THe book that i am reading is almopst famous by Zoey dean and i am crrently on page 205. An example of cause and effedct would be that:Emily ( one of the main chacters) is about to become famous and because Mac another one of the main characters is pushing too hard emily has a nervous break down and decides that she shouldn't become famous. Maybe if Mac werent pushing too hard she could have lead Emily to a more simpler famous life than she had when mac was pushing her too hard

The I am currently reading Ruby Lu:Empress of Everything. Auther Lenore Look,page 101. The Cause in the Book is that Ruby's cousin is an illegal Immergate. So Ruby is trying to hind it,so that they stay in the country. but the again Ruby has told her freiend the family sercret.

The book I am currently reading is called I so Don't do Mysteries. The author of the book is Barrie Summy and I am on page 120. The cause of my book is Sherry's mom died in a drug bust. The effect is that Sherry has to help her mom find the rhino killer to save her mom's spirit. Maybe if Sherry's mom wasn't a cop she would have never died and Sherry wouldn't have to be on a wild goose hunt to find the rhino killer.

I am reading Closed for the Season by Mary Downing Hahn. I just finished the book. A cause and effect in my book would be because they found a clue to the mystery, it made them persue and gave them courage to help them solve the murder. By finding a clue (bag of plastic characters and a note) it made them go through with what they were doing and helped them solve the mystery of the murder in the house. If they didn't decide to look for the bag they wouldn't have found it, and they wouldn't have solved the mystery, making the book pointless.

cmazza3 said...

amonari2,
I agree that Mac shouldn't push her hard, then maybe she would be less stressed to follow her dream and become famous.

cmazza3 said...

kmedero2,
I think that the rhino killer is kind of weird, and that her mom wouldn't have become a cop, so that she wouldn't have died. I hope you enjoy your book!

amonari2
Is Mac Emily's friend or her family member?

lbrown4 said...

The book i currently reading is called All the lovely bad ones by Mary Downing Hahn. I'm currently on page 48. The Cause and Effect example of is that Corey and Travis overheard a ghost experience from one of the Inn employees. The effect is that they interrogate the Inn guest and the employees. If the Cause was to change te effect will change because Corey and Travis wouldn't have a reason to interrogate everyone if they never overheard the ghost experience.

ekeck04 said...

crawls3
Did you read the book and watch the movie?

lbrown4 said...

amonari2,
Amber when I read the title i thought of you instantly about how you said you wanted to be famous in seventh grade.

lbrown4 said...

Cmazza3,
My book is the same way, but they are spending time with their grandmother.

ebowers4 said...

The book i am currently reading is 8th Grade bites, and i am on page 27. An example of cause and effect in my book is when Vlad and Henry go to a party, Vlad gets angry almost shows every one that he is a Vampire. Vlad gets angry at the bullies of the school when they make fun of him. The effect might have changed if they hadnt gone to the party. Vlad and Henry left after the insident.

ebowers4 said...

Your book seems like its pretty interesting. I hope it turns out to be as good as it sounds.

mcannon3 said...

The book i am reading is called Maximum Ride by James Patterson. I am on page 204. One example of cause and effect in my book is when Max decided she wanted to get her friend to surgically remove a chip from her arm. Even though she couldn't move her left hand for a while, now the labs can't track her or the flock. If she hadn't, more people would be able to find her.

mcannon3 said...

kmedero2,

I want to read that book.

mcannon3 said...

lbrown4,

That sounds like a relly good book.

Jbaptiste2 said...

My book is Titans curse and the author is Rick Riordan. The majority of the time, Percy, The main character, Generally have find other half-bloods like himself to keep them safe at camp half blood. the cause is Percy finding the other half-bloods and the effect would have to be the half bloods not being eaten by monsters. If Percy never finds them, they perhaps will be roasted over an open flame.

Jbaptiste2 said...

ebowers4
Does the main character enjoy being a vampire?

Jbaptiste2 said...

kmedero2
Does your book have a lot to do with not liking mysteries like the title says?

Jbaptiste2 said...

Jbaptiste2
And on page 40

sdeemer2 said...

The book I am reading is The City Of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau and I am on page 70. The cause is that Lina and Doon are best friends and they are trying to find a way out of The City Of Ember. The effect is that there is know way out. There are guards around the Unknown Regions. So, know one is allowed to go see what’s out there. Many people have tried to see what’s out there but they all have come back in 1-2 hours because there light gave out.

kmedero2,
Sounds good! Hope you enjoy it!

ekeck04 said...

I am reading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling. I am currently on page 365. There are many cause and effect situations in the book but I only chose one to explain. The effect is that Harry Potter, the main character, is known by everyone. He is known by everyone because he lived through the most powerful curse cast by the most powerful dark wizard. He is the only known to have lived through the curse. Harry Potter was only a newborn baby when he was struck by the wizard's deadly curse, but he survived! Harry Potter wouldn't be famous if he died after being struck by the dark wizard's deadly, powerful curse.

crawls3 said...

dmcbroom2

tirwin3 said...

I am currently reading Poeple in the News "Angelina Jolie." It was written by Rachel Lynette. If their was something I could choose for a cause/effect it would be when Angelina married Jonny Lee Miller. If she wouldnt have married him than she wouldnt have gotten a divorse. If the cause could change and she would have got to know him better before she went on and married him, the effect might have been different. It could have ended up as they would have stayed together longer abecause they got to know each other or the would have never gotten married in the first place because she got to know how he accually is.

One cause and effect situation is because of train wreck they were in was just like the one decades ago the souls from the previouse reck enterd the bodies of the ones in the current wreck.

Yet everything is fine until she is reaging, and now she can't drive, and she can't take care of herself. The Cause would be she doesn't want to die and she becomes tempted. The Effect would be that she becomes unhappy with what occured afterwards.

Droller4 said...

G Costa sounds cool, and intersting.

Jdean4 said...

The book I am reading is called City of Strangers by Ian Mackenzie. I am on page 63. One cause in my book is that the Main character Pauls dad is old. The effect is that he's dying. If the cause were different then his dad might not be alive or maybe very healthy.

amonari2,
Mac should have not pushed her to hard!

Kfundenburg4 said...

The book I am currently reading is called Up Close: Rock Legend Elvis Presley. I am on page 126. One example of cause and effect in my book is that Elvis was addicted to prescription drugs and could not stop taking them. For this reason he died and no one really understood why, except his wife. She was the one person who knew everything about him and didn't judge him. He took the drugs mostly because he was getting teased and people would always critise him. If he never took the drugs, I honestly believe he would still be alive today.

jtomlinson4 said...

The book I am reading is the Tomorrow Code by Brian Falkner. I am on page 110. One cause and effect is that Tane Williams one of the main charactors of the books likes Rebecca Richards, Rebecca is tanes best friend. Tane likes Rebecca but she doesnt know it. He wants to ask her out but he doesnt know how. Tanes older brother "fatboy" ask her on a date first and she says yea. Tane is really mad and hate his brother because he says fatboy is all way screwing everything up.

hfundenburg4 said...

The book that I am reading is called Leaving Paradise. The author is Simone Elkeles and I am on page 135. The cause was that Caleb Becker was driving drunk one night from a party. The effect was that Caleb hit his next door neighbor, Maggie Armstrong and she ended up in the hospital. Now she has a limp and nasty scars from surgery on her legs. If the cause were to change and Caleb wasn't drunk, he wouldn't have hit Maggie in the first place.

An example of cause and effect in my book would be that the Nazis took over Germany under Hitler's influence. The effect of that would be that the Jewish community, including Anne's family, had to go into hiding or else they would be taken to concentration camps. If Hitler wasn't given the power to take over, the Jewish community living in Germany wouldn't of had to live in secret and fear.

There is a war that is coming and they don't know that. Bree Tanner meets a new friend by the name of Diego. He is an older vampire that is sweet and smart. Bree and Diego are new BFF'S and they find out some things that no one knows of. That is an example of cause and effect in the story, "The Short Second Life on Bree Tanner."

The book i just finished reading was called the melting of maggie bean. One example of cause and effect was when her parents kept fighting and the only thing maggie felt she could turn to was to eat chocolate. the effect on eating all the chocolate was that Magie was gradually gaining weight. If her parents weren't fighting then magie wouldn't turn to eating chocolate to feel better. And that would mean she wouldn't gain weight like she is now. The author is Tricia Rayburn.

llindsey3 said...

Sounds like a BORING book. :)

llindsey3 said...

Amonari2,
Intersesting....Very very interesting.

bclark3 said...

My book is AL Capone shines my shoes by genniffer choldenko,im on page 102. The cause is, the main character moose needs his sister to get in a special school but she dosent meet the requirements. so he writes a letter to al capone so he can get her in the school. The effect is, she gets in the school and al capone writes back saying done. If moose did write to someone else his sister probally would'nt of got in to the school.

bclark3 said...

amonari2, I guees based of the title the main character dosent become famous.

bclark3 said...

dmcbroom3,that sounds like a strange but intresting book.

eblasberg2 said...

The book im reading is Harry Potter and the Order Of Pheonix by J.K.Rowling.Page 413.An example in my book would be that: the defense against the dark arts teacher isn't teaching them how to perform spells. What if they have to battle a dark wizard? The effect is that Harry had to form a secret group and teach students all the advanced spells he knows. Maybe if the teacher was teaching them the right way, there wouldn't be a secret group.

eblasberg2 said...

kmedero2,
that book sounds interesting and sad.

eblasberg2 said...

dmcneil3,
I wonder if thats a good book, sounds like it.

djknowles3 said...

The book I am currently reading is The Halloween Tree. The author's name is Ray Bradbury, and I'm page 142. I'm only a few pages away from finishing the book. A cause and effect example is when Pipkin disappeared(The cause) and all of the boys went after him(The effect). Maybe if Pipkin never really disappeared, then the boys would never had tried to find him, and halloween would have gone on as normal.

djknowles3 said...

dmcneil3, Is it a good book?

djknowles3 said...

Gcosta3, Is that a horror book?

khunziker3 said...

I am reading the book the Cover Up and its about two kid reporters that are reporting for CBS and a newspaper. One of the cause and effects is that Stevie and Susan Carol write a story about failed drug tests and they are bombarded by it. All the other reporters surround them with questions and they are looking for answers. They then are left to stand by their story. With the help of friends they might get through it.

khunziker3 said...

aouellette3 said...

The nook i am currently reading is 'Don't judge a girl by her cover' by Ally Carter and i am on page 120. An example of cause and effect in my book is, Cammie Morgan visits her friend in Boston. Her and her friend Macey are now stuck in a kidnappers mind. If Cammie would have never visited her friend in Boston she wouldn't have to try and escape a kidnappers mind and may have had an exciting, interesting summer back home like she expected, in Boston. When she got back home she couldn't ignore what had happen this summer.

Your book sounds very interesting and creepy. The effect sounds like something anyone would do if they overheard a story about a ghost.

The title of my book is Camp X. The author is Eric Walters. I am on page 229 (Finished). My book is about two brothers who sneak into a secret army training camp in Canada during WWII (1943). Cause and Effect: Because George and Jack wonder into a Forrest to play War they get lost and wonder into a military camp. If they had decided to go the regular way home and not try to take a shortcut they would have never discovered the camp.

I am reading The Hunt for the Seventh by Christine Morton-Shaw. I am on page 117. An example of cause and effect is when Jim follows his sister into the bear pit (cause)and he finds a new clue to help him solve the Minerva Hall murders (effect). If he would not have followed his sister he may not of found the third clue. Yet there is a chance that he could have found the third clue but it would be delayed possibly delaying and/or changing the outcome.

As Greg enters the new school year, he's eager to put the past three months behind him . . . and one event in particular.
Unfortunately for Greg, his older brother, Rodrick, knows all about the incident Greg wants to keep under wraps. But secrets have a way of getting out. . . especially when a diary is involved.

twilliams03 said...

A cause and efect situation that hapened in my story was that if Max had not went to sleep she probably would have not been kidnapped by earasers and put into a giant tank. She also wouldn't had have to pretend she was dead to escape from the giant tank and I beleive that if she did stay awake she would be there with her flock protecting them and keeping them safe from dangers harm. Sadly she isn't.Therefore if the cause was diffrent in this situation Max would have woke up that morning ready for a fight mor flight and she probably would have kept the flock safe from the new and improved MaxII that is there to pretend to be the real Max and to lead the flock into a dangerous and mind blowing trap that cost them heir lives.
