Max's father said he sent Max gifts and letters while he was in prison, but Grim and Gram never gave them to Max. Do you believe Max's father really sent letters and gifts?

Yes, Max's father had wrote letters and sent gifts to Max while he was in prison.

Explanation:

Max's father was in prison for last seven years. He had been serving his punishment due to a crime of murder. Max was really attached to his father and could not live without him so Max's father started to write letters to Max and often sent him gifts but Max did not received any gift because Grim and Gram never gave him the letters and gifts.

for me, balancing all your work/homework is the hardest part in high school and the exams.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
