For this week's blog post, I am again going to write a "Asking Questions and Wondering" type of post. This week I'm reading "The Eleventh Plague" by Jeff Hirsch. I'm hoping it's a good book since Suzanne Collins, the author of The Hunger Games had good remarks about this book.
    Q: The title is pretty intriguing. I wonder what's the story behind the title.
A: The Eleventh Plague of P11 is the name given to the deadly influenza that wiped off 2/3rds of the population of America.
Q: How did Stephen Quinn's grandfather die? Stephen's father talked about the cause of his death  like it was human. Was his grandfather murdered?
A: Like the majority of the population that died, Stephen's grandfather died because of P11.
Q: Jenny claims that her last name is Tan and not Green....If she was adopted as a baby, how did she know her last name?
A: Just what I thought, Tan isn't Jenny's last name. In fact, she doesn't even know what it is. She just uses it because she doesn't want to be called with an American last name Green.
Q: Will accused Stephen of being a spy from Fort Leonard. Because of Will's actions I doubted the existence of  Fort Leonard. I wonder if it does actually exist
A: It does exist and is supposedly the enemy of Settler's Landing.
Q:How did Stephen's mom die? Did she die because of P11?
A: His mom died trying to give birth to his supposedly sisters. Both his mom and sister didn't survive.
