Summary

Who: In the seventh paragraph it talks about different kinds of Parrots that live there including Ibis and Flamingoes. There are many different kinds of marine life there as well. What: It's about the West Indies and the Lesser Antilles and Cuba and the Greater Antilles and the Bahamas When: the wet season is when they get 30-80in of rain.

My inital thought of the article was why do I need to read about the West Indies. But after I read the article I thought it was pretty intresting some of the island are low and flat and some are like mountains. Which is intresting it's not very good that they cut down all of the forest because animals lived in the trees. It is rich in marine life and that would probably mean it is good for hunting and fishing.




"I Wonder Questions

1. How far away from Mexico is the Carribean Sea?

2. How big is Cuba?

3. Do they have electricity on Nevis?
