Reading Response (Part 1)Throughout both novels the protagonist and other characters often make serious or profound statements about people or life. For example, Junior: “I think the world is a series of broken dams and
floods, and my cartoons are tiny little lifeboats.” (p. 6)
Christopher: “. . . loving someone is helping them when they get into trouble, and looking after them, and telling them the truth. . .” p. 87
Take a few moments now to see if you can locate one or more of these. Write them down on the paper provided.

For the Exam
• For any question– explain your answer clearly– then, provide support by referring to the story– it is not enough to “memorize” what was discussed in your
group; you need to understand and be able to explain your own ideas and any ideas you got from group discussions
• For conflict– who/what is it between– cause/why– how it develops– is it/how it is resolved
