Connection:


In the book that I am reading the main character (Samantha Madison) is forced to take art classes because she was caught drawing celebrity drawings during German class and she got a C-. A friend of mine was forced to take Math classes because she kept on getting bad grades on her Quizzes and Tests. These stories are connected because both of these girls are forced to take out-of-school classes because they got bad grades. Samantha Madison got a bad grade in German and my friend got a bad grade in Math. But the only question is: Why was she forced to take art classes if she got a bad grade in German?

Narrator's perspective:


The narrator's perspective is 3rd person limited because the author wrote the book like she was the main character, I can understand this because in the book it says: "Okay here are the top ten reasons why I can't stand my sister Lucy", so you can see that refers to "I",another reason of how else I understood the narrator's perspective is that so far it doesn't talk about any other person's thoughts or feeling's but the main character's (Sam Madison).  Thought, there is a part that says: "get the big lecture about waste and the environment", If you read just this part you won't understand the perspective immediately. This is what I understood so far because this is a new book and I only read the first two chapters!



The new book that I am reading now is called 'ALL AMERICAN GIRL' by Meg Cabot!
