Blog post #31

Find an example of imagery,personification, and a simile. Quote directly from the book and add page numbers.

Simile- "Like walking poison she killed everything in sight." pg.244

personification-"Tally looked away, trying to drown her in uncanny pretty feelings in the sea of white weeds."pg.245

imagery-"They walked through the smoke,past cook fires being extinguished with shovelfuls of dirt.Windows coming alight with candles and electric bulbs.And a handful of young uglies pursuing an escaped chicken."

Does it require bravery to meet David's parents? Why or why not?

Yes it does especially if your Tally with her weird fear of old uglies. To me it's kind of scary to meet anyone new. And it definitely is if their the parents of a guy your best friend likes.

  1. I agree, Syd! I think the situation gets even harder when you meet a guys parents whom you REALLY want to impress because you REALLY like their son. So much pressure...=)
