Lord Of The Flies, chapter 1-3 summary

Lord Of The Flies is about a group of boys that survive a plane crash onto a deserted tropical island. Soon after the crash they called all of the boys to a meeting where they were to elect a leader. They ended up electing Ralph, the protagonist of the book. Piggy, one of the surviving boys who is often made fun of by the rest of the boys, comes up with the idea to go to the central mountain on the island and build a fire. A few days after they build the fire to attract boats and planes, they realize that they are running low on food and need shelter. Meanwhile, Jack is compelled to go hunting after failing to catch the first pig they saw on the island and will not give up the task. Ralph, jack, and simon try to rally the rest of the boys to help build but eventually decide to take a break as they are the only ones working.
