Chapter 22 – Claim (R.A.C.E.R): Kevin’s condition is getting worse. Provide two pieces of evidence from this chapter to support this claim, and add sufficient commentary to explain your thinking.
The author provides us with evidence that Kevin's condition is getting worse and worse because he explains "Freak hardly touches his supper...Freak ask me to flame out the candles while he makes the wish, and then he doesn't even touch his piece" (Philbrick#144). This show that he must of felt really sick and did not eat because he too sick. Furthermore, the author states "...he can do to school over the telephone"(Philbrick#144). This is because he is really sick and does not have the strength to even get to school.

Chapter 23 – Prediction (R.A.C.E.R.): Do you think Max will try to do what Kevin asks him to do with the book? Use evidence to support your opinion, and add sufficient commentary to explain your thinking.
I believe that Max will try do what Kevin asks him do with the book based on the evidence that I found. The author states that Freak tells Max "It's all in you head, Max, everything you can remember. Just tell the story of Freak the Mighty, no big deal" (Philbrick#151). This just gives enough evidence to tell that this whole book was Freak the Mighty now he just has to remember the quest he and Kevin took.
