FableHaven

In the book fablehaven, there are two main characters, Kendra and her brother Seth. You could also say that their grandparents, the Sorenson’s are main characters. The genre of this book is fictional. I know that this book is fictional because it talks about fairies and other creatures that exist only in our imagination! There are two settings for the book, the house and the forest. I think that the character development changed for Seth and Kendra tremendously! It changed for them by them realizing that they shouldn’t judge people before you get to know them, I think that’s what the theme is also, just because someone looks different, or doesn’t wear the same clothes as you doesn’t mean that they’re going to be bad people. The author’s purpose is to entertain and make the books to come more entertaining and to fill your mind with curiosity. This book is about two kids who go visit their grandparents but they find creatures in the woods and have to try to save the whole wide world! Because if they don’t, the world could possibly end!!!

Near the middle, Brom dies from monsters sent by Galbatorix and he meets Murtagh. At the end of the book, Eragon gets to The Varden and he saves the rebels from Galbatorix. I think that the Theme to Eragon is that you need to stand up to what you believe in no matter what. The Author’s Purpose is to entertain. There are many settings, the main ones being the towns, the lake, the farm, and The Varden. Eragon’s genre is fantasy, and the Character Development is that Eragon and Saphira learned that they have to fight other humans to gain their freedom.

The end of the book is when Bella finds out about James. The moral lesson I learned is that true love can be dangerous. Be Care full.

The character development is Bella and the last is the genre and the genre is romantic fantasy.

This all led her to find out something she would have never suspected. Edward is a vampire. In the end Edward saved Bella from James, the bad vampire, by taking the poison out of her arm. Stephanie Meyer’s purpose for this action-packed, romantic story was to entertain everyone.
