  1. Over the summer Mary Lou grows by writing new things. For example in her journal she wrote a script.Here was one of her lines"Tommy stop that."She also wrote the book in a 1st person perspective because she was in the book but she was also the narrator.There was just one more she didn't write in chapters she wrote the book as a journal with dates.

She also was writeing in first and third person ominictent.heres third person"Sam Finney (whose age i am not allowed to say)is the father.he is a pretty regular father.Sometimes he likes us and sometimes we drive him crazy."Heres first person"I hope I am doing this right"(talking about her summer journal)See how she uses the word I ?

  4. Mary Lou writes in all kinds of figurative language. Ii think that this assignment that her teacher gave her is getting her to become a stronger writer. Because she writes almost everyday. I am not sure but I think this is personification. When she said "Carl Ray did not make up his stupid bed again." The bed can't be stupid.
