Setting


As we know, Tommo and his family live in the countryside. Using as much evidence from the text as you can, give a convincing description of the daily walk from home to school. Good luck!

Thomas and the rest of the Peaceful family live in a very small village in a rough area near the countryside. We can tell that the village is small as there is only a small church and a school which is attended by only 40pupils who are led by Mr Munnings. The colonel looks after and keeps an eye on his own MASSIVE estate which is where Thomas and Charlie sneak their food from so their family don't starve. This is a great risk for the boys but bravely they go poaching hoping to help the rest of the peacefuls, who are short of money and food!

Tommo , Charlie and the rest of his family live in an extremely small cottage in an extremely small village near the country. We know its a really small village and a really small church because there is only one church and school, which only has 40 pupils and two classes the bigguns lead by Mr.Munnings and the tiddlers lead by Miss McCAllister . Whilst unfortunately almost everybody else works for the big-headed, boss, under paying Colonel.The Colonel is always walking round his giant estate keeping an eye on things . But some how the boys always manage to sneak in and steal thing to eat so they dont starve . This is a Great risk but they don't care as long as them and their family were not going to starve.They never get cought.
But then again they are THE PEACEFUL BOYS !!

The peaceful family Thomas ,Charile ,big Joe and their mother all live in a very small cottage in a small village and beside the contryside . The reason that I can tell it is a small village is because in a page of the book it tells you about a small church and a small school which 40 pupils attend and the school is led by a man named mr munnings . The Peacefuls aer short of food , drink and money since the boys father died he was sadly squished by a tree !
