Reading journal number 1

Dear Mrs. Zrihen
                          I’m reading a book called “Ghost Hunt “ by Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson. The book is about 5 kids that go into haunted houses and capture ghosts.The genre of the book is fiction, because it’s about ghosts mostly. The characters are Mark, Mike, Scott, Henry, Jerry, and the ghosts. The protagonist are the kids, Mike, Mark, Scott, Henry, and Jerry. The antagonist is the ghost. The setting is at home, at houses, and in school. The weather conditions were sunny and dark. The plot structure is at home, then going to search for ghosts, etc. The conflict is ghosts everywhere and scaring kids, and it’s character VS supernatural. The tone is excitement, and the mood is nervous and scary because they hunt ghosts in haunted houses. The theme is obviously haunted. I think that ghosts don't exist because they're fake and few people believe they exist. The conflict of the story is whether they exist and whether they will prove it and catch them. They are scaring people that live with them and it's up to the kids to get the ghosts. (This post will be updated as I finish the book).
