I just finished this book...it wasn't the best book that I haven read but it told me alot about Iwo Jima. I wouldn't recommend this book to others because they would just put it down but if you are into history then I would reccomend it. But overall it was very historic

This book isn't as good as I thought it would be but since my last post the boy has been still talking to people about his father in Iwo Jima. I did look ahead in the book and it starts to talk about the war so hopefully next week the book will get interesting.

So far in this book there isn't any conflicts. In my book a boy learns about how his father was a hero on Iwo Jima and goes off to visit Iwo Jima with his mother. In my opinion, later in this book there will be conflicts because he will describe the battle of Iwo Jima

The round character in this book is James. He is the main person of this story talking about how his life changed learning about his father and he is the one who gets described and describes everything.

A flat character in this book so far is the mother. From what James Bradley described her as, she was shy and didn't do much. In this story she hasn't talked much or been part of the story that much, she did partend in the journy to Iwo Jima. When she was apart of this book she was kind of just there and didnt really do anything.

In my story that I just started they did't say many names, but the static character would be any of the brothers or sisters because they did not go through any change, in my opionion I think that they will later on in this book because it will go into detail about what their father went through in war.(Iwo Jima)

The dynamic character in my book is the father because at first he was one of the men who raised the flag in Iwo Jima and he said it was one of the happiest days of his life, after the war he became very depressed and never mentioned it again. Though the public new what he did they respected him that much to not speak of it
