Kludd Reflection

Decent Essays
In this book there are many parts where it makes you wonder about why this happened or why did someone do something. First I will be listing three different I wonder sentences. I wonder why Kludd wasn’t really helped or talked to when he was a kid. My evidence for the question is that the author shows how from chapter 1 to chapter 5 get’s his parent’s help, but Kludd only gets to watch. Next Kludd’s brother was always lazy and was disrespectful to his parent’s. Finally This evidence supports my I wonder statement because if Kludd was my kid, I would teach him first since he actually tries so I would want him to be able to do things at the right time.

Next I wonder why Kludd’s brother always makes fun of Kludd, but isn’t better than Kludd. In addition to that if I was trying to surpass my brother, I would work hard at what I am reaching for. Next my evidence was found on the first pages of chapter three. The author states that it was Kludd’s turn to learn how to fly. Of course it was his first time trying, but right after he fell his brother told him “Loser, you’ll never even make it out there alive”. The funny thing is Kludd’s brother had a whole year of training and still couldn't fly. Finally this supports my I wonder statement because if Kludd’s brother believes he’s better at flying why doesn’t he even know how to so he can’t pick on Kludd.

At Least Kludd didn’t help him because Kyle never tried to help Kludd when they were young he only made fun of kludd. My evidence is that when Kyle was fighting in the war of birds he got trapped on a tree in the woods while it was burning down. At the time he was flying away from Kludd. When he was falling into the fire he asked “please brother help me.” This supports my claim because if Kyle really wanted Kludd’s help then he should have been a better

Asking why is very important.…

    In his essay, Bruni states that: “Perhaps because the four of us belong to the same generation-just over eight years separate Mark and Adelle-each understood the others better than our mother, now gone, could ever understand us, or than our father ever will.” Then, to illustrate this idea even further, Bruni tells a story about his childhood. When he could not talk well and was upset because his mom could not figure out what he wanted, his oldest brother named Mark would instantly identify what he needed and bring it to him (01). Because of their ability to understand each other accurately due to their closeness and mutual comprehension of the other, all Bruni’s siblings could understand one another better than anyone else in their lives ever could. Also, having many siblings with differing personalities and characteristics, Bruni felt that each helped him in different areas of his life.…

    The novel, Kindred, exposed me to the un- taught lifestyles of the southern people during slavery. It left me with questions, jaw dropping moments, and surprises, but yet not, of the life styles that were practiced during the 1800s that today we might see in different forms. One event that troubled me the most was reenactment of the slave market. Kevin and Dana were walking away from the Weylin’s home and slave quarters to talk in private when they saw slave children reenacting a slave market. Then Dana said, “Even the games they play are preparing them for their future.”…
