10/16 Assinment on Dimonds in the Shadow

I infer that Alake didn't really want to be there with the Finch family. I think that she could be really scared about being in America. She must also be scared about being found by the 5th refugee. I also think that she dosen't talk because she didn't feel like interacting with their way of life. She might also not know how to speak English.

First Light By Rebecca Stead

In First Light so far, Thea and Mattais were looking for a secret passage way to the surface world. They took a water blower from the waterwheel. They started to dig in the desigenated area and thought that they wouldn't find what they were looking for. Meanwhile, Peter was lying in bed when he heard his mother talking in her sleep. When she stoped, Peter's father woke up to calm her down. Then they all went back to sleep.
