A Picture Paints One Thousand Words

Hey Quaratined asks,

What is the significance of the drawings throughout the book and how do they help one to understand Christoper's way of thinking?

For example

The picture of his street, his though procces of The Monty Hall Problem, the different faces.

What goes through your mind as you see what's going on in Christopher's?

What's With the Dog?

"Why do you think the dog on the cover is upside down? How do you
think this is related to the story and what is its meaning?

Reaccuring Themes

Thank Faye for this times blog!

What are some motifs that you see in this book? How do you think it affects the character?

And I'm gonna piggy back her question and say:

Even though his father told Christopher to "stay out of other people's business," he still investigates the crime. Show some evidence that there may be deeper motivations as to why he is so persistent.


You can answer one or the other, or both!

The First One! YEA!

So Christopher is a guy who isn't really considered normal. What are some curious aspects of his life that you found interesting? How does it relate to your life?
