  1. Judy meant that she was stuck because she didn't know what to write and then she figured out what to write. I think that Jess's flaw is talking too much because Leslie is almost always telling him to be quiet.

  3. I think that when Judy is stuck means she doesn't know what to write about but then she figures out what to write about.I think Jess's flaw is him talking too much and being afraid because Jess is scared about swinging across the rope.Jess flaw is also talking too much about stuff and Leslie either tells Jess to be quiet or she ignores him.RYNE

  4. Judy means she doesn't know what to write.Judy was "stuck"and then went to the typewriter and wrote what she thought of.

    I think Jess's flaw is talking.My proof is because in this chapter Jess was talking and Leslie said shut your mouth.-Zayne

  6. What Judy os trying to tell them is that she didn't know what she should write or do. She was really stuck


    Jess's flaw that he recognizes is that he has no guts so hes always afraid of things. Like when he crossed the lake he was scared. He wants to tell Leslie but hes to scared to.- Aliya
