Freak the mighty may cover many themes .But towards my concerns it covers adventure.It covered adventure because it show maxwell travels from many different places.Maxwell lives in the basement of Grim and Gram's house.Grim and Gram is his grandpa and grandma,he lives there because he doesn't no where his mom or dad is.

The relationship between grim,gram,and maxwell is good.Maxwell was taken in as if he was a foster child.But apparently not they just say they don't know where his parents are.So until then he goes to school with the annoying kid freak.The robot kid who acts very carzy.Speaks like a robot such as Rrrrrrr.I couldn't stand freak if i was maxwell .

Freak the Mighty is a very good book.For example this book talks about a name freak who acts crazy.Freak was in day care with Maxwell (The narrator).Maxwell a boy who has a nickname Kick who created games like kickball,kickball the teacher. Then after maxwell didn't see freak for a long period of time.But later on Maxwell met up with freak while he was arguing with the movers who was moving his computer.But then was put in the backyard beacuse of his acts.

The relationship between freak and Maxwell is bad.I assumed it's bad because freak wants maxwell to die as he said "die earthling,die !".But when the met up at freak's house they acted as if they were best friend with no arguing.Also because Kick helped freak get his mechanical bird from in the tree where it got stuck.

1.I'm not apart of the 54% of americans believing in the extraterrestrial life because that means you believe in the show Star Trek which isn't real.Said in the story "As they found two Saturn sized planets."

3.Yes,it would be good if there where radio signals because they'll be able to see if humans are on the moon and keep track of them because they can make a record but wouldn't be notice so radio signals are good.This would reveal if humans are on the moon.
Writers Response
1.Maybe the writer was trying to be sarcastic in the first paragraph because of the use of the word irony which means {A use of words to convey a meaning that is opposite of its literal menaing.}

2.The reader may have not known use of the use of the word so the writer explained it more.

3.To show that the Scientists was very important than other people may have thought they were so he put appositives.

4.he may put less information because this was probably a serious matter but didn't want to go into the matter because it may have been very serious.

5.To show the importance of extraterrestrial life and the difference so he put viewpoints.
