Q&A Skog's island

1.Bouncer wanted to stay and fight for freedom and Jenny wanted to leave and go find a peaceful island. How do you feel about what Bouncer wanted to do and how do you feel about Jenny’s suggestion?
I think Bouncer is too hip-shooting.If they decided to stay and fight for freedom,they would be eaten by cats before they started to attack.I like Jenny's idea(even it's not practical).Some mice sailed the ship and go to look for an island to survive.It sounds a little ridiculous in the truth.But it's an adventure for mice in the story.
2.How did Bouncer become the Captain of the ship?
He claimed that he was the leader of the group and thought it for granted.He didn't ask the others' opinion.He just wanted to be the lord of the mice.
3.When they learned that they had been sailing toward the North Pole, Bouncer announced that he would quit being the Captain. Why did Bouncer decided to take control again when they reached the Island of the Skog?
He didn't have any responsibility.He just wanted to be a controler and didn't want to face the difficulties.He only wanted to enjoy the power of the king.
4.Think about the part in the story where Bouncer says, “We will build a great kingdom dedicated to the freedom of mice, and I will be the king!” What are your ideas?
I like the front of the sentence.It means every free mouse can live here to enjoy the peaceful life.
5.At the end of the story, Bouncer tells everyone to line up and they will sing and he will lead music. Why does the author have Bouncer do this at the end of the book?
The auther wants to make a happy ending.It looks like that everyone deals with others happily.
6.Write you own question about the story. Begin your question with, “Why…?”
Why does the skog live on the island alone?Does it go to the island for the same goal with mice?
7.Here is one question from Jalen: “Why did the mice wear so big costumes?”
It is more comfortable and they dress as human-beings to show their personalities and activities.
8.Another question from Ms. Lee: In some book reviews they started their comments by saying “Jenny and her city-mouse friends searched for a peaceful place to live.” Why is Jenny, instead of Bouncer, viewed as the leading character?
Bouncer is too bossy and doesn't have any responsibility.Jenny is smart and more friendly.
