Chapter 23 white dolphin summary

English

Sophie [7]3 years ago

Answer:

White Dolphin is the second awesome book by Gill Lewis. It is set in a fishing village in Cornwall and a lot of the action takes place on the beach, the cliffs or in the harbour. Many of the people in the community depend on the sea to earn a living.

Kara and her Dad are depressed, upset and confused. Kara's mother, who was a marine biologist and conservationist, disappeared while she was on a research trip, and Kara and her Dad are living with his sister Bev, but Bev is expecting another baby and the house is already overcrowded so Kara and her Dad will have to move out soon.

They have so many debts that they are going to have to sell their beloved boat Moana which is particularly special as Kara's parents restored it together.

They are at war with Dougie Evans and his son Jake who have a grudge against them. Dougie employs a lot of people in his fishing fleet and he wants to get the ban on dredging in the harbour lifted, so that he can make more money easily, but Kara is determined that it should be kept, so that the seabed and all its creatures will not be destroyed.

The white Dolphin plays an important part in the story and it is a precious link with Kara's mother.

This book has lots of things in it that remind me of Sky Hawk, such as the endangered animals, the sick or disabled friend, the rather strange old person that the villagers don't like very much, and the professional environmentalists.

In both books the mean characters change for the better.

There are lots of very strong characters in this book. As well as Kara who was so determined. I liked Miss Pendula who many people think is mad. She lives alone on the cliffs and cares for sick birds.

There is also Felix who achieved amazing things in spite of his disability and Daisy, Kara's cousin who stood up to the bullies who were making fun of Felix even though she is only five.

I admired the Head teacher who was kind and understanding to Kara even though she did something really bad at school.

In the end, Kara achieves something that no adult has been able to do.

Hope it helps

On Venus it rained a lot everyone was confident that it was gonna keep raining. One girl, Margot, was from earth and she knew what it was like to see sun. The other kids did not. She tried telling the kids that one day the ran would stop. They would push and shove her because they thought she was crazy and making things.

They pushed here into a closet and locked her in their. And then the rain stopped. They was in awe because they had never seen sun every body was really excited. Eventually it started to rain again. Everyone was huddled inside the tunnels.

The kids forgot about How they locked Margot in the closet. They went to unlock the closet and she was standing their. They thought she was crazy but now they knew she was right. The sun would come out. They felt awful.

I hope this is what your looking for i really do. make sure to thank me and accept my friend request.

... Why we would not be able to see the moon without the Sun
brilliants [131]
There would be no light for the moon to reflect.  We can only see the moon because the sun gives off light, and then that light hits the moon, and bounces back down to Earth (only some of the light).  Then, our eyes receive that light.  Without the sun, there would be no light coming from the sun, and bouncing off the moon.
