This blog is for the Knight Readers. As a team, we must create a summary of each book on the WIRC list. Character descriptions can be included as replies to the original summary blog. These blog posts should help us as a team to remember what we have read throughout the year. Please remember that along with the blog posts, you must also create 10 questions on your book to use for our mock competition at the beginning of May. Questions do not need to be posted to the blog. Happy reading!

Nation by Terry Pratchett
Mau is a young island boy on the verge of passing his "test" to become a man in the eyes of his people. Suddenly, he has everything he knows wiped out by a giant wave. Stranded on his island, Mau discovers he is not alone when a girl from the other side of the world named Daphne appears - the only survivor of a shipwreck. The two struggle with communication issues as well as survival while Daphne awaits rescue. Suddenly, more and more people begin showing up and Mau is thrust into being a leader and keeping these people protected from the natural dangers of the island and a rowdy band of pirates looking to take over.
