 media type="youtube" key="SMGRhAEn6K0" height="315" width="560" __ Katniss Everdeen __ I am Katniss, a small teenage girl. My face is plain and almost lookes like nothing, and my muscles make look like a baby could beat me up, but I am not a plain old nothing. I can shoot a "Bulls Eye" from 50f.t away with a bow when I have had no practice, run faster than everybody in my school, and take care of everybody in my family. This is why I survived the Hunger Games and won. Being a winner is good for me because I am from District Twelve. In District Twelve, peolple are not trained to survive in the Hunger Games, other districts train their entire life.

Aside from my weak outside and my beastIy inside, I care for my family and friend's health, and I have faith towards everyone I meet. I try to make everybody around me feel as happy as possible. I especially try to make sister Prim and my Mother gleeful on a full stomach which is very hard. The reason it is hard to try to keep my family on a full stomach is because in District 12, people are extremely poor. Most people eat bread and water for one meal a day.

I am handy with my bow and arrow. This helped me with the Hunger Games. I can outsmart the brightest of people which is what I did during the Hunger Games. I have the agility of a cat especially when I escaped from the tributes from Districts One, Two, Three, and Four. Finally, I am able to teach you how to win the Hunger Games.

__ How To Win The Hunger Games __ 1. Find water. 2. Get all the food supplies. 3. Hide in trees. 4. Be quiet so the enemy does not notice you. 5. Create allies with the young tributes. 6. Never have faith in an older tribute. 7. Camouflage yourself. 8. Don't show signs of death.

__** Setting of Panem **__

Panem is a country in future North America. Panem was started after a big disaster ocured and almost wiped all people in North America. The surviving people started a new country with a Capital and 12 Districts. The houses of District Twelve look like log cabins, but everything else looks like the future houses. The trains travel up to 600 miles per hour. The poor people who live here live off bread and water, and the people who are comfortable financially eat gourmet meals. The people in District Eleven and Twelve wear simple jeans and t-shirt with only one nice outfit. The people in the other Districts dress up nicely with a variety of clothing. Each District has a different purpose.

__ Conflict __

The characters in the story are fighting for their survival. Primrose, the younger sister of Katniss, means the world to Katniss. Primrose was chosen as the Girl Tribute to fight from District Twelve in the Hunger Games. However, Katniss volunteers to fight in the Hunger Games instead of Primrose. Primrose stays home while Katniss is forced to be interviewed and dress up as she is preparing for the Hunger Games. Katniss is put in a colossal arena and must try to survive. Once she finds someone, she must kill him or her. Most people die of starvation, weather, fighting, or whatever the Gamemakers choose to do. The Gamemakers make a new rule during the Games that people may team together. Katniss finds Peeta sick, so she nurses him to his health. They continue to fight in the Games together. Throughout their battles, they win the Games.
