This week in class we kept n reading bring to Terabitha we read chapter nine. This is what happened in chapter nine: It has been raining for a week, and Jess and Leslie are going crazy. Finally Jess suggests that they should go to Terabithia and Leslie agrees. When they get there, they find that the water in the creek has gone up a lot. Jess, who has always been scared of the water, does not really want to go, but Leslie persuades him. It continues to rain, and with each day that the creek gets higher, Jess gets even more scared, until he ends up lying awake at night worrying about it. He doesn't feel that he can tell Leslie of his fears, but each day it gets harder and harder for him to swing across the creek.One day when they are in Terabithia, Leslie announces that this it was no ordinary rain falling on their kingdom, but it was evil spirits. She says that they should go to the grove of the spirits and pray. Jess does not act like a king and feels like he was not worthy to be the king of Terabithia. Then Leslie says that they should go and dry out while watching TV at Jess’s house. Jess agrees so they leave Terabitha and go. But that night, when he wakes up to hear the rain on the roof, he gets scared all over again, knowing that no matter how high the creek gets, Leslie will still want to swing across.This is what happened in chapter nine in the book bridge to Terabitha. I can't wait to read the rest of the book and find out what happens.
