In these pages it starts out with Mrs. Pickwell whistling to their kids and then when they sit down for dinner one of the kids asks another who is sitting next to you? When Maniac was next spotted he was on the little league field where there was the meanest and biggest 12 year old that he has ever seen. When he is throwing the ball to the other kids they miss every time But when Maniac is up he hits the ball. He is so surprised.

Great summary. I don't think there is anything to add. Peter

Today I am the discussion director.

My 1st question is why do you think Mr. Beale wont let Manic out of the car when he says it is his stop? I think it is because when he says you can stop here, they are still in the East End when he belongs in the West End.

I agree with what you said. Peter


 * 1) 2- Why do you think Maniac is being so nice to everyone, helping out, and doing choes for Amanda?

I think that he is just being nice. Peter


 * 1) 3- Would you become nice after your friends father didn't let off where you wanted to be?

Yeah, but I would be a bit angry. Peter

Today I am the Passage Picker

It was funny when Maniac ran and then he once again heard Mrs. Pickwell's whistle. He had heard it many times, he had not answered it since his first day in town.
