Tomorrow when the war began

1. Why does Robyn think they are the only people ever to have gone into Hell?  He is questioning why anyone would bother to come down here, and no-one they know has come to this place.

2. Why do you think the valley is called Hell? Maybe because there's like rumours about a man named Hermit who murdered his family and it's a really dangerous place to be.

3. Why must the teenagers seem like visitors from hell to the wild things living in the clearing? How is this ironic? They made a lot of noise which is really common for the wild livings to hear.

 4. What picture of Kevin do we get in this chapter? 
 Kevin is caring and sensitive. Kevin also had a bad habit of breaking branches off trees instead of walking a few extra metres to pick up dead wood.

5. What does Ellie liken Fi to? Do you think this is a fair assessment of her character? Use examples from the text to support your thinking.  When Ellie said he was like an exotic butterfly I think it was fair of her to say because she's basically saying like where has he been and stuff and how new he is to things. Almost like he just comes out of nowhere and doesn't really know of such things.
6. At times Ellie switches her narration from retelling the story to commenting about her life in the present - why do you think the author has chosen to write in this style?
To help remind us like this is in the past aswell.
