Keep low!

   I am reading Magic Tree House Civil War on Sunday by Mary Pope Osborne. 

I think that in this chapter Clara Barton gets shot  by a musket and injured and that Jack and Annie help her back to camp.  I wonder if her wagon was damaged by a shell from a cannon? Do the horses drawing the wagon get spooked and run off? 

     When I was done reading I had some questions.

Was the gun used was an accurate rifle or an older type smooth musket?

I think it was a modern rifle since no one noticed any soldiers nearby so the shot came from far away. 

Was the wagon Clara was driving strong or weak?

I think it was strong since it had to go through battlefields. 

     When I first saw the word "wounded" I had trouble pronouncing it.

   I'm reading Magic tree house Civil War on Sunday by Mary pope Osborn.I predict that Jack,Annie and Carla Barton go out to the battle field and help some wounded soldiers then bring them back to the field hospital for treatment.I think This because Carla Barton is also called the angel of the battlefield.

    After I was done I had some questions the first one I had was way is the drummer boy so important to the war?because the drum is used to give certain commands to soldiers such as when to eat, how to do something or stay together during a smoke fight.My scened question is what is heat stroke?A life threatening fever that sends you to the hospital.I had trouble with the word Musket.I figured out that it is a old~fashioned gun.

   I'm reading the MAGIC TREE HOUSE #21 CIVIL WAR ON SUNDAY by Mary pope Osborne.I predict that this chapter is going to be about Jack & Annie going into badle helping the Union soldiers fight off Confederate soldiers.I wonder if someone is killed in this chapter because thousands of people come in and died in this war.

    After I was done reading I had some questions. The first one I had was why did Jack talk softly to the wounded soldier? because he did not want to upset him. the second question I had was  

   is it hard being a war nurse?Very hard. You comfort,feed,shelter&medical assistance (lots of it). 

I had trouble with the word Confederate. it means the south side of the civli war.(aka the bad guys).
