The title of my book is “Lost in the Antarctic,” by Tod Olson. A word to describe my book that I would choose is “adventurous, ” because the topic of my book is about 28 men with dozens of dogs on the journey of traveling through the Antarctic. To explain the plots briefly, the main character is a guy named Shackleton, and he wanted to achieve a challenging target of traveling through across the Antarctic. But when the crew of Shackleton was getting to the pole, their ship encountered a pressure ridge bore down on the starboard side of the ship, moreover the ice and the floe damaged the ship. After, Shackleton planned to go to the Paulet island but eventually got to the Elephant Island.
However they were doing, the first central idea that I’ve sought out is that “Shackleton is a positive and bright leader.” According to the pages, Shackleton sacrificed himself and handed his only biscuit for the day to Wild without hesitation, we can draw that Shackleton is a selfless leader.
This notebook page is about analyzing the author’s perspective and mind through the words. My other central idea is: “The survival condition of the Antarctic is desperately tough,” because through this page we can see that the author has a clear view of what was actually happening in the Antarctic-which is a horrible place to live. The crises were such as blizzards and uncertain packs that could destroy ships.
This page includes some of the narrative elements in the book. The most of the citations are about the challenges that Shackleton and his men were facing, and the author used very advanced narrative techniques to cast a vivid scene of the challenge to us.
This page of day 7 is about the main issues that Shackleton and his men had experienced, and divided into “cause” and “effect.” Some of the “causes” affected significantly to the plan that were made initially, which had also played an important role to the plot of the book. Furthermore, some of the effects could be both “cause” and “effect”, because they were connecting to and affecting others as well.
