I found the first few sentences of OVER THE WALL
amazing. They are extremely deep and complex. They
make the reader think. I like the part about the moon,
how it makes the tide roll in and out. In my opinion,
this means the moon is in charge of everything. It
makes the tide roll in and out, a metaphor for good
and evil. Also, some people believe in horoscopes
and think that the stars and planets and moon have
power in our lives. Maybe this means that the moon
has power over the good and bad things that happen.
Another thing that I found was that Lissie crept
behind a red brick wall. Further in the book, you
also mentions other walls. The ongoing theme of walls
makes the book intriguing. And it keeps getting better!
