Anticipation Guide
- Opinion of statement:Stealing is always wrong, and a thief should always be punished severely. Agree
- I feel that stealing is bad and people who steal should be punished. You should never steal because you could be punished severely but some thefts they do not have to punished as severely.
A father, Daughter, and Dog
- this is how they are alike. Both of the dads died in both stories. The dad worked hard all his life and so did the master.
- The differences are. The daughter can drive a car but the Boy was alive before cars were made. Sounder got shot and lived a very long time but the pointer did not live as long in the story
