In class assignment for Tues., Sept.15, 2009. Answer the following journal question. What would it be like to live on Cannibal Beach? What problems would it create to have a quicker cycle of day and night? How do you think this kept Ulysses from discovering what the trees were? Post to the wiki/journal/response to literature.


I think it would be terrible to live in the cannibal beach because the day and night goes faster and there is some monsters which eats human, so I don't want to get eaten. And the problem that the day and hight going fast had made Ulysses and his man to don't know that the tree was actually a monster.During the night it os hard to see so it was hard of Ulysses to discover about the monster, even Ulysses found out that it was a living thing after he climb the tree.I think having the right time of day and night is the best. This is the reason why I don't want to live there.
