Questions:
1. Describe Caddie Woodlawn’s ? What kind of person was she? Give examples from the story that illustrate her personality?
Caddie was as wild a little tomboy as ever ran the woods of Western Wisconsin [Page1], very brave when she visit Indian John to warn them about the white man plan to attack his people [page 131-143] and very much the motherly instinct when she feels the pain of the Hankson children when their mother leaves them to go back to her people. She takes the silver dollar she gets from her Uncle Edmond’s silver dollar instead of spending it on herself. She spends it on the three boy’s pg 155-164 When the boy’s mother leaves them to go back her people, Caddie was sad to see this happen. She took the silver dollar spent it on the boys. She treated the boys as if they were her children.
2. In Chapter one , the Author writes that Caddie was the despair of her mother and of her elder sister Clara.” What does this mean? What is the reason for this? What were the roles of men, women, boys, and girls in early American society? How were children raised? How are the expectations of men, women, boys, and girls the same or different today?
Caddie wished that she could wear boys clothing pg 5
Caddie Mom thinks she is a tomboy pg 5
Caddie’s mom wanted her to be more lady like. Pg 14-16
The roles of the women were to take care of the household, by making quilts, making jam and cooking and to be prim and proper. The role of them men, were to hunt, make money and take care of the family. Pg 251 Caddie learns to be a housewife
Today women have the same options as men and even with the right to vote with the passage of the 19th Amendment which gave the Women the right to vote.
3. Why did the Woodlawn family move from Boston to Wisconsin? What hardships did they and other pioneers face on their westward migration? Describe frontier life. How does the family adapt to life on the prairie? Compare it to the life they left behind?
Mr. Woodlawn was entirely happy on the outskirts of civilization. Here he could breathe freely as he had ever done in the narrow streets of Boston pg 20.[a life of comfort] He fully understands how his father felt about being a Lord. Especially; when, he describes the Peacocks. Pg 89.---Many times; many times. There was a great stone house with towers and turrets and a moat with swans and there were peacocks on the lawn.
The life on the Frontier was harsh. Also the white man had such a miss trust in the Native Americans. Hoofs in the night when Melvin Kent pg 115 when he started a rumor from the tavern that the Native Americans are going to attack.
4. Compare Caddie and Cousin Annabelle. In what ways are they the same? How are they different? What life lessons do the girls learn from each other?
No they are not Caddie was raised to be strong and it’s clearly stated that she is Wild
The Circuit Rider Chapter 2
Pg 15 [Mrs. Woodlawn= “Yes. Mr. Tanner, it is my fault that Caddie is running wild instead of making samplers and dipping candles. I will tell you why.”
Notes: pg 15 Caddie’s father had to say. She loved to hear him say it in his deep, quiet voice. He would be telling how frail she and little Mary had been when they came to Wisconsin from Boston, and how, after little Mary had died, he had begged his wife to let him try an experiment with Caddie.
He said to Harriet he had said I want you to let Caddie Run wild with boys. Don’t keep her in the house learning to be a lady. I would rather see her learn to plow than male samplers, if she can get her healthy by doing so. I believe it is worth trying. Bring the others girls up as you like, but let me have Caddie.
Anna Belle Gray was raised proper debutant [Chapter 20] Snooty [Dear Me !] Said Cousin Anna Belle, “Are these children all yours Aunty Harriet!”?
There are only seven said Mother and everyone is precious pg 225
and she refers Caddy as Tom boy and the Indians as savages pg 227
5. What is the relationship between the white settlers and the Native Americans on the frontier? How do the two groups interact with each other? What stereotypes and prejudices exist? How are friendships and alliances formed? Support your answers with examples from the text?
Chapter 10 Hoofs A rumor was started in A bar by Melvin Kent Pg. 115 who was drinking that the Natives were going to attack; There was a divide and racial tension’s and the town all came to John Woodlawn for protection. However, he didn’t believe it.
A Bad rumor could have caused terrible devastation that is why Caddie took it upon herself to see Indian John to tell him what a town drunk was starting in Chapter 12 Ambassador to the Enemy
Caddie some white men are coming to kill you. Pg 134
John Takes Caddie Home and he confronts the people in peace and that there was no war planned.
6. Describe the frontier school system. When do the Woodlawn children go to school? In what ways is their school different from your school? What are the advantages and disadvantages of the frontier school?
Chapter Six School Room battle—The school was scheduled around farming season. These autumn days were busy ones indoors as well as out. School would soon be starting for the winters. Pg 59
7. How would life be different for the Woodlawn family if they had decided to move to England? List the pros and cons of making the move. Why did the family ultimately decide to stay in the U.S.? What would you have done if you were presented with a similar situation?
They would not have the same freedoms and they would have to give up being American Citizens.
Chapter 22 A Letter with a Foreign Stamp Pg 255 American Citizenship and all my American connections and return to England to live.
I would never give up being American.
8. In the book’s final chapter Caddie remarks upon the changes of the past year. How far I’ve come! She says. “I’m the same girl and yet not the same.” Explain what Caddie means. What experiences have contributed to her self development?
Chapter 24 Travelers Return Pg 275 What a lot has happened since last year when I dropped the nuts the entire dining-room floor. How far I’ve come! I’m the same girl and yet not the same. I wonder if it’s always like that? Folks keep growing from one person into another all their lives, and life is just a lot of everyday adventures. Well whatever life is, I like.”
It was always to be turned westward now, for Caddie Woodlawn was a pioneer and American.
Caddie’s has matured as a young woman. Much stronger Her Character is much like the biblical character Esther when Chapter 7 Esther petition’s the King to save her people from Haman 7:1-10
9. Caddie Woodlawn is a work of historical and fiction. What does this mean? How is the genre the same as different from other fiction? How does it compare to nonfiction? In her author’s note, Carol Ryrie Brink writes that Caddie Woodlawn is based on real events, but that she has added to it “a few imaginary incidences.” Select an incident that you believe to be imaginary and explain how it enhances the plot.
This book is based on truth and it’s 95% true. Rose Kirkwood who is a descent of Baby Joe and the genealogy work I have done on the real Caddie Woodlawn who is aka Caddie Woodhouse.
10. Carol Ryrie’s Brink was awarded the 1936 Newberry Medal for Caddie Woodlawn. Since 1922, the New Berry Medal has been presented to the Author of the year’s outstanding achievement in children’s literature. What do you think makes the book a winner? Why do you think the book remains popular today?
She is what is called a person who was a historian by taking notes of her Grandmother Caddie Woodhouse. She took her grandmother experience and she wrote stories base on what her grandmother told her.

Questions
1. Why is Caddie allowed to grow up "tomboy-ish"? Do think this was the right philosophy for her
father to take? Why or why not?
Chapter Two Circuit Rider
The way Caddie was raised was experiment of her father Pg 15 Father had to say. She loved to hear him say it in his deep quiet voice. He would be telling how frail she and little Mary had been when they came to Wisconsin from Boston, and how, after little Mary had died, he had begged his wife to let him try experiment with Caddie “Harriet,” he had said, “I want you to let Caddie run wild with the boys. Don’t keep her in the house learning to be a lady. I would rather see her learn to plow than make samplers.
Her father did what he had to do to keep from losing another daughter. Losing Mary was painful. To Loose Caddie he was not going let it happen.
2. Why do you think Mrs. Woodlawn said "You'll be the death of me if not yourself!" to Caddie? What
you think she meant?
Chapter Seven Attic Magic
Pg 74 Caddie why can’t you behave like a young lady? She sighed: “You’ll be the death of me if not
of Your self!”
Mrs. Woodlawn was telling her daughter she is to wild and the skating accident could have caused
her death.
3. What did Caddie do to save Indian John and his people? Would you have done the same thing or
Some thing different? Chapter 12 Ambassador to the Enemy.
Caddie takes a risk and she goes to the Tribe of Indian John to warn them without her parent’s knowledge. Pg 132-133 She takes Betsy to the clearing were Indian John lives to warn him and the tribe that white man is about to attack.
Pg 134; Some white men are coming to kill you. You and your people must go away.
4. What did you think about the Woodlawn family's decision about going to England? Would you have done the same or something different? Give specific reasons why or why not.
I would have to done the same; not all countries have the same freedoms as Americans do. We have what is called the Bill of Rights which guarantee’s to the American citizen among regular people without government interference. 5. At the end of the story, Caddie says that she is "the same girl and yet not the same." What do you think she meant by this? How had she changed? How had she stayed the same?
She has grown up and matured. I have to say when she became the ambassador to the Native people and to warn then of in depending danger that both sides would have lost between the white men and the Native Americans
