Chapter 1 - 5

__How is Theo different from other kids his age?__ Theodore Boone's parents are both lawyers. He is very fond of the law, he knows the courthouse very well, and loves the courthouse for a 13-year old boy. Theo gives legal advice to people that need his help, the majority of the 13-year olds don't do that.

__What evidence from the story show how passionate Theo is about the law?__

Theo asks Judge Henry Gantry if his class can sit in the balcony on the day of the busy murdur trial because he wants to see if Pete Duffy killed his wife (guilty) or somebody else killed his wife.
__ What do you think April should do about her problem between her mother and father? __

I think April should run away or beg the judge she would love to live with one of her aunt, uncle, grandmother, or grandfather because both her parents are cruel to her.
__ What advice would you give her if you where Theo? __

I would probably say to live with one of her parents because they are her parents and they gave birth to April Finnmore.
__ Why did Theo compare his feelings about the court room the morning of the Big Case to athletes ready for a big game? Explain your thinking with examples? __

Because everybody is nervous about the Big Case in the courthouse. Athletes also are nervous before a big game because they want to win the game.
__ If you were the judge in April's case, what would tell her parents? __ I would tell her parents that April should live with her Aunt Peg in Denver and none of her parents should keep her.
