This week I read chapters from The Spiderwick. The characters......
While reading I wondered why...... This week I read Chapter 2 of Roald Dahl's The Witches. In this chapter I learned all about Grandmama. Grandmama is Norwegian and loves smoking cigars. The book is narrated by the Grandson, so the reader gets a very specific picture of Grandmama. It is noted in this chapter that the Grandson feels closer to his grandmother than to his own mother. He states, "... and I have to admit that I felt closer to her than to my own mother." pg. 12. There was a terrible accident where the Grandson's parents were killed. Now, Grandmama is in charge of her grandson.
In The Witches by Roald Dahl the character that interests me the most is Grandmama. Grandmama interests me the most because she is funny and loving. I feel that Roald Dahl created a character that any child could relate to their own family member. Grandmama has silly tendencies. She smoke cigars and knows all about witches! While reading, I felt the love that she had for her grandson jump off of the page. I especially saw this when she said, " ' You will stay here with me." ... and I will look after you.' " pg . 14 |
