1. Where does the main character's name come from? Do you think it is a good name for her?
2. Have you ever moved to a new home and started at a new school? Did you have trouble fitting in or was it easy?
3. Was there really a hidden diamond? Did you like the ending of the book or how might you have ended it?

1)The main charcter's name is Hero. She was named after a charcter in one of Shakespeare's plays. This was because her parents, especially her dad who has a job involving that sort of stuff, likes Shakespeare a lot. I think it is a very good name for her because she has the same type of spirit as Hero in the play.
2)I moved when I was very little, but I don't remember it at all and I was too young to go to school at the time. I did recently go to a new school though, Hadley Middle School. That was when I was in the fifth grade and I had a lot of trouble fitting in. The school was huge and I didn't see the friends I had from my previous school,Goodings Grove. Now, I am in sixth grade and I have plenty of friends.
3)there was really a hidden diamond. I liked the ending of the book, but it was one of those books that I wanted to go on and on. I wish the ending included the party.
P.S.
I really enjoyed reading this book. I think it was really neat when Mrs.Roth and Hero took AB, the letters that were inscribed on the back and found out about tons of history. This history also included the true Shakespeare. I adored the part when Hero and Danny find the diamond in the light fixture out side. I also thought it wasz suspicuous when Danny insisted on taking the diamond home with him for "safe keeping". I was very excited when Mrs.Roth, Hero, and Danny found out about Anna and how danny was Mrs.Roth's grandson. I also thought that it was nice when Anna returned the Murphy Diamond back to everyone with a note and a picture.
The main charecter is named Hero,which was named after one of the charectors names in one of William Shakespears plays. I can not relate to this story i have always lived in the same town for as long as i can remember.and Yes, there really was a diamond hidden for over 500 years. and i did really like the book i couldn't keep my head out of it. i concider it one of the best books i have read.
