Havah
Who is Danny? A little boy, who had a great idea with sleeping pills and helped Doc Spencer get the pheasants who didn't wake up.
Where does Danny live? In a Caravan, with only his dad.
Where is his mom? She died.
What was your favorite part of the book? When they got all the pheasants down.
What were they doing when they got the pheasants? Poaching.
What do you think about poaching? It's kind of ridiculous and kind of fun. Because you soak raisins for a long time. And then you put powder and then they fall down and that is kindof crazy!
Lilly
Who is your favorite character? Danny, The Champion of the World!
I like when they fall down and they caught them. I like when Mr. Hazell said shoo shoo.
And I like Danny the Champion more than his mom and the grandma. I like his dad.
(she got started before I could ask any questions)
Who is Mr. Victor Hazell? A bad guy. He is not my favorite character. (Havah says, "RA-diculous!)
Have you ever seen a pheasant? Yes, on a motorcycle.
Do you girls think other kids should read this book? (H)Very very YES! (L) If they have it! (H) But I think we should let them borrow it if they don't have it. (ensue argument about whether or not we should allow other children to borrow our books.... we'll excuse you from that portion of the interview)
I love the reviews from Havah and Lilly. I still remember my entire family laughing when Doc Spencer gives Mr. Hazell a shot.
