WHICH POINT OF VIEW?
First person:
• Narrator is inside the story
• Uses the pronoun “I”

Third person:
• Narrator is outside the story
• Uses the pronoun “he,” “she,” and more
SINCE THE STORY IS TOLD FROM COMFORT’S
POINT OF VIEW,
1. We always know her thoughts and
   feelings.
2. We don’t know the other
   characters’ thoughts or feelings
   unless they tell us. We only know
   what Comfort knows.
EXAMPLE
I stood, waved to Declaration, and said, “Hey!” She looked
    up and gave a short wave with a gloved hand but said
    nothing. Up and up she came. Her footfalls slapped
    Listening Rock and her breath puffed her cheeks in and
    out. As she got closer, I could see the ribbons on her hat,
    the buttons on her sundress, and her painted toenails in
    her sandals as she gained the top of Listening Rock and
    stood in front of me. She had a beach towel folded under
    her arm. Her face was a sweaty pomegranate red. I smiled
    my biggest smile at her.
She didn’t smile back.
Uncle Edisto always said, “The heart hears more than the
    ear.” My heart listened as it thumped in my chest.
My smile wavered. “Declaration?”
TO DO TODAY

  in the chart about:

  what Comfort knows.

                                                         know

painted toenails in her
sandals as she gained
the top of Listening Rock
and stood in front of me.



I smiled my biggest smile    Comfort is trying to be     Why isn’t she smiling
at her. She didn’t smile     excited about seeing        back? What is
back.                        Declaration, but            Declaration feeling?
                             Declaration isn’t smiling
                             back.
