Can you give us a summary of chapter 5 Kensuke's Kingdom?

Answer 1

Chapter 5 I, Kensuke

The old man is walking toward me, he is saying something. I don't know the language, maybe Chinese or Japanese. Stella seamed to think he was a friend or something, considering she hadn't barked at him. The man drew something in the sand, it's the island. Oh ok, splitting the island in half. I was to stay on my half of the island and not to set fires. Trying to lull myself to sleep with thoughts of the Peggy sue returning, but that wasn't enough to keep the mosquitoes away. As I was trying to sleep, I felt a sharp pain as something brushes against my hip, my fire glass! I can rebuild my fire, and this time somewhere the old man won't find it. Trying to remember what the old man said his name was, I fell asleep. When I woke up, I knew that the old man had been here. Food and water was there. He would keep me alive and he would keep Stella alive, but if only I lived by his rules. He drew the boundary line in the sand, I was not to cross over it but Stella always did. I tried to find fruit for myself so I didn't have to live by the old man's rules, and I could light fires, but I occasionally found fruit, but it wasn't enough. The mosquitoes still bite me, which makes me itch until I am raw, the only cure is to soak in the ocean. I tried to find another cave which the bugs wouldn't find me, but as soon as I found out that bats infested the cave I was out of there. The other day, Stella and I were coming back from watch hill, and we spotted something in the sand. We raced up to it, it was a sleeping mat, and a sheet! He knew I was being tormented by the bloodsucking bugs, did this mean that he had forgiven me for lighting the fire? I yelled a loud Thank-You! I went to sleep on my new mat, it was wonderful, I almost missed the ship that was passing by the island. I yelled to the ship that had passed 'Get out of here, I dont need you's to come for me anymore' ! Then I thought I really miss my parents and the peggy sue ... what am I to do ?

Thank you for getting me to tell you what Chapter 5 was about ... I'm truly honoured :) joking x Enjoy the rest of the book It's absoulootly amazing !

Answer 2

A young boy, Michael, travels with his parents around the world on the yacht Peggy Sue. Michael's parents teach him what he would have normally learnt at school themselves. When he is on lookout one night, steering the boat, Michael and his dog, Stella Artois, are washed overboard. They awake to discover that they are stranded on a desert island in the Pacific Ocean.

While Michael is struggling to survive on the island, food is regularly left for him. To his surprise, he learns that an old man called Kensuke is also living on the island. Kensuke helps Michael to survive. He sets guidelines that Michael thinks are just annoyances. When he is nearly killed by a giant jelly fish, Kensuke tends to Michael, and Michael eventually befriends him.

Michael teaches Kensuke English, and Kensuke in return teaches Michael how to paint, how to fish and where to find the best food and water. He is eventually revealed to be a doctor and Survivor of ww 2, and he believes that his family died in nagasaki after the atomic bomb was dropped there on August 9, 1945. Over time Kensuke begins to understand how Michael feels and how he misses his family. They both build a beacon that would be lit to signal to ships, but for a long time they see no sign of any ships. Later, however Michael witnesses a Chinese junk and he consults Kensuke as to whether or not he should light the beacon, but Kensuke recognizes the ship as that of poachers and he and Michael rush to gather all the orangutans into the cave to protect them from the threat that lies in the ship. They nearly succeed but miss out one orangutan, that Kensuke calls Kikanbo, which they could not find. The ship arrives and they both hear gunshots. When the ship leaves they discover that some gibbon monkeys had been killed, but that Kikanbo was still alive. The next time they see a ship it is not the poachers and they both light the fire. The crew on the ship see the fire and change direction, heading towards the island. When the boat is closer, Michael sees that the boat is the Peggy Sue, with his parents on-board. Kensuke decides at that point, despite thinking otherwise earlier, that he would not be sailing home with Michael and tells him to keep everything a secret until 10 years had passed and Kensuke was dead. Michael runs out to the beach where the ship had landed and is reunited with his parents.

Answer 3

After the coke bottle incident, Kensuke doesn't talk to Michael, for he has been thinking. When Tomodachi, an orangutan mother, loses her baby, Kikanbo, Kensuke comes to think of Michael's mother. She too has lost her baby. Perhaps she even came looking for him but could never find him. Then, one night, when the moon was high in the sky, all the turtle babies came up from a hole in the sand and went down to the ocean. They were not all down at the sea until at least noon. Kensuke and Michael help them when they were turned up on their shells and carried the really weak ones who would not of otherwise made the journey.
