Stanley's no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather

We have learned through flashbacks about Elya Yelnats, Stanley's great, great grandfather. When asked by Mr. Pendanski who was to blame for Stanley being in Camp Green Lake, Stanley said his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather. Everyone laughed, but do you think Stanley believes in the curse? What makes you think that? Do you think people can be lucky or unlucky? Do you have any examples of people who were lucky or unlucky?

I think Stanley doesn't believe in his no good dirty rooton pig stealing great great grandfather, but he said that because he didn't do the thing that got him in jail so he has to blame someone, doesn't he? There's no such thing as being lucky or unlucky it depends on you.

I think Stanley believes in the curse because of hi no-good- dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great gandfather.I also think people can be lucky and unlucky.One example of being lucky is winninig the MILLION DOLLAR lottery ticket.Another example of unlucky is not winning a MILLION DOLLAR lottery ticket.

no there is no such thing as luck. It is controlled by desmond tiny ,because when you take off the mond and add his last name it is destiny :)

I think he does because he didn't laugh when everyone else, and some people can be really, REALLY lucky. My brother was lucky because one time he couldn't breath well, but then we took him to the E.R and everything was O.K.

i think that people cant be lucky or unlucky its just skill to be lucky but to be unlucky its just that your at the wrong place at the wrong time:}

frenchy said...

Stanley probably thinks he's unlucky because of the curse he got sent to camp.I think teachers are unlucky because they have to teach almost all the time except for summer.

peace said...

Yes I think Stanley believes in the curse because he always says my great great grandfather. All different people are lucky and unlucky.One example is if you get your name drawn out of a bucket.

I think Stanly believes because he is so unluky

Lollie Pop said...

The people who I think that are unlucky are all of the teachers that have to teach mostly every day. The other person I think is unlucky is Stanley because he is new at Camp Green Lake and just now making some friends.

red dead said...

I don't think stanley believes in the curse because he does not sound like he believes in it.

Yes,Stanley always winds up at the wrong place at the wrong time.,My coucin Spencer's dad lets him get what he wants all the time.

April Ace said...

yes it follows the book because it has the warden,mr.sir, the yellowspotted lizards stanley and the other people.the yellowspotted lizard wasn't yellow with spots. i think he made some changes because he wanted to surprise people with different things.
