1. She is very young (5 years old)
2. She seems to be very silly when she is with Isabel.
3. She is playful (I watched Ruth leave the privy and walk straight to the bench. She hopped up on it, pulled a potato from the sack next to her, and started peeling it with a small knife, her feet kicking in the air under the bench.)
4. She seems to take Isabel for granted, as she lets Isabel be slapped.
5. She speaks without thinking.

The book is written in Isabel's point of view, which is first person. We gain a very in depth view of Isabel's thought process. We lose Ruth's point of view, because all we know about her is that she is Isabel's silly younger sister.

Curzon is a young African American boy that lives in New York. He is around Isabel’s age and size and always wears a red hat. He claims to be fighting for freedom.

"Brisk and lively", "calling out to each other and yelling", "uniforms and carried long muskets", "Others, in homespun clothes, dragged fence posts to a barricade",  "stuck out of the crowd like peacocks wandering in the chicken pen" i would guess that the British wanted to invade the city because it was so huge. There was also a large population and workforce, which would mean it had a booming economy. It also has multiple huge harbors, which would make it easy for the British to invade because they could invade by sea without having to cross much other land. The Hudson river also made it a great place for trade because people could use it for transportation into the city.

# data[].attributes.body
Five words or phrases that are used to describe New York are , "Soldiers splashed through the glittering puddles, toting wood, emptying wagons, carrying buckets hitor and fro." and "maids with baskets over their heads" also "The working people were dressed muchly as we did out in the country",  Some words that describe them are Ordinary and Peacocks.

The British might have wanted to invade the city because of how diverse it is. Also because there is so many people, they can influence larger groups.

Five things about Ruth.
1. She says what she thinks or in short bursts.
2. Is very young (5 years old)
3. Isn't super bright or simple. (Could be because of how young she is.)
4. Deeply relies on her sister.
5. Has fits or tantrums often.

How Isabel feels about Ruth is that she has to protect her. She is Ruth's mother figure because of the vast age difference and that Ruth and Isabel no longer have a mother. She also makes sure Ruth knows what is right and wrong. In the text it states, "As I patted, her eyes grew wide at the sight of a thick slice of buttered bread perched near the edge of a table. We hadn't eaten all day, and there had been little food the day before, what with Miss Mary dying. I snatched her hand away as she reached for it. "Soon" I whispered,"pg.14-15. This shows their relationship because of how Isabel is making sure Ruth does the right thing.

The point of view was 1st person. This story is in Isabel's perspective. Isabel is a slave, but she might have to become an orphan, but she can't because she has a little sister Ruth that she has to take care of.

# data[].attributes.body
The point of view that is used in chains is first person. Isabel is the narrator. What we gain from this perspective is Isabel's feelings inside and what she feels about the situations she goes through. You do lose the inside thoughts of other characters like Ruth who might have a different feel about all the situations.

1. Ruth is five years old.
2. She is not very smart. (she is simple)
3. Ruth is prone to fits, and they can come on with a lot of noise or when she's in a state of nervous excitement.
4. She had a baby doll made of bits of flannel and calico.
5. She speaks in short bursts, often stating the obvious.
Isabel feels that she is Ruth's guide or protector, and lets Ruth lean on her. Ruth really cares for her, and lets Ruth lean of her for support whenever possible. A quote that represents this is "Ruth put her arm around my waist and leans against me." Page 23. I know this is a very literal representation but it shows how Ruth looks for comfort in her sister in a hard time for them.

Curzon is a kind boy and gentleman, he claims to fight for the rebellion, because  they fight for slave's freedom.

The point of view is first person, from Isabel's perspective. From this perspective, I get insight into her thoughts, feelings, and her unique descriptions of situations. We also better understand what her and her sister are going through when she taps into memories and stories of the past. I think we definitely have a harder time being able to tell what's going on. Slaves are only told snippets of information, and hear little themselves. Isabel and Ruth don't know what will happen to them and when, which can confuse the reader as much as it confuses them.

She is five, she thinks everything is funny,  she works hard, she obeys without back talk, She blurts things out
She loves her younger sister enough to take a slap for her,
ex: "Madam Lockton flew off the chest and pointed her finger at us. "Which one of you made that noise?" Her face flushed with rage, her eyes darting back and forth between us."
"I did, ma'am," I quickly lied.
