9.17.10: Week 4

It is important to use our observations/knowledge of the world around us to understand and make meaning out of what we read? Thinking about your experience with the writing excursion, how much importance does your author place on how two characters in your book dress/look? How do you know this?
 My author would not spend that much time on explaining how whit and witsy dressed. He would focus on the main idea of the book and not the way they dress. I know this because on the first page of chapter 15, they are getting ready to be sent to this jail for the supernatural. The author did not sit their and explain what the clothing looked like that they had to change into. He would only say they had to change into a jumpsuit and that was it.

  1. Lizzy what kind of support from your text would help me understand what you are saying? If he isn't focused on how they look, than how does he get the main idea across? Actions or words?
