In the story white mountain three boys Will, henry and beanpole try to find freedom in the White mountains were tripods do not live but could not it was a long journey and it is still a long journey for them in there trip to the white mountains they will need each other and if they do not find it in time they will loose there freedom by the tripods

Freedom is an important part of every body life but freedom has been taken away from Will henry ween they were in there village because ween you are capped you will get out of school and leave the house showing that you are a an adult. When Will Beanpole reached the red tower they saw that freedom prevailed in the town and even ween your capped you will go to knight school to train as a knight but not be left by your self all alone. This is manly the whole reason Will wanted to stay he would be free to do what ever he want he was living in paradise but knew he would have to pay for his freedom he would have to be capped to live in the castle. Also the ritual for the caps is the slightly the same in wills country because in there it is turning from a boy to a knight and a girl to a woman while in wills family it is turning from a boy to a man and a girl to a woman.

In reaching the White mountain they are hoping to get safety and freedom from the tripods and live there peacefully and if they do something wrong it would be a huge journey gone to waste
1. How were the Tripods able to control the people?

2. Find evidence (quotations from the novel) to show that even though Will is comfortable living at the castle, he is frustrated that the Comte, Comtesse, and Eloise have been capped.

3. Find evidence (quotes) to show how Will feels about being capped.

How the Tripods were able to cap the humans without any frustration, is that they confused them saying that it was a ritual from child hood to adult Hood but is actually a ghastly thing. Kid's who have not been capped have started to question, but don't leave because they are afraid of the situation leaving home and going away. But only three boys felt that the tripods are terrible things, and that brings no imagination or thought in a person so the they decided to go to the white mountains and they sacrificed every thing they had like the food there health and others to not be capped.

For even more than their inferiors, they accepted and looked forward to being Capped.
I choose this because not only Eloise and comte Comtesse that liked being capped, and they want Will to be capped so he can live with them i think and I thought Will was scared being capped.

"'Why should the Tripods take people away and Cap them? What right have they?' This shows that Will refuses to get capped but Eloise is making Will stay with her,and Will would rather get capped and stay with Eloise than go on a tiring journey to the white mountains . And Will is starts to think, what rights do they have of capping innocent people that have done nothing.

On the trip to white mountain another person has Beanpole. Beanpole is a 17 year old inventor who has not been capped he is smart and made glasses for himself, some of his other invention were unsuccessful but he was smart and highly curious of how life will be without tripods.

Beanpole met with Henry and Will and told him about the trip to the white mountains, and how they were going to reach it. Beanpole was interested in what they were saying and he told him how he taught of using a balloon and going to a place were tripods do not live, and Henry told them that he wants to join. I am writing this blog post to tell you my perspective on how Beanpole will be a benefit and a regret to reaching the White Mountain.

How beanpole is going to be a benefit is because he has a curious mind, and sees out of the box on how it came and how can it be improved in anyway. Beanpole also has the advantage of speaking French, and if they encounter any french people they can let him do all the talking while Henry and Will would just be behind him and letting him do all the talking.

Also how he will be a regret is because the food will finish quicker than usual, and they might have to look for there own food also Beanpole might use his brain to deceive them so they can give him the map.
It is kind of like a brain buster, you never knew what will happen and how it will happen but i believe that Beanpole will be a help in there way to the white mountain.

Am i like Will

I surprisingly think i do not act like Will, the only major part that me and Will have is that both of us are boys and if i knew i will be getting capped next year i would runaway.

Why i think i am not like will is because i do not like fighting all the time with my relatives, and steeling a watch ween i know it is not rightfully mine. When ozymandious told will to meet him at the tomb i wont had come, because i do not no him and all i might know is that he is a vagrant and vagrants are mad and stupid . I think me and will are the opposite to each other, and dont have the same thinking of others.

I am older than will so that means i have already been capped, i would have left for the white mountains or acted like a vagrant.
