There is a crazed man running around New York City. People thought he was died but he is back moving away from London and now is bringing his terrier to the big apple! While this is all going on there is an orphan boy named Carver around the age of 13. Carvers main adjective so far is to find his parents. He first starts by breaking into a box with all of the kids files that live in the orphanage. He finally picked open the lock and found his name, the only thing that was in his file was a small letter written by his father. The most mysterious thing that the letter said was "I'm not buckled yet and the knife's still nice an sharp foe more grand work".
Know to make things worse for Carver the orphanage is shutting down and know Carver has to find a family to stay of the streets. To help Carver and the other kids find a home the orphanage held a party for all these important people including the President Roosevelt. Carver never found anyone at the party so he decided to sneak away and try and find where his dad was. His dad left him clues in his letter telling Carver were to look (Don't want to spoil anything) so while carver was looking for the spot the orphanage leader Mss.Petty found him but she was not alone. She was with Carvers new legal guardian he was a detective and would help Carver learn how to code and do other detective things like that.
The man that adopted Carver his name was Hawking, Hawking is an older man that is kinda grumpy but also has a small sense of humor. Right away Carver packed his bags and got ready to go and start a new life with this man. Carver soon realized that Hawking was some kind of inventor that invented all different kind of thing like making home appliances better to making better elevators. Carver was amazed when he finally was able to see hawking base where they could make all of these inventions with the help of other scientists. They are not allowed to talk about it so that the government dose not find out it is still not clear why.
In your blog I liked how you included specific facts your writing. When you included these explicit details it helped create an image in my head, in which I can understand how the characters are feeling. I forgot but is Carver, Jack the Ripper? Is Jack a separate character in the book? I found your picture exciting it seems to have been filled with action and suspense. Great Blog Post.
ReplyDeleteReally cool blog. I've seen this book in the classroom but it never caught my attention. After reading this, Ripper is on my to-read list. You write really great summaries without spoiling the story. Good job, Gabe! PS I like your Halloween Trivia gadget.
