Lord of the Flies 1

         For my classic I believe I will read Lord of The Flies.  From what I have heard from friends who has discussed it, it is about this group of boys who get trapped on an island and have to work together to survive and be rescued. I have also heard that at times the book get weird. From research I see that William Golding, the author, is a very prestigious man. He has won a Nobel Peace Prize for his literature and was even knighted by the Queen. The website says that Lord of the Flies is a global phenomenon and a must read.  I predict that the boys on the island will have something to do with a plane crash. I also feel like the kids will eat each other. I don’t know. I am looking forward to this read.

  1. That seems like a very interesting and action paced classic. Not many classics are like that so it sets up for a good book. The kids eating each other would be a big turn. That is kind of gross but survival is survival. Thats cool the author was knighted.

  2. Based on what you said you knew about the book, the first thing that came to my mind was the book Hatchet which is about a boy who gets stranded on an island and attempts to get rescued. Let me know how this book goes because it is a classic that I have been wanting to read and something that seems very interesting.
