LATLL Blog 1 (Summary and Plot Analysis)

In my book there was a lot of action that had went on recently. In the very beginning this girl Mary and her brother Leo had snuck out of the house. They had then went to what they called "the hobo camp" to visit a fortune teller. Leo and Mary then had went to the fortune teller and when Leo got his fortune told, the fortune teller said nothing at all, because she didn't see a future. The next day it had been Mary's birthday and Leo had gotten her a boat for her birthday. Leo then had promised the next day that they would go out and sail it, and so they did. Soon after they had done that Mary had been tired from rowing and rested upon the top of rocks where she fell asleep. She then had woke up and had not seen Leo to her surprise. Although, Leo had went to another island, and it had started storming now. Mary had shouted for her brother but he couldn't hear her. Leo had kept swimming and swimming even though there was the thunder storm behind them. Leo had then drowned and Mary had fallen off the rocks into the water to then fall into a concussion.

In the book when Leo had seen the fortune teller she said that she saw nothing in his future. Later in the book I had realized that it had foreshadowed a future event that happens in the book. A few days after Leo had seen the fortune teller he had got caught up in swimming when there was a storm that was brewing up. Although he wouldn't get out of the water even though his sister was yelling at him to get out. As the waves got higher and higher, Leo had seemed smaller and smaller. In the book the events had shown me that the fortune teller hadn't seen anything because he wasn't going to have a future.
