What character(s) in this book would you most and least like to be friends with, and why?
In Fish in a Tree the characters I would like to be friends with the most are Ally and Shay. I would like to be friends with Ally because I feel like I would be able to support and help her to make her feel more confident in herself because she has dyslexia. I would like to be friends with Shay because I think that I could help her believe in herself and stop her from being the "antagonist". The character that I would like to be friends with the least is Jessica. I understand how Jessica feels overwhelmed by Shay but I also think that she should be able to stand up for herself and say I don't want to be your friend.
P.S. Always remember:"Everyone is smart in different ways. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its life believing it is stupid." - Mr. Daniels
