"I was worried about my mother
who started taking naps
and stopped eating
and threw up in the kitchen
and in the bathroom
and in the car."(creech 6).

"My mother says
i was running running running
inside her before i was born
She could feel my legs whirling
thump - thump, thump - thump " ( creech 4 ) This shows that Annie likes to run and she feels free and she just keeps on running and when she runs she take her mind off of stuff and her and her imajination friend max to talk to when she's running. Its saying in the story she has a passion for running.

" We balanced each other
on the teeter-totter
tossed sand at each other
dug in the dirt together.

We got older
played catch with pinecones
pushed each other on the swing
chased around the grass"(Creech 11).
This shows me how close Annie and Max's relationship is. This also shows what they did and how they have known each other for a long time and that's how they got closer.

¨My teacher, Mr.Welling, asked us to make a list of things we fear.//I did not want to do it, my mind would not go there//until Mr.Welling said that after we made our list of things we fear we would make a list of things we love¨(Creech 32).

I think this shows that Annie is afraid to tell people her fears, I think she does that so people dont judge her for what she fears.

"I was worried about my mother who started taking naps and stopped eating and threw up in the kitchen sink and in the bathroom and in the car and i was pretty sure she had a deadly disease"  (Creech 6).
This shows that Annie only thinks of bad things. She just jumped to conclusion. She just thought that her mother was dying and did not ask what is wrong.

"I was running running running//
inside her before I was even born.// She could feel my legs whirling//thump-thump, thump-thump//and she says that when I was born//I came out with my legs racing" (Creech 4).
This repeats running and thump so it makes you think that it is actually running. This adds to imagery of the story.

"I am afraid of dying and of my family dying of disappearing"(Creech 33). This shows imagery because when you read this you can see how she feels and what she looks like as she looks like as shes writing it down. Also it that she is afraid of losing her family because shes doesn't want to lose herself. She might think this because her friend lost someone and ended up kinda losing himself because he lost someone he loved. Annie doesn't want/is afraid that if she loses her family she will lose herself like Max.

"but suddenly i felt shivery, alone and apart,dizzy from seeing all those people, and multiplying them by all the people, in all the towns and cities,in the world" (Creech 27).
This shows that Annie is wondering why shes on this earth, she also questioned why she is in the location. And annie doesn't know her part yet.

"I was worried about my mother// who started taking naps // and stopped eating// and threw up in the kitchen sink// and in the bathroom// and in the car// and I was pretty sure//she had a deadly disease// and she would shrivel into nothing//and she would die// and i would be alone// with my father//who would cry//and i would run run run.

This shows a lot of figurative language and imagery

"Some people think we are crazy. But it doesnt feel crazy to us. Its what we do. "(Creech 4).

"Some fear//algebra and tests//essays and reports_I am not good at these things//but I do not fear them//and wonder if I am wrong//I wonder if I am supposed to fear them" (Creech 35).

This shows that even though Annie is not good at something, she can still try. She does not fear what she is not good at. She uses her weaknesses to her advantage to learn what not to do next time. She asks herself these questions, wondering if this is something she is good at or something she should or shouldn't revisit in the future. She can easily control herself at times when she finds something she is good at, and doesn't always trust herself with things that she is not good at.

"I am not good at these things
but I do not fear them
and I wonder if I am wrong.
I wonder if I am supposed to fear them" (Creech 35).

This is an example of how Annie doesn't always trust herself. She thinks differently from the other students so she wonders if she has done the assignment wrong. I think that by the end of this book she's going to learn how to trust herself more in school and in her life at home. She is definitely more mature than other kids her age and wonders if she shouldn't be like that.

"I was worried about my mother//who started taking naps//and stopped eating//and threw up in the kitchen//and in the bathroom//and in the car__and  I was pretty sure// she had a deadly diease...//adnshe would die// and I would be alone//with my father//who would cry// and I would run run run" (Creech 6).

In this passage the author used good word use. The character traits really make me feel like I am right next to Annie. I feel like I am with Annie because the author used good words to describe how Annie and her dad were feeling.
