We talked about all of the things that made us think different about the book. We talked about the things that made us have our opinion on the things we did. we talked about how zero got sick and why did he steal so much. Some more questions we about Stanley was how doesn't he see the hole when he was driving the water truck, what kind of curse Stanley family had , and how did the shoes fall on him and who's shoes were they. some general question was why were the geckos in the hole and how fast would they kill if you get bitten.

What I would say (Drake
Why did you pick up the shoes in the first place? You wouldn't be in this mess and I wouldn't have to be writing about it. Do you know what is happening you will go to jail for nothing you didn't even do anything wrong. You could have left them there and you would be sitting at home instead of digging a 5 by 5 hole everyday
But on the bright side you don't have to do anything like chores and mow the lawn BUT YOU ARE DIGGING A 5 BY 5 HOLE EVERY DAY. Don't you think you can get out of camp steal a bunch of canteens and start walking I mean you made it to the mountain you could have left earlier so you didn't suffer the heat.
You are pretty buffed up now so now you won't be bullied or messed with you can also be a football player. You are still pretty stupid for taking those dumb shoes. You are a fan right you should have realised that they were a pro baseball players shoes. I needed to ask all those questions because you could have prevented the horrible events that took place

What Would I Say (AustinR)
Stanley I don't know why you are not taking the water that Zero is trying to give you. Also you don't need to be having a challenge with Zero because you guys are really good friends. what would make you want to have a challenge? Why would you not drink water and even tho zero has some but you don't want any. You should be safe and drink the water.
Remember like a few days ago when you helped a friend out and you took him to the top of the mountain. Good job that was a true friend because you helped him out when he was in need. Why did you do it? Why did you not drag him instead of carry him up the very big mountain. Also why did you put zero inside of the creek that was not a very smart idea because he could have gotten more hurt then he was before.
Stanley people that don't drink water can get hurt back. They can get dehydrated which means lack of water and that is not good for a 15 year old boy. Don't wait for zero to take a drink first you get one first be the bigger person. Finally if your mouth is dry and raspy then get a drink and you will like it.

Talking to Stanley (Aaron V.)
What if i had the chance to talk to Stanley yelnats. I would talk to him about his decisions. First I would congratulate him . I would do that because of his hard work and how far his gone during the time hes been at camp green lake. I would also talk to him about his parents because he doesn't know what they feel but us the readers do .
I would tell to Stanley that hes doing a fine job and that if he keeps going he will get far. I would tell him to keep on doing those decisions . I would tell him to stay with his friends that he has right now . I would tell him to stay positive. I would also say to never give up because at the end it might pay up for it.
The last thing would tell him is to keep his head up and to listen to others .he does a well job staying on task. I wouldn't yell at him. I wouldn't do that because hes been working hard at everything . Stanley hasn't given up to any of the challenges that he has to face int tho book. I would just congratulation .
