Discussion Questions:
1. Percy says, "Mr. Brunner expected me to be as good as everybody else, despite the fact that I had dyslexia and I had never made above a C- in my life. No- he didn't expect me to be as good. He expected me to be better." What does this say about Mr. Brunner as a teacher?
Literary Devices:
Foreshadowing- When an author hints or gives clues to suggest that something will happen later in the story.
2. What foreshadowing did you pick up on in this story? (An example could be Percy's love for water.) What did is lead up to in the story?
Foil-a type pf character who is a contrast or the opposite of another character.
3. Do you think Percy's character is a foil for Luke? Why or why not?
4. SPOILER ALERT: DO not read this last question if you have not finished the story :-)
In the end of the book, do you sympathize with Luke and his feelings of betrayal from his father? Do you think what he did was right or wrong? Why?
