  1. Johnny Tremain By Andrew Reynolds And Clayton Bonitati

  2. Introduction

  3. Courage Johnny showed courage by when the Yankees needed the information of where the King’s own Fourth Regiment was going to strike next. When Samuel Adams asked for volunteers to go in a “Lobster Back” uniform and go under cover to get the information even if the consequence is Death.

  4. A Man can Stand Up!!!

  5. Power to Stand Up There was a few events where Johnny Tremain stood up for his “girlfriend” when she was being made fun of by the British soldiers. Disguised as a British private in Pumpkin's uniform Johnny makes his way to the river looking for a boat to take him to the Charleston shore to search for Dr. Warren and Rab. He sees boatloads of wounded enlisted men thrown ashore like cordwood while the officers are cared for.

  6. Power to Stand Up He nearly betrays himself by offering to help Lieutenant Stranger but catches himself in time. Once across the river he finds a tavern keeper who is also a Son of Liberty and for the first time finds out what happened that day. Johnny Tremain then was eager to help his friends that were being held in Charlestown captive.

  7. Helping his People On the eighteenth, Johnny finds out from Dove that Colonel Smith is preparing his campaign saddle to ride at eight o'clock, for about thirty miles, possibly facing drums and shooting. Johnny tells Doctor Warren that Colonel Smith will be leading the command that night and Lexington and Concord will be the likely targets. Doctor Warren tells Johnny to notify Billy Dawes to get ready to ride.

  8. Helping his People Billy Dawes, the gifted actor, is dressed like a drunken farmer. Paul Revere tells Johnny to tell Robert Newman, the sexton at Christ's Church, to hang two lanterns. Paul Revere would cross over in a boat and ride that night to warn the minute men of the marching troops. While Johnny Tremain is fast asleep, the first shots are fired in Lexington. Major Pitcairn is heard saying, "Disperse ye rebels, ye villains, disperse! Why don't ye lay down your arm?"

  9. Taxes When King George III passed many taxes to the colonists because of Britain's economic troubles the colonists were furious. The taxes were such an overwhelming problem the colonists, not just because of taxes, declared war on the British and the King George III

  10. The End
