Question:

S. E. Hinton uses several different tones within this section of reading.

Identify three different tones and cite each passage. You do not have to write out the entire passage, just write the page number and describe the main idea of the page.

Next, identity the tone of the section. (What is the overall attitude of the writing: humorous, sorrowful, scary, etc.?)

Finally, write out the words and phrases within the passage that you think help create that tone.

Analyze Hinton’s use of language to create tone within her novel. Is she effective at her craft? (In other words, did she do a good job creating tones? What makes you think so? How did her work affect YOUR MOOD?)
