=//Catching Fire//= =Plot Summary:=

=
//Catching Fire// is the second book in //The Hunger Games// Trilogy by Suzanne Collins. As the sequel to the 2008 bestseller, //The Hunger Games//, this book continues the story of Katniss Everdeen and the fictional, futuristic nation of Panem. At the beginning of //Catching Fire// there are talks of a rebellion of the people against the Capitol, throughout the twelve districts. This rebellion Katniss and Peeta may have helped start. Much to her shock, Katniss had fueled a rebellion through her actions with Peeta and the end of //The Hunger Games//. What scares Katniss more is that she's not entirely convinced she should try to stop the rebellion. As time draws near for Katniss and Peeta to visit the districts on the Capitol's cruel Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. If they can not prove that they are lost in their love for each other, the consequences will be horrifying. //Catching fire// is Science Fiction.===== == =About the Author:= Since 1991, Suzanne Collins has been busy writing for children’s television. She has worked on the staffs of several Nickelodeon shows, including the Emmy-nominated hit //Clarissa Explains it All// and //The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo.// For preschoolers she made multiple stories for the Emmy-nominated //Little Bear// and //Oswald. S//he was the Head Writer for //Clifford’s Puppy Days.// .One day she was struck by how simple the setting seemed to kids."In New York City, you’re much more likely to fall down a manhole than a rabbit hole. What you might find...? Well, that’s the story of //Gregor the Overlander,// the first book in her five-part fantasy/​war series, //The Underland Chronicles." from([])//

Suzanne Collins lives in Connecticut with her family. Most recently she has just realeased her third book of //The Hunger Games// trilogy //Mocking Jay.// =//Other Works://= //TV shows:The mystery Files of Shelby Woo,// //Clarissa Explains it All, Little Bear, Oswald,// and //Clifford's Puppy Days.// //Books: The Hunger Games, Mocking Jay,// and the //UnderLand Chronicles.// =**Social Issue:**= The main social issue of //Catching Fire// is each person's individual rights verses governmental control over the entire society. This book gives an example of total governental power over the people. In this book people are selected to fight in an arena against others to the death, to show that the government has control over the people. These people have no choice to fight unless someone takes there spot as a volunteer. So basicly the people are forced to leave there families to do something they don't want to do and probably won't return! This is wrong because the government should not be able to just tell people that they have to leave their family to fight people they do not know to the death. =News Article= =Teens forced to fight to the death!!!!= In the future there is a government that has control of 12 destricts. A boy and a girl are selected from each district to play in the Hunger games which is fought in an arena to the death. The last person standing wins and gets to go home. Where they live in a seperate nieghborhood where they have all the money and food that they need to live for the rest of their life! By: Lucas Pottorf

=**About the reader**:= Im 15 years old. I go to Gahanna High School and I am a freshmen. I don't like school and sometimes I do not try. Im in the choir and the golf team. I am not much of a reader but I liked this book. By: Lucas Pottorf

I would pick Dakota Fanning to play Katniss Everdeen because she has shown to be able to be cold but strong. I think that Chloe Moretz should play Prim in Catching Fire becauses the part well she looks the right age and fits the part well.
