V. Theme
The author tells us that without a group of people governing in a place, the people in that place would suffer. I learned that we should cooperate with others, do our part, and be responsible.
VI. Evaluation of the Book
The story was great because i can't imagine myself with my friends stuck in an island surrounded by things that we don't know, that we live to survive in that place. What I didn't like was the READING part because i'm not used to reading books since I was still young. I prefer watching than reading.
