I
myself had two separate encounters with witches
before I was eight years old. From the first
I escaped
unharmed, but on the second occasion I was
not so
lucky. Things happened to me that will
probably make
you scream when you read about them.
The main character in
this story is an orphaned boy who
lives with his grandmother. The
boy is telling the story.
You know this because the
author uses pronouns like
I
and me.

point of view.

If a story is
written in 3rd person point of view,
the author tells the story. |
Beezus felt that the biggest
problem with
four-year-old Ramona was that she was just
plain
exasperating. If Ramona drank lemonade through
a straw, she blew into the straw as hard as
she
could to see what would happen. If she played
with
finger paints in the front yard, she wiped
her
hands on the neighbors' cat.
The author
is telling the story about 2 characters named
Beezus and Ramona. As the
author tells the story, the
author uses pronouns such
as she
and her.
