Nim's Island Quiz

Wendy Orr wrote to us!!

The author of the book Nim's Island commented on our blog posting of letters from Jack to Nim. How awesome is that? I wonder how she found our post. Maybe we could email her with some questions?

Here is what Wendy wrote:

What wonderful letters and great drawings! Nim would be very happy to get those.
Happy reading

Nim's Island

We are reading the novel Nim's Island by Wendy Orr in class. We are also watching the movie starring Abigail Breslin and Jodie Foster. We have been making slideshows about sea lions and iguanas. We are spotting differences between the book and the film. We have learnt about acting from Abigail. We drew Nim's Island by following a dictation of instructions from Ms K. We also imagined that we were Nim's Dad, who is shipwrecked, and wrote a letter from him to her.
