Week 4 reading response

After analyzing your main character in a closer manner,you should now be able to compare and contrast that character in your book and with the main character in the class read. In the H-chart or in 3 paragraph compare and contrast these two characters. Determine which one you identify the most with and why?


In my book The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle by Ruth E. Murry. The things that are different from Doyle and Jonas Is that Doyle is a girl that never talks about her parents because they took her away from them when she was very young. She dose not have a home she lives in a ship with the owner on the ship and they always make her work. Also,she looks more like a person that dose not like to talk to people that she dose not know and she dose not like to ask questions about things she has to do until they tell her to. Another things,is that she dose not have to leave her home at the age


In the book The Giver by Lois Lowry. The things that are different about Jonas and Doyle is that Jonas is a guy that dose not have his real parents but has people that treat him like his own son. He has a very different life from my main character they are different because he has to leave his home at the age 12 and Doyle doesn't.Also,Jonas has a little sister,and Doyle has to work for money and Jonas works for no money.


The things that I think they have in common is that they both have to leave their homes to go work.Also, they are both very young and have not meet there real parents.Another thing,is that Jonas and Doyle both have beliefs and don't judge life the way they have they have beliefs is that Doyle beliefs she will once meet her parents and Jonas beliefs that there community will change.

I really don't have a connection with both of them because I have both of my parents and I got to be with my parents also what I don't have in comment is that I don't have to leave my house at a early age to go work.
