Read the following questions regarding Chapters 4 and 5, and post your responses to the blog. Use complete sentences and your best grammar and punctuation.
1) When Torey and Ali are talking, Ali said Chris's family is weird enough to keep him off balance, and make him weird, but not insane. Torey responds "You're making it sound like it's more dangerous to have a slightly weird family than a totally weird family" (p. 49). Which do you think is more dangerous? Explain and support your opinion.
2) What do you think is wrong with Ali and her family? What will she finally be able to tell Torey when he goes to her house?

As we read Carol Plum-Ucci's novel The Body of Christopher Creed, we encounter some highly sensitive issues. Please post your responses to the following questions (by clicking on the comment link). Be honest, and write in complete sentences.
1. When talking about the kids at Steepleton, Torey refers to them as techies, jocks, science nerds, and boons. Think about a time when you labeled someone or someone labeled you. Without naming anyone, describe what happened and what you learned from the situation. Did you or the people you labeled feel like they were being unfairly treated because of their label?
2. Make a prediction: Why do you think Torey feels so strongly about finding Christopher Creed's body? If Torey wasn't friends with him while he was around, why would he care so much now? Think about how Torey reacts after reading Chris's "good bye" email/letter.
3. Make another prediction: Who is this Alex Healey guy and why does Torey think Alex can help him solve Chris's disappearance?
4. After reading Chris's "good bye" email/letter, what do YOU think happened to Chris?
