The Whipping Boy was written by Sid Fleischman Male
The main character is Jemmy he is a rat catcher and he catches rats from the sewers.
Another main character Is prince Horace also known as Prince brat because he did so many pranks that he was a brat.
It was back in medeval times when this happened and I dont't where it was.
The story was about doing the right thing and sadness.
Jemmy and Prince brat were running away and they got kidnapped by two theives then they ran away from them then they got cought again and then they escaped and went to the sewars and then they got away because the two theives almost got eaten alive by rats and then they stowawayed onto a criminal and they were put onto a an Island.
I thought the book was bad.
I liked how it wasn't very long.
I didn't like how Prince brat was such a traitor.
The story was not predictable.
The ending was OK but boring.

I really like it how the book gave a little detail but not to much to make you board.
The story did get confusing at some parts in the book, like when they would start talking about their plans.

The ending was pretty good.

One of the main charectars is Violet she is an inventer.
Klaus is another main charechtar He reads a lot.
Sunny is the next main charectar she has very sharpe teeth and she likes to bite things with them.

The time was a wile ago and the place was a lot of places.

The story were about courage, working hard, Careing, and sadness.

Sunny was put in count Olafs car and Violet and Klaus had to go in a trailer  that was attached to it.  Then the bad people cut the rope that was holding it and  they started roling down the hill. Then count Olaf thought that they had fallen off the cliff and died. But Violet made an invention and saved them. Then they acted like they were other people so that Count Olaf wouldn't know that it was actually them.

It thought that the books were really sad.
I liked the books.
I didn't like how so many people died in them.
The story wasn't confusing or hard to believe.
The story wasn't predictable.
The end was sad.

Jefferson Davis Bussey

Jeff is a boy about the age of 16, small, but handsom, and strong.

Jeff does the right thing when he joins the union army to fight for the freedom of the slaves.

Lucy Washbourne

Lucy is a very pretty confederate girl about the age of Jeff.

Noah Babbitt

Noah is a man about the age of 30, he is very considerate guy.

The time was during the civil war.
Jeff recruits as a Kansas volunteer.

The author might be trying to say that there we good people on both side.  He also finds out about all the wastes of war.  And to never lose hope.

This story is about, courage, love, jealousy, betrail, and greed. 

One problem in this story is, the war is going on, and to make the war end faster, Jeff joins.

1. In the beginning Jeff joins the army, and on the way he meets with some of his friends that want to go with him.

2. Jeff joins the army and he is put in the Kansas volunteer infantry along with his friends.  At first when he joins the training is really hard.

3.In the first battle that he was going to fight in he was called back to go and find the quarter master.  But Jeff did not want to leave from his first battle. But he had to go anyway. And he meets a really pretty girl called Lucy washbourne.

4. Later in the story Jeff is order to go into the enemy camp as a spy and find out the generals plans.  He goes with one of his friends that lies to the other army that they wanted to join.

5. Jeff's friend dies in the middle a battle by his own people so Jeff is left all alone.  Later Jeff finds out some very important new that some one in the union were selling really good guns to the south.

6. Jeff rides out to go and tell the new to general blunt.   In the end of the story Jeff is promoted to a Sargent and he leaves for home. 

I thought the book was really good.  Not to much detail and very exciting.
I really liked it how it was exciting, it was a war book but it didn't really have that mush language in it.
In some parts it did get a little confusing.
The book was not very predictable.
The ending wasn't very good, it was like it ended in the middle.
