Number 18 and the Giant Peach...

After attending South Elgin High School's performance of James and the Giant Peach, students in Room 205 had an opportunity to write their own fantasy! Here's Number 18's take on it!

A young boy named Number 18 was lonely because he had no friends, and people made fun of him. They picked on him because they thought he was a nerd. A kid named Zack made fun of him too.
Number 18 was growing peaches for a peach pie. One grew into a one-hundred pound peach! Number 18 said, "I want some bigger crust to make a pie!"
One day Zack smelled something good so he tried to find the mystery smell. He found Number 18's peach pie, and he said, "Can I have a piece of pie?" Number 18 said, "No!" because of the mean things Zack said.

Questions:

What was your favorite part of the story?
What was the saddest part of the story?
How big was the peach Number 18 used to make his pie?
If you were Number 18, would you let Zack have pie? Why or why not?

  1. What was your favorite part of the story?
    My favorite part of the story was when Number 18 was making a peach pie because usually when I am feeling down, I make a pie.

    What was the saddest part of the story?
    I think the saddest part of the story was when I heard Number 18 was getting made fun of.

    How big was the peach Number 18 used to make his pie?
    The peach that Number 18 used to make his pie was one- hundred pounds.

    If you were Number 18, would you let Zack have pie? Why or Why not?
    If I was Number 18 I would not let Zack have pie because Zack was so rude and he should not be rewarded for something he did wrong.
