Daniel at the

Seige Of Boston

1776

Presentaion by:Logan witte

Theme

By: Glaurie Calkhoven

Summary

The theme of

this story is bravery.

I know this because

on page 48 the book said

"I thought I would search

Stockdale's room's when

no one was about". This

is a sign of bravery because

if Daniel was scared he would be

afraid to go anywhere he was not

allowed to go.

In the beginning of

the story Daniel finds

out that his father is

leaving for war and

Daniel stays at home

to help his family.

During the middle of

the book Daniel started

spying for the patriots.

He found that the king's

army was going to attack

soon. He was soon

discouraged because

he was General George's

second spy that had

reported this information.

George Washington was

very disappointed in

Daniel.

Near the end of the story

Daniel found that his sister

had the "pox". He also found

that Stockdale was actually a spy

for the British by following him

home and checking his room

for evidence of this.

Supporting character

Main character summary

Daniel is a strong, brave, and clever

young boy. He is also dark haired and very

lucky. If you ask me he is almost a bit too brave,

he is always getting himself into fights with much

larger and more agile people. With a combination of these traits the book; Daniel and the Seige of Boston 1776, is a very "action packed" book.

Stockdale is a tall, greedy, traitor

that is very rude. He will often cause

the patriots to do whatever the British

want because he is secretly loyal to

the British army. Due to this the british

can expect almost every move the

patriots make.

Conflict

Resolution

Historical connection

I know this book is historically correct because it

includes lots of information about events that actually happened in history, such as the revolutionary war and valley forge. For example,

during the introductory paragraph the book said

"By the fifth anniversary of the Boston massacre the

the colonies were on the brink of The Revolutionary War". During the timeline of the book it said "Washington's army encamps at valley forge, Pennsylvania for one winter. 1/4 of the army died of starvation and sickness over 6 months.

I know that this story has a very tragic

problem/conflict, that being war. If you

thought that this was never resolved

then you are entirely wrong. Daniel didn't

actually end The Revolutionary War, but

he still spotted a traitor, which was very

patriotic. This traitor was Stockdale. After

this Daniel renews the appreciation that George Washington gives to him. He soon stops servicing the Patriot Army and decides to go back home to take care of his family.

The conflict of this story

is The Revolutionary War.

I know this because through

the whole book Daniel is

spying for the Patriots.

Another reason I know this

is because Daniels father left

for The Revolutionary War. I

also believe Daniels braveness

affected the story's conflict

because Daniel often thought he

needed to serve his country even

though he was just a young boy.

Due to this he often faced dangers

that no other young boy would face

in there life
