Character Commandant - Vivian section 4

Page 336
Jacob and the other kids were planning on what to do next. Since Miss Peregrine can not turn back into her human form. " I asked Emma how were going to navigate. After all, none of the children had been off the island in nearly eighty years, and Miss Peregrine couldn't speak or fly." Jacob is trying to take charge of the situation.

Page 336
Jacob and Emma went to go look for the map in the house. While looking for the map Jacob and Emma found some things that could help Millard. "On our way out, we found alcohol and Laudanum and proper bandages for Millard. Once we'd helped clean and dress his wound, we sat down to examine the book. Here Jacob is thinking about others.

Page 337
Is it true? Yes it is. Jacob has decided to stay with Miss Peregrines and the children. There might not be a way for him to go back so is he sure he wants to stay? "Well then," I said, "it's a good thing i'm coming with you." Emma spun to look at me. "Oh, that's wonderful!" she cried, and hugged me. "Are you certain?" I told her I was." In here Jacob is being certain. He knows whats best for him and the children.

Page 339
Its time to say goodbye? Jacob went back to tell his dad the truth but he wasn't there. So Jacob sat down with a pen and paper explaining everything but it was no good. Just when Jacob was throwing away the letter his father came in.  His dad was furious that Jacob had lied to him. He wanted to go home and he told Jacob to pack his bag. Jacob is very nervous in this situation because he's not sure how his dad is going to react.

Page 342
Emma, Olive and Millard all showed up to help Jacob. His father believe that the whole thing was a dream and went back to bed. Jacob felt bad to leave his dad like that. A letter with no proof what so ever. Luckily Emma had proof. A picture of her and Abe. She also wrote a letter to Jacobs father. When she was done Jacob was ready to live his parents. "When she finished writing, she gave it to me. I looked at both sides and then fished my letter from the trash, smoothed it, and left it on the table with the photo.
" Ready to go?" I said
My friends were standing in the doorway, waiting for me.
"Only if you are," Emma replied.

Quoter- Vivian section 3

Page. 206
              "Yours is a world they can never be part of, Mr. Portman. So what's the use in filling their heads with grand talk about the exotic wonders of the future?"

I picked this quote because it shows that Miss Peregrines really cares about the kids and their safety. It also show that Miss Peregrine thinks that both worlds are so different that its unless to fill their heads with dreams and wonders.

Page. 219
             "You mean you actually raid the village." "Smash it up, chase people around, take what we like, burn things down. Its all a good laugh.... Well they're back right as rain the next day and don't remember nothing about it."

This quote talks about what some of the peculiar children do for fun. Some kids think that it doesn't matter what they do because the next day will just restart and no one will remember.

Page. 240/241
                    "Emma shook her head." "Is that really what you think?" "If I could do something spectacular like you, don't you think I would've noticed by now?" " I'm not meant to tell you this," she said, "but common people can't pass through time loops."

I've been wonder all this time if Jacob was peculiar or not. I guess he is! I chose this quote because in the beginning of the book Jacob thought of himself as a normal kid. Little did he know he was just like the other peculiar children and his grandfather.

Page. 241
             "Abe had a rare and peculiar talent, something almost no one else could do." "And then she met my eyes and said, "He could see the monsters."

From the beginning of the book we didn't know much about Abe, Jacobs grandfather until now. We now know that he was peculiar. He has the powers to see monsters. Maybe thats why he was killed. Like Emma said in the quote above Abe had a rare talent almost no one could do.

Quoter #3 - Michelle


Quoter #3




   PAGE 352, The day was warm, but a cool breeze came of the
   water.



   made me think no matter how your day want
the weather is sunny warm well there is a   new breeze makes you smile and appreciate   what you have.

 
   PAGE 352, We’d brought none of the old photo albums
   with us; maybe this would be the first picture in a
   brand new one.


   When I finished reading this quote I thought of how
   good it is to start a new page in there life. Beginning
   with a new page in there life yet still remembering
   the memories they had on the island.  


   PAGE 351, Through the smoking charred woods and the
   flat bog dug with bomb holes.



   I picked this quote because it gives you 
more understanding of the setting which 
is a small island. And by the way they
described the island its seems like
   a dark unsafe place you would not want to
be.


   PAGE 352, And yet my old life was as impossible to
   return to as the children’s bombed house.



   I choose this one because it made me see 
that no matter what Jacob will do nothing
 will be the same as when his grandfather 
was alive no matter how hard he tries.





   PAGE 352, I realized that leaving wouldn't be like I had 
imagined,like  casting off a weight.

   Jacob thought that leaving would be hard but once it come to it 
and he had to leave it was easier than he thought it would be. I
picked because I can relate to it because I always think it will
be hard but it not.

Page 282 
"She can do what she likes," said Bronwyn. "She's the bird." 
I chose this quote because I feel like it emphasizes Miss Peregrines importance and power. They all respect and realize her position as their protector. She's kind of like a mother to them because they all get sort of annoyed with her but they still love Miss Peregrine.

Page 294
"How many other roles in my life had this chameleon played?"
Jacob, Emma, Bronwyn and Enoch all go outside of the loop to go to try to talk to a man who they believe was attacked by a hollowgast. While there out the loop they meet a wight who has posed as many people in Jacobs life. He was Jacobs bus driver, therapist and was there the day Grandpa Portman. Jacob told his therapist everything about the island so he knew exactly where to find them. So the wight follows Jacob to the island to come after the peculiars and Miss Peregrine.


Page 309
"He stuffed this in my pocket before he left. Said if we tried to come after him, this is what would happen." 
The wight, Jacob's therapist gave them a picture of a dead bird next to a gun to try and scare them. He was trying to send the message that if they came after him he would kill Miss Peregrine. So now everybody is scared to go after them but they know they need to save Miss Peregrine.

Page 321
"If it means I get to melt that wights face off," she said, little arcs of flames pulsing between her hands, "then absolutely."
Here Emma and Jacob are talking about going after the wight. Their both angry and can't wait to get back Miss Peregrine from the wight. This quote starts the build up for the big ending.

Page 352
"We rowed faster."
This is the last sentence of the book talking about how all the kids are getting in boats to try to find another loop. They were getting ready to row away and then in the distance they see big battleships so they began to row away faster.

Page 210
"Forgive me. I continue to underestimate the breadth of your ignorance." Miss Peregrine says to Jacob. She sounds very condescending and makes Jacob feel nervous. When she says 'forgive me' she's being sarcastic and trying to make Jacob realize he's in the wrong.

Page 218
"Whatever," I said "You brought it up." Jacob is mood here is frustrated. He feels this way because the other kids all know stuff he doesn't. They all discuss other secrets and when Jacob tries to ask they say they can't tell him. Now Jacob is starting to get annoyed. The feeling these words create is sort of bitter.

Page 221

"Would you wake him? Oh please Enoch." This quote is from one of the children on the island, Bronwyn. She's asking the other boy Enoch if he'll wake up her brother. Her tone is very forlorn. It makes you feel sorry for her, that she lost her brother. 

Page 232

"I'm really, really sorry," I repeated. "I never do things like this." Jacob is very regretful after he gets caught. He goes into Emma's room and finds letter between her and Jacob's grandfather. His curiosity gets the better of him and so he goes through the letters. She catches him and gets very angry so he feels remorse. It makes you feel Jacob's guilt and Emma's anger.

Page 247

"I'd always known I was strange." Jacob says once he realizes that he too is peculiar. He's not really upset or anything he's just kind of calm about it. I think he's sort of glad he has more of an excuse to stay with the peculiars and not return to his average, boring life.
