Answer:
Afrika's ransom in the book is amounted to $200.
Explanation:
"True North" is a novel written by Kathryn Lasky. The novel is about two girls, Lucy and Afrika, from two distinctive worlds, embarking on a journey together.
Afrika is a nineteen year old slave runaway girl. In Chapter 19, when Afrika was hiding with the Hunns, her former owner, Jenk Thomas had a bill published, claiming a reward of two-hundred dollars to the one who will hand Afrika over to him.
So, the ransom amounted to $200 on Afrika in the book.
The story about the Chanticleer and the fox is as old as the tale. The Chanticleer supervised the farmyard, waking everyone when the sun rises. Even thinking that he made it rose. The fox told him he admired his singing in the morning but with the intent of bringing him into the woods to be eaten so his morning singing won't bother other animals again. Fortunately, Chanticleer escaped from the fox's grip.
D. Hook. It is relevant to trying to 'hook' or reel in your reader for a great catch. ;)
An example:
<em>The creak grew louder. I whipped around and out of the corner of my eye, a shadow danced. I twisted back. I heard padding feet behind me. Desperate, I turned in circles as laughing began.....</em><em> </em>would that be captivating? Or what about:
<em>Yesterday was ok. We went to get ice cream. I got stawberry. But it fell on the ground. </em> Wouldn't you want to immediatly put THAT book down?
