  2. I think Prakash threw away the Monopoly game after the incident with Lenny because he didn't want to think about it ever again. I would probably do the same because after he saw what his mother did to him, he was probably very upset. His family probably felt bad for accusing Lenny too.

  3. Prakash had probably thrown away MONOPLOLY because according to the book it said he had enough dealings with houses. I think that means that after seeing what happens in some houses he does not want to interact with them.

  4. Prakash threw the monopoly game away because.... he didn't want anything else to happen with the game. Like getting real money mixed up with fake monopoly money. Or any of his other friends to do anything with it. He might of also wanted to get rid of the bad memories.

  6. I think Prakash threw the monopoly game away because he just found out that the game took forever. I also think he did not want to touch something that Lenny touched.In that case I think Prakash is a #$%&^$@$%

  7. I think Prakash threw Monopoly away because he didn't like having bad memories. It made him think of Lenny and his Red Letter Day. He thought he had to go to Lenny's house but he really didn't have to.

  8. I also agree with Alex. Prakash also threw it away because the dealings with the houses didn't appeal to him anymore. After all that I wouldn't want anything to do with that game either.

  9. Prakash threw away the Monopoly game because Lenny had put the money in the Monopoly set. He never had to go to Lenny's house. He didn't want to go to Lenny's house because he regretted inviting Lenny to his house.

  12. I think that he threw away the Monopoly because that object will remind him of the horrible memories he had seen that day. That object would haunt him every time he saw them.

  13. n Maybe he threw it away because he can't stand that Lenny hid the money in the box. Also Prakash said the next day after the incident happened said that he didn't really care about dealing houses.He was still nice to Lenny though when he talked about Monopoly.

  14. I think Prakash threw away the Monopoly game because he didn't want to think about Lenny. At that point, Prakash was probably just glad Lenny had left, and didn't want to worry about that. I would feel the same way.

    Lenny dosen't seem embarrassed because no one likes him. Thats why no one would take his head for bumps. They thought he was really strange.

  19. Lenny is not embarrassed when no one will take his feet for bumps because he is used to it. He figured that no one will do it, so he was not upset. Also, he couldn't be embarrassed because NO ONE would do it!

  20. Lenny doesn't feel embarrassed when no one takes his feet and does the bump with Lenny because he doesn't seem like the embarrassed type. Lenny also doens't really care because he doesn't even really like school.

  23. Why doesn't Lenny seem angry or embarrassed when no one will take his feet for bumps? I think he isn't embarrassed because he is lonely and is used to it.

    I think Lenny doesn't care because he doesn't want bumps. I think people didn't take his feet for bumps because they thought he would smell bad or something. I think Lenny would be embarrassed if people DID take his feet for bumps.

    I think he does not care because he doesn't really like any one at school. I think he is just happy that someone would hang out with him. Lenny also is an outsider and he just does not care for this thing.
