    So far in my book "Tunnels" a fiction story written by Roderick Gordon & Brian Williams tells a story about a boy has a passion for digging which he shares with his father quicjkly takes a turn for the worse when the father goes missing. Will along with his best friend Chester are still looking for Wills father. Both Him and his mom are going through a really rough time dealing with the disappearance of Wills father. The disappearance of his dad has the mother in a panic and has taken its toll on her. They eventually had to admit her in the hospital due to the enormous stress.  She  is in the hospital due to the stress of losing the Wills father, and want's Will to bring him back no matter what the cost. Some of the miners say his father was last seen in the tunnels looking very suspicious. The miners say they might have found traces of his father like pieces hair and little clothing but none seem to match.

   Strategies that I use to see the message of the story is theme, theme is a piece of writing that has it own unique way of expressing it. Another strategy you could use is Point of view. Point of view is were the author tells a story in 3rd person, 2nd person or 1st person. One last strategy is also use is Making connections. When you read other books or articles, you might find that you could relate to them in anyway. So say if you would like to write a story could use one of stories to relater too.
