A Summer's Reading Reflection page – 49
1. I enjoyed reading the story, because I learned that lying can cover the truth

George lied him picking up his education, it made him feel bad about himself, about the lie he told Mr. Catanzara.At the end he raised about those feelings and he started to pick up his education.

2. Learning about the skills of Explaining Cause and Effect and Uncovering Motives influence my understanding of the story, it helped me understand the character's behavior and their intention in the story.

The Uncovering Motive helped me to understand why Mr. Catanzara helped George and not told that he lied, why he covered his lie by another lie to help him.

I uncover the intention of Mr. Catanzara to help George improve his life.

The Cause and Effect skill helped me to understand why George had to lie about him reading books.

He wanted people to respect him and treat him as a big boy, but he knew that he had to lie about something that will make him seem as he grew up and not the little boy, immature that drop out from school.

3. The characterization of character will add to my enjoyment of the story, because it helped me the characters in the story, their role in the story and how they affect each character in the story.

With the characterization I could predict the character's behavior and what they will do in the future.
