Benny By Bernard Beckett

1. The differences are that Benny is tall and Alex is short and also they have different attitude and different people and have maybe a different culture  

2. Alex feels sad that he moving away and that he not gonna see him again during school days and not talk to him and he might have different friends . 

3. She terrified and scared that she might lose him in that incident and her reaction was when she saw Alex help but thought that he making him drowning under the kayak and that why grabbed her son with the other hand and Alex with other.

4. You should know the truth and think twice before doing something to someone because you might not know what's come next or what that person might do to them.

5. The theme is that he is trying to tell us something in the story and that they are giving us clues in the story to help us do these questions.
