Explain the association.

3. Theme ‐ What is the universal message or life lesson found in the novel that the author is trying to get across? The theme applies to all people at all times or can be applied to a person at a given time in history. 4. Analyze ‐ What the literary devices used by the author? Think of tone, mood, similes, metaphors, symbols, onomatopoeia, personification, imagery, or another element you found interesting in the way the novel was written. Locate an example and explain why the writer used this device and why it’s important?

5. Literary allusions ‐ Compare and contrast the novel to other works of literature. Consider movies, TV shows, songs, newspaper events, currents events, and other books. How are the two texts similar or different. Be sure to explain your text to text connection. 6. Evaluate it ‐ Do you like the novel or not? Why do you think or feel this way? What in the selection made you feel this way? Be sure to explain your thinking.
