love with you, I lost you as well." This is significant because it shows the love between the characters and the bond that they have. They have a complicated life, finding love, and fighting evil.

reflecting on authors message

what we think the authors message is fitting in because ally has a hard time fitting in. But in the story the author shows how ally started fitting in. In the story ally had no friends and she could not fit in so she started hanging out with shay and her mean friends and then she started making fun of other kids like Albert just because she does not fit in. like in chapter 14 they were in groups to figure out what was in a box and in that group she started making friends like Jessica  started being nice. she is starting to make more friends. and they don't care that she  is dumb. like in the page 77 were it says " I tilt it again with my palm on the side of the box. "i think its a baseball," i say, handing it to Jessica. she does the same test and surprises me by saying, "i agree. fells like a baseball." in that quote it shows that ally was starting to make friends. This is why ally's message is fitting in because she cares about what everybody say's so she wants to fit in with everybody else. 

Reflecting on Author's message

In the book '' Fish in a tree'' by Lynda Mullaly Hunt the author's message to the readers is that it doesn't matter if you act weird or if you can't write all that matters is that you are confident and be nice. Also, you all have talents and you  can show it off no matter what. The author is tying to tell the reader to be , confident, talented, intelligent, and  to fit in. The Author wants the readers to understand that many kids all over face problems where they begin to feel isolated or lonely. The author wants the kids or adults reading ''Fish in a tree'' that every kid has their own problems to deal with. So you should be nice and kind to your classmates, students or colleagues.  This can be seen when in the book it said, "here, Ally.your the best at this.". This quote exemplifies that Ally always thought that because she couldn't
read or write she was useless and dumb. But then she finds out that she is really good at finding things/ identifying things and she is very talented.

fish in a tree🌳🐟

In the book fish in a tree written by Lynda Mullaly hunt, the book is given an authors message this authors message was that nobody goes unnoticed everybody is seen. in the book this is shown in chapter 14 boxed in boxed out when their split in groups  each group is given a shoe box with something in it and you must find what it is when ally kept getting good guesses and this boy  in her group told her quote " its cool that your so good at this" and ally then says quote " i forget to say thank you because i'm so shocked but then i also forget to be nervous talking to everyone and feeling like...like i can do this as well as everyone else and it is the best. the best feeling ever." this shows how ally is finally confident enough to actually be in these activities.

Authors message on Fish in a tree

              In the book Fish in a Tree the author Lynda Mullaly Hunt shows the message that to not let people judge on who you are this is seen in chapter 14 "boxed in and boxed out" where Ally's new teacher Mr.Daniels gives Ally's class a assignment which is to try and find out what is inside a closed box by doing anything but opening it to find out and as Ally's group continues her other teammates acknowledge how Ally uses a lot of different  procedures to try and find out what is in the box then Oliver says "here you go Ally you're good at this" this surprises Ally because nobody really compliments her for doing anything, everyone think shes dumb however for once somebody thinks that shes good at something even after people teasing her Ally's self esteem is down and is forced to think that she really is dumb and can't do anything good in her class this also makes Ally believe that there's no point in doing work if shes dumb this is shown in the first chapter where Ally is supposed to write a page that describes herself but Ally doesn't want to do it and after some talking with the teacher when Ally does agree to do it she just writes from top to bottom "Why?".

What is the author's message? (Fish in a Tree)

I believe the author's message in the story is to teach readers about gaining confidence.  Landy Mullaly Hunt projects this message by putting Ally into a situation.  As her school year goes on, Ally meets the personalities of her classmates that help become more confident and have faith in herself.  When Ally notices that others are upset or shy she starts to change.  The night in the auditorium when Ally's friend got in trouble she gave her friend flowers to make her feel better.  "Mrs. Muldoon has turned around to stare.  Her mouth is open wide enough for a bird to build a nest in.  I hole her gaze as I hand half the flowers to Keisha.  'Well, she can have some of mine, then.'  In the end, neither of us had flowers when we walked into the auditorium.  But we had bigger smiles than anyone else."  I felt so proud of Ally when she did that for Keisha.  Mrs. Muldoon is just a women without a heart!  I guess she also doesn't know what sharing is since she's probably never done it before.  The flowers were from Jessica's father, anyway.

Albert & Ally personalty

Albert is the sort of person who does not care about others opinion about him this shows he has high self esteem .quote that shows this is when Albert defends Suki when people are making fun of he and what she bought to school and when a girl was saying that she eats lobster because its expensive but then Albert says ¨did you know that lobster was given to slaves?¨

Ally has two sides she is caring but she also just wants to really fit in so she could be mean just so Ally can fit in. Ally can help a lot of people and she cares about people but she can be a bum because she can be rude and be a brat to people because since she can´t read so she can get bullied so we can say she is a little desperate to fit in. Ally has two sides one is caring and the other is somebody that just really want to fit in. Ally has two sides as you can see and she is so sweet but sometimes a bum.

Theory for Ally and Albert

Ally is the sort of person who distracts her classmates to hide that she is unable to read.

One detail from the book is "One day in class m.r oliver told ally to read then she wrote on the desk, m.r oliver said go to the office she said"no"This shows that the kids were lauhging at her so it means that she  distracted the class.Also she said "the prinsible is not her"So she distrataction the class but then she went in the end.

Albert is the sort of person who gets teased and hangs out with them. This can be seen when it says "haha he has broken sneakers so its a sand'e".This shows that they make fun of him and he sits with them in luck so that's how he gets fun of.WE feel sad for him because they are not true friends because they make fun of her.If i was him i would not be their friend and i will snitch on them because that's not nice.

What type of people the characters are.

   Ally is a person who is unsure, unintelligent and unteachable.

   Oliver is a person who is talkative, open minded and imaginative.

   Shay is a person who is snotty, mean and rude.

   Albert is a person who is intelligent, honest and friendly.

   Mrs. Hall is a person who is vulnerable and anger manageable.

   Mrs. Silver is a person who is serious, undemanding and mean.

   Mr. Daniels is a person who is friendly, honest and playful.

   This is how I describe the characters in "Fish in a tree".

ally and Albert

Albert, is the sort of person who is calm, but also bright

Quote 1 : Albert : "Albert puts 1 in his mouth.he eats it and looks like he is in pain.his even watered.he says with a gasp,i like it Suki. thank you."

 This shows that, Albert  tells what he thinks eating the pea and showing it very proudly.

ally is the type of person who is smarter than you think  and sarcastic one quote from the story is, "Ally has been smart enough to fool a lot of smart people. Every time she lands in  a new school, she is able to hide her inability to read.

this shows that people know that she cant read but she is able to hide it in by bluffing or distracting the teacher.

Ally and albert character traits

  Ally is the type of person who regrets decisions because when she insulted Albert she felt bad and regretted it. She then apologized the next day.  She is impulsive because she doesn't think before she speaks. And acts out in class without thinking.

 Albert is the type of person who doesn't care about what others think about him because when Ally apologized, He said he didn't care about what she said and he didn't feel sad. He is also the person who likes to learn. 

The sort of person.

Albert is the sort of person who is kind, respectful, and he would pretend so he/she wouldn't feel bad. He does it in a good way. When people are too scare to eat Suki's hone-senbei and wasabi peas, Suki feels bad. So Albert said he likes it. He looks for a way to cheer someone up. Two quote from the text is, "He eats it but looks like he's in pain. He says with a gasp, I like it, Suki." This shows that Albert is kind, respectful, and he pretends so he/she wouldn't feel bad. Ally is the sort of person who is shy and quiet because in the beginning of the book it stated,"Everyone laugh again.She puts up her hand.Anyone else who makes a sound gives up their recess."This quote showed that it Ally's friend and Ally don't want to be with her because her friend was laugh by everybody and Ally is shy of that and don't want to be embrassed.

Character theories

   Albert is the sort of person who ignores the hate and embraces himself. Albert wears the same shoes everyday and the same flint shirt and he knows his shoes are worn out but he still wears them. He is also a very nice person for forgiving Ally after making fun of him with Shay and Jessica. In the book it says ""I'm sorry about the cafeteria thing" His eyebrows rise "That didn't bother me at all. No need to apologize"" And this shows he is forgiving.
   Ally is the sort of person who doesn't defend herself when being bullied and made fun of. Ally lies about herself to make herself feel better and other people, like her mom, "They break into laughter and, over near the kitchen, my mom smiles. She thinks I'm boning with them" but she was really getting bullied and made fun of, and never told her mom about being bullied.

Albert And Ally Are The Sort of Person who...

Jeter ,Lucas , Andrew, Stan                             


               iSlav presents:
    The sort of person that Ally and Albert are.

                    Ally feels as if she is useless, and that shes counterproductive. Ally knows that her teachers don't like her, she thinks that nobody likes her at all. When Mr Daniels came to the school she finally felt as if somebody cared for her, and that he understood her problems. This can be seen when the author wrote "She sighs as I leave her office, and i know shes tired of me. Even I'm tired of me." (page 15.) This quote is significant because it shows how Ally feels about herself, all because the teachers dont like her.
                    Albert is the sort of person who does not care about what society thinks about him. He makes decisive decisions. He is anti-social, ignorant and have unique opinions. One quote that supports this is "But given the choice of buying new sneakers that I will out grow in three months or a chemistry set that I can use for a undefined amount of time, this seemed the clear choice". This is significant because this shows how Albert us decisive about his choices and thinking about the future.

In conclusion, Albert and Ally are two unique people yet seem so alike in a story they both need friends and they are outcasts from school even though they are nice and awesome. 

Fish in a Tree: character theory: Albert/Ally

Albert is the sort of person who doesn't care about what other people think of him. He's a very smart kid who probably thinks that other people are intimidated by his intelligence. Ally seems to be the opposite of Albert personality-wise. Ally seems to care too much about what other think. Ally insulted Albert because she didn't want the other girls to think she was lame. However, Albert did not care about the insult.

Albert and Ally's personality

Albert is the sort of person who is tough and that doesn't care about what people think about him. This can be seen when it said, " I am going to feel even worse when the shade comes down over Albert's face. When he looks sad.  But that never comes. He just stands there eating Doritos and studying us like we are lab mice.". This quote exemplifies that Albert doesn't care about what other people think of him. Ally is the sort of person who holds a lot of anger in her and the person who only express her feelings by drawing. This is significant  because it says, "I wish i had my sketchbook of impossible things its the only thing that makes me feel like i'm not a waste of space. "

Q: What sort of person is Albert?

A: Albert is the sort of person who's sort of savage and a careless dude. He's savage and careless because he came back with a sweet comeback that made Shay and Jessica feel, less cool and made Ally feel... wrong. This can be seen in the page 63 of fish in a tree. "Actually, I don't take my appearance lightly. I take you lightly." This shows why Albert is savage and careless dude. This dude doesn't care what anyone thinks of him.
Q: What sort of person is Ally?
A: Ally is the sort of person who has mixed feelings. Either she's sad about being left-out in school or disappointed because of letting someone loyal down with a group of "cool" girls. She also feels sorry for people from time to time. Like Suki who's grandpa died or That same Albert that day and next day.

Albert is the sort of person who, Ally is the sort of person who?

                   In the book Fish In A Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt there are 2 characters Albert and Ally. Albert is a kid who is described by Ally "Would get a better grade than me if he just sneezed into the paper" and would wear the same shirt, shoes and pants everyday while Ally isn't confidence in herself and thinks she is dumb because of other people opinions. The way we would describe Albert as Confidence/ Savage during our reading of chapter 11 "Scrambled eggs" Jessica invites Ally to sit with them and Ally accepts, soon Jessica and Shay make fun of Albert's shoes as they were cut out from the back after signaling him over Jessica and the girls make fun of him and say that "what are those slippers for, next he'll be wearing a robe" caught up in wanting to be cool Ally also makes fun of Albert for wearing slippers and wearing a robe next time however soon Albert makes a comeback on their teasing and says "I don't take my appearance lightly, I take you lightly" *OK, OK for a minute pull this in and just shout out ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh* were done next well see what kind of person Ally is. Ally is the kind of person who just wants to be sociable however because she is made fun of for being dumb she is really not taken serious by other girls and because of this Ally is socially awkward this is also seen in chapter 11 "Scrambled eggs" when after a seat change she tries to be friends with Keisha. Ally blurts out "I don't mind being your friend" when Ally knows that Keisha isn't interested in being Ally's friend.

Fish in a tree

In ¨Fish In A Tree¨ Albert is the sort of person who does not care what others say about him.He won´t even care if someone judges his appearance.Albert is a kind of person who lets go of things easily and doesn´t hold grudges.On page 66 it states ¨that didn´t bother me .No need to apologize¨. He won´t get bothered when someone judges him but gets bothered by other weird things.In the book Ally is a sort of person who is regretful.After she said something mean to Albert Ally felt guilty.Ally felt bothered since she did something mean with Shay.Based on page 63 it states ¨and then my heart sinks,because i realize that i just was.She thought she wasn´t mean but then she finally realized she did act mean.

Fish in a tree

In the book "fish in a tree" a new character is discovered, his name is Albert. Albert is the sort of person who is really self- assured. this character trait is shown when he talks back to Keisha this can be seen in the book when he says "i think it curious that you worry about what i have on my feet when three of you are wearing red shirts-it represents red alerts and high fevers red numbers show loss in accounting red represents danger"

while in the other hand ally is the other way around while Albert is self-assured and ally is the sort of person who is really self-conscious thinking what other think of her and she is thinking how Albert was so confident how he talked back to Keisha in a way and she thought in the book quote "and with that he turns and is gone before can pull out other mean thing and i wish i was more like Albert" and she says quote " i'm not perfect,but at least i'm not mean"

this shows the  character traits that both characters have through out the book.

        In the book Fish In A Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt, Albert is the sort of person who doesn't really care about the way others think about him.  Albert is also very creative and intelligent.  He states many interesting facts throughout the story.  Ally is the sort of person who notices her bad actions towards Albert.  She felt guilty after making fun of his clothing.  She felt bad because she was a bully just like Shay and Jessica.  "Something going on?'  'Mean kids at school.'  'Oh, Ally Bug.  I'm sorry you had to put up with that.  What happened?'  'Well....the kids who were mean?'  'Yeah?'  'I was one of them."
