Farley Drexel "Fudge" Hatcher

Peter's two-and-a-half year old brother is a bit of a terror. He causes all sorts of trouble, misbehaves, and doesn't listen to his parents, driving Peter crazy. He does look up to Peter as his big brother though, and constantly wants to follow his example.

Mrs. Hatcher

Mr. Hatcher

Jimmy Fargo

Peter's closest friend, he is also in his fourth grade class and lives in an apartment on his block. The two often hang out in Central Park together.

Sheila Tubman

Another fourth grader from Peter's class, she lives in his same apartment building. Peter thinks Sheila is a know-it-all and does not like her very much. When Peter, Sheila, and Jimmy are assigned to do a school project together, Sheila is bossy and tries to take control of the entire assignment.

What is true of homer's greece?
expeople1 [14]

Homer is best known as the author of the Iliad and the Odyssey. He was believed by the ancient Greeks to have been the first and greatest of the epic poets. Author of the first known literature of Europe, he is central to the Western canon.

When he lived, as well as whether he lived at all, is unknown. Herodotus estimates that Homer lived no more than 400 years before his own time, which would place him at around 850 BCE or later. Pseudo-Herodotus estimates that he was born 622 years before Xerxes I placed a pontoon bridge over the Hellespont in 480 BCE, which would place him at 1102 BCE, 168 years after the fall of Troy in 1270 BCE. These two end points are 252 years apart, representative of the differences in dates given by the other sources.


Hope this helped! :)
