New Thoughts


This year we read a book called The Hunger Games it is about a dystopian government that has split its own country into 12 districts where children between the ages of 12-18 are picked to compete in a death match called The Hunger Games to see who will win. The second book in this series is called Catching Fire and based on The Hunger Games here are some predictions on the second book: I believe that there will be controversy between Peeta and Gale, and a smattering of rebellion against the government.
