Henry and Abram are big and greedy. Samuel, Richard, and James have to be in lunch line first because if Henry and Abram eat first, they will eat almost all of the foods. Henry likes to hit one of the boys. Sometimes Samuel thinks the other boys are idiots because they believe all of thing what they told.

Henry and Abram are big, greedy boys, who also likes to pick on the smaller kids. Samuel has a small relationship with Richard and James, but also sort of picks on them.

The boys are nicer now. But at first the boys were mean, greedy,and Henry likes to hit one of the boys. Henry and Samuel thought that the boys are idiots, but they aren't.

They do not get along with each other and and the oldest seem like  he thinks  he is the smartest and the best of them all. He also has no respect for others on the ship.

There are a few boys on the ship. The two big boys are big and greedy. They are Henry and Abram. The rest are James and Henry. Samuel doesn't interact with the boys too well. He fights with them and beats them up all the time.

Richard, James, and Samuel see to be nice friends. Henry can sometimes be mean to the younger children, because he is bigger, older, and stronger. I believe that the boys have a good/normal friendship. (They are good friends but they can fight sometimes.)

He does not like any of the boys, but he especially doesn't like the older boys. They both eat all the food and leave almost none for him and the others.  He is always picking fights with Richard and James. He thinks they are both stupid. Now the boys won't trust him because he is always mean to them.

Samuel, and the other boys sometimes have challenges with each other, and they play around. Samuel usually does not believe them.

Abram and Henry are big and greedy. Samuel,Richard,and James try to eat before Abram and Henry so they don't eat all the food. The boys also don't get along to well.

The boys can and can't get along well. On the boat they all are being very greedy. Then when they land they get along a bit better than what they were before. Now they start to be friends though they still fight. Henry the biggest one, can be mean and greedy.

James and Richard were unkind and mean to Samuel Collier.They don't let him eat that much food.So Samuel is probably starving.Samuel doesn't trust James and Richard because they talk about bizzare things like they talked about that the Carrib Indians eat people.So I can say that they probably don't like each other.

The boys in the story have a weird relationship in the story. They are always hitting each other and calling each other names. In the story, Samuel reaches for the biggest moldy piece of cheese and Henry slaps his hand and takes the cheese for himself.

I don't think they interact good with each other, because Samuel hits them and calls them names.

They don't cooperate very well together, though Henry and Abram are friends. Henry usually picks on Samuel. Samuel picks on Richard and James sometimes. They beat each other up a lo.

They aren't compatable. Henry and Abram are buddies. They should be nicer though.
