READ CAREFULLY: Think about characterization: the way a writer develops and reveals a character's personality and temperament.
With direct characterization, a writer simply tells us what a character is like. EXAMPLE: Fernando is friendly.
With indirect characterization, the writer shows readers a character's traits by describing the character's actions and behavior, or presenting the character's words or thoughts. EXAMPLE: Fernando smiled warmly and asked the new girl, "Do you want to join my friends and me for lunch?"...oooohhh...he's got a crush and is acting very friendly towards her.
It's up to you, the readers, to make inferences or draw conclusions about a character based on the clues the writer provides.
Now think carefully about what you read in Down the Rabbit Hole and answer the 4 questions that follow.
