As he wakes up he looks at who is laying next to him, his son. It is now day and he can now be seen from the road. The starts to pull out his food and lays down a tarp for them to use as table. As his son wakes up he says "I'm here" as if something could have happened to him. He makes sure his son eats and they are off. That is a summary of the first page of the book. As you start to think about this the book is has started to make me think of my own father and see how he would react if this were too happen to us.
When I'm reading this book I start to see how caring the father is to his son and I soon to hope that I can be as thoughtful as him when I become a parent. It just really shows how good of dad he is and that he in this entire book is trying to keep his son alive and hope to see him live on with his life away from all the chaos that has been going on with their world lately.
If I were to be a character in this book as a teenager I would sure not want to become cannibalism, and start to eat other people. I would to see myself wanting to survive doing everything I could to get away to a new area where I could maybe be safe. I would hope that people would not fear that I were trying to kill them. And I would sure hope that I would not be alone because I don't know what I would do alone if that was going on.
