(The Diary of Kitty Barnes): Plagues and Federation Week 1
Prediction:
I predict that the book, "Plagues and Federation," is about a young girl, Kitty Barnes, that lives in Australia, 1900. On the cover, it says it is "The Diary of Kitty Barnes," meaning this 'book,' will most likely be a diary. Every day of the year, she'll write in her diary the events that occurred that day. Since in the first few pages, the people in the book were talking about the bubonic plague, the Black Death, it will most likely spread to her family. She will probably have to deal with the hardship of this unfortunate event. There is also a war going on, so I predict that it may lead to her brother dying, as he is fighting in it.
Vocabulary:
Some words I expect to be in this book, are:
