What if you spent every day of your life
hungry?
What if you were forced to fight to the death with innocent
people that you don’t know?
Katniss Everdeen is forced to do this in…
The Hunger Games
By Suzanne Collins
Katniss Everdeen is a 16 year old girl
that lives in district 12 of Panem
With her twelve year old sister prim,
Her mother,
And her best friend Gale
Every year the capitol of
Panem has the hunger games
In the Hunger Games, 24 tributes ages 12-18 are out
into an arena to fight to the death
Katniss younger sister Prim was
chosen to compete
Katniss volunteers to
take her sisters spot
Peeta Mellark is chosen as the
tribute boy
Katniss and Peeta take a train to the capitol to prepare
for the hunger games
As soon as katniss and Peeta get to the capitol they have to
get ready for the tribute parade
Their stylist pick costumes that represent their
districts
The next day the tributes begin
training
After a few days of training each tribute performs their best skill and get a score
from 1-12
Peeta gets a score of 7, and Katniss gets a
score of 11
The next day they enter the hunger
games arena
Once they enter the arena, Katniss
runs into the forest as fast as she can
Katniss decides to spend the night in a
tree so other tributes wouldn’t be
able to see her as easily
In the morning Katniss wakes up to
a fire
She jumps out of the tree and tries to run
away
A branch falls and Katniss gets a
burn on her leg
Katniss finds a stream and decides to stop and try to
clean out her burn and get some water
Out of no where a group of
tributes appear and chase Katniss
into the woods
Katniss climbs a tree to stay
away from them
But they decide to wait to kill her
until she comes down
Katniss looks down and
notices Peeta with the other
tributes
She couldn’t believe that he
was trying to kill her
Peeta
Katniss looks up and sees a 12
year old tribute rue
She notices rue pointing up
She was pointing to a tracker jacker
nest
The next morning Katniss climbs up
and cuts down the nest and it falls on the other tributes
When the nest falls one of the tributes
dies
Katniss decides to team up with rue
Katniss and rue decide to blow up the other tributes
food
When Katniss blows up the food she
hears rue scream and she was caught
in a net
When she gets rue out of the net a tribute throws a
spear, Katniss kills him but…
It was to late
And rue dies
But Katniss has to move on
Later the game makers make an
announcement, there can now be 2 winners if they are from they
same district
Katniss rushes to find Peeta
When katniss finds him he's
hurt
The game makers make another
announcement, they have something that
peeta needs
Katniss goes to get what peeta needs
but when she goes, another tribute, clove, tries to kill
her
Then out of no where thresh,
another tribute, saves Katniss

save them
Later that day there are dog like animals
released into the arena
Katniss and Peeta are chased back to the cornucopia where they find the last
tribute Cato
Katniss wants to shoot Cato but if she
shoots him, Peeta goes down with him
Peeta draws an X on Cato’s hand in
blood
And Katniss knows exactly what he wants her to do
She shoots his hand and when
he falls the animals kill him
Then there's an announcement, there can now
only be one winner of the hunger games
Katniss pulls out the poisonous berries
and tells Peeta to eat them on the count of
three
