LOFT Reading Response

  The section in chapter 8 that I read and analyzed was the part on page 91. This section in chapter 8 describes how Jack is starting to be unhappy with Ralph and his rules. Jack is starting to believe that he can be a better leader than Ralph and just wants to hunt. Jack is also realizing that Ralph doesn't do anything but tell rules to the other boys while he goes out and hunts and offers protection to the other boys. 

  I think Jack is over reacting because I think Ralph is doing a good job with the island by making a shelter and fire. Jack keeps thinking about hunting but Ralph is thinking about the ultimate goal which is going home. If I was Ralph I would let Jack go off to his own spot on the island, which he eventually does, because Jack only thinks about hunting and nothing else while Ralph has all the rules and the fire. This is what I think about this section in this part of The Lord of the Flies.
