Whether Milo should have entered the tollbooth by A



Milo should not have entered the tollbooth for three reasons: at times the trip was dangerous, disagreeable, and upsetting.
            Milo should not have entered the tollbooth because it was dangerous. The Terrible Trivium, guised as a gentleman, tried to distract Milo from his quest with years of meaningless tasks. The demon hordes chased Milo while he was in the Mountains of Ignorance. The Gelatinous Giant almost ate him.
            Milo should not have entered the tollbooth because it was disagreeable. When Milo was in the doldrums, he didn't have fun because the atmosphere bored him. It was not fun when swimming back from Conclusions; it was hard work. When Milo was thrown into prison, he was scared.
            Milo should not have entered the tollbooth because it was upsetting. It was grievous when Milo left his friends. He left Tock, his companion. He had to forsake the Humbug, his sidekick.  Milo left his friend, Alec, behind.
            Milo should not have entered the tollbooth because at times the trip was dangerous, disagreeable, and upsetting.

Welcome to Mrs. Holleran's Challenge B!

Hello Challenge B students and families!

I have created this blog for us to share our papers, since we don't have time in class to share the whole thing. You work hard on them; they deserve to be shared.

Here is the policy we will use:

No names, please. Just use your first initial. We only have two students with the same, and they can add a letter, whether middle initial or second letter.

Comments are welcome. Post whatever is excellent, admirable, noteworthy about the essay, but constructive criticism goes in a private email, or in person.

Feel free to send links you find that shed light on anything we are studying.
