The Captain And Holling Hoodhood: An Ill-Fated
Heroes can be shaped by the environments they exist in. A hero must adapt to their surroundings and be resilient. This essay will be about The Captain (from “Shipwreck from the Bottom of the World” by Jennifer Armstrong) and Holling HoodHood (from “The Wednesday Wars” by Gary Schmidt). Please read along and enjoy this awesome essay.
In this paragraph I will be talking about how Holling Hoodhood is an Ill-Fated. Once in the story Holling Hoodhood had to clean Mrs.Baker's room.

It would be funny for the crowd but inside it's more frightening that a rattlesnake(well maybe no but still). This fades into the next example, after the show he had to run in the cold all the way to the sports store. Holling Hoodhood went there to see the one and only Mickey Mantle and the Mickey looked at him and laughed at him because he was wearing tights and threw his ball that Holling Hood gave to him to sign and Holling stared at at him with a blank face and left. So the last one for this topic is about the story of the shipwrecked to the bottom of the earth. If the Captain didn’t keep his mind to getting to Antarctica, you can call him dead meat. In other words if got distracted by something he would of died. For this you have to be concentrated and if anything at one second goes wrong you're a gonner. The captain must of blocked out everything everyone says cause he was always strict. For an example, when the men were joking around on land (more so snow) he would be strict. and let's say it a very tense
