CHARACTER ANALYSIS
How much did you learn about Sammy?
What happened to him?
Did you notice that he wore a bow tie, ironed shirt (even
though his mother pressed it for him), and an apron with
his name stitched on it? Why might this be important?
Tell me everything you know about Sammy (looks, job,
personality, etc.) without using the same words as the
author.
