Peris: Peris reminds me of a book cover because that is all you see throughout the first couple chapters. When Tally goes to Prettytown to visit Peris, he was not the same. He never showed his opinion, he only showed what was expected from him. His own thoughts resemble "the pages", and in this case that is one thing he is not showing. He is covering up his emotions (pages), and putting a "cover" on, to make everything flow smoothly with no interruptions. You know when you go to the library and all you're worried about is how cool the title looks and not the background of the story? This is just like Peris.
Shay: Shay reminds me of a three year old because she is always testing the limits but never gets in trouble. Do you have any younger siblings who get off easy when they get in trouble when there should be a big punishment? That's how Shay is except she does more then steal a toy from someone. Shay could have a big punishment that could effect her whole life. But, Shay doesn't just remind me of a three year old, she kind of reminds me of Einstein in some way. She is very clever and knows every trick in the book.
Tally: Tally reminds me of a dog on a leash. She goes where she is pulled to
go. Tally goes to this river with Shay because Shay is "dragging" her to go with her. Also, Tally goes to Prettytown to visit Peris because her heart is "dragging" her. She feels it is the right thing to visit her best friend even if she is not necessarily wanted.
I love all of the connects you made for the main characters, they were so well thought out. I thought it was cool what you compared to the characters like a book but you did stop there you went more in depth by describing just how she was like a book and I thought that was really cool! See you in choir Syd! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat job on this blog post! I really like how you compared the characters to things everyone has heard of, but then you described how the character connects to that thing.
