Reading Notes: Saint Kentigern and the Robin

Saint Kentigern and the Robin was a terrific story. I think a good story for my blog may be to talk from the bird’s perspective, or another boy in the house. The bird could be kind of like a pet from Harry Potter. (Scabbers, anyone?) I think it can think like a human and almost keeps a big brother kind of watch over the boys. Of course, when the boys try to kill him, he will be defenseless. The boys tears will be able to heal anyone, which will become a huge part of the second end of the story. Saint Kentigern will go on to help people for many years to come.


Another point of view could be from another boy. This boy is not jealous of Saint Kentigern, he actually looks up to him quite a bit.  He doesn’t want to hurt Saint Kentigern, so he keeps a watch full eye. This boy, Harrison, will become a close ally to Saint Kentigern. They will become best friends and help each other through trials and tribulations.
