This shows she is a girl because of the 'Miss'.]]> 2021-03-12 18:35:49 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303825053 ilyam1 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303827299 I know that the narrator is she a girl because, she said she felt like Miss Average.]]> 2021-03-12 18:36:20 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303827299 niaj https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303831376 2021-03-12 18:37:17 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303831376 charlotted8 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303851709 The story is shown through Stella's Sister's (Dinnie's) eyes. Her POV (point of view) affects the story because if it was told by Guthrie, we wouldn't know about how Dinnie couldn't figure out who she was or how she wants to be different but also wants to be normal. For example, in paragraph 14, the text states "Sometimes I wanted to be the same, because then you'd have friends... but deep down inside my bubble, I wanted to be different." This shows that she wants to be different sometimes but wanted to be average. If Guthrie narrated, we wouldn't know about how Dinnie felt. Another example is in paragraph 20, the text says, "I'd wonder how she came to know what kind of person she was." This means she didn't know who she was and wondered how other people found out. So, to sum it up, Dinnie's POV affects the story because life is seen through her eyes, not anyone else's. Everyone's views are different, noone is the same; therefore, the story will be different depending on who tells it.]]> 2021-03-12 18:42:04 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303851709 leod10 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303858781 The narrator is Stella's sister, I know this because in the story she talks about her sister Stella and I know that she is her sister because in paragraph 21 is says "I felt like Miss Average".]]> 2021-03-12 18:43:48 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303858781 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303861744 Daniel Jaxel]]> 2021-03-12 18:44:34 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303861744 zivam https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303862384 If the story was told by someone else then the story wouldn't be about her trying to find who she is. Paragraph 20 states,"And every time she'd say something like this, I'd wonder how she came to know what kind of person she is." This proves that she doesn't know how to figure out what kind of person she is. Paragraph 19 states,"I'd always felt as if I was in some sort of suspension, waiting to see how things worked, waiting I to see who I was and what kind of life I might lead." This proves that she has absolutely no idea who she is. ]]> 2021-03-12 18:44:45 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303862384 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303864788 In Bloomability, the narrator is Stella sister because in paragraph 2 it says " I'd think of things my sister Stella had said.]]> 2021-03-12 18:45:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303864788 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1303865348 The narrator in "Bloomability" is Stella's sister. I know this because it mentions her sister Stella and in paragraph 21 it states that she is "Miss.

It affects the story because it tells how a certain character feels and you get to know their perspective of everything.

A piece of evidence from the story is "What I liked about them is that Guthrie was complete Guthrie through and through, and Lila was Lila through and through."

You can also see that in paragraph 14, the text says, "Ricky Fitzgerald is a dork." This means that she simply thinks he's a dork.

I don't want anyone to know anything about me so I look away." This means that it is her fault and actions why she was "inviisible." If Lily was talking to people they would knoe more about her.

This shows that Lily is invisible and that if somebody else told the story that part wouldn't be here because Lily is invisible. Another piece of evidence to support it is "You can tell everything about a person by looking in their eye's I don't want anybody to know anything about me, so I look away. I've been  invisible for 2 years now." If someone else was telling the story nobody would know or tell the reader this part.

Another way to prove that the point of view would change would be if the the story was told by Judy Thomas.

She thinks she is not important and that another person is more important than her because it says, "Lila and Guthrie" sometimes which means she just wants to talk about someone else.

Although they may have some similarities. Dinnie is friends with Lila and Guthrie, but in Cicada Summer  feels "invisible", meaning she feels alone. Dinnie didn't bring her issues on herself, but Lily's "invisibility" issue was brought on herself. For example, in Bloomability, the text states, ".. But inside, deep inside my bubble, I also wanted to be different." This means she didn't want to be average, while on the other hand, Lily purposely became "invisible." For example, in Cicada Summer, the text says, "I don't want anyone to know anything about me, so I look away." This means she doesn't want to let people know anything about her, making it hard to be friends with her. So, in conclusion, the two are different because Dinnie didn't want to be average, but Lily wanted to be invisible.]]> 2021-03-17 17:31:17 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1321913853 liamh51 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1321942653 Stellas sister does'tt know who she is it even says in the text that " I want to be the same but i wanna be diffrent too" but in cicada summer the girl wants to be alone it says that " I do this trick with my eyes because i do look in someone eyes they will know me and i dont want that"]]> 2021-03-17 17:36:42 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1321942653 valentinae3 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1326825304 The problem the narrator faced is that she is invisible.

According to the text, "You can tell everything about a person by looking in their eyes. I don't want anybody to know anything about me, so I look away." This means that she doesn't even try to socialize. Maybe if Lily would have tried to make friends she would had have some. Another problem is that in her mind she seems invisible. The text states, "He doesn't notice because I'm invisible." This means that she seems invisible and no one seems to notice her. Lily seems invisible and tries to make it stay that way.]]> 2021-03-18 17:42:29 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1326826430 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1326829258 Lily and I know because in the text it says "He doesn't say move lily or anything.

She is an introvert and she doesn't look people in the eye. she doesn't want to share anything about herself and she doesn't feel like she matters. I know this because in the text, it says, "He doesn't even notice me standing there." and also it says," He doesn't notice me because I'm invisible." and clearly she is not new to this invisible thing because it says, "I've been invisible for 2 years now."]]> 2021-03-18 17:45:58 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1326846997 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1326853462 The narrator faces the problem of being ignored.

One way to prove this is in the text "Excerpt from Bloomabilty" from paragraph 19 it states, "I'd always felt as if I was in some sort of suspension, waiting to see how things worked, waiting to see who I was and what life I might lead, and then moving to a new town before I could figure out any of those things." In "Excerpt from Cicada Summer" in paragraph 18 it states, "He doesn't say, "Move Lily," or anything. He doesn't even notice me standing there." Both of these pieces of evidence prove that the narrators are similar in the fact that they both like outsiders.]]> 2021-03-19 16:25:57 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330516011 danielh81 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330713118 The problems in "Excerpt from Bloomability" and "Excerpt from Cicada Summer" are similar because they are both emocional. Some piece of evidence from  "Excerpt from Bloomability " to support this is " Sometimes I wanted to be the same , because then you'd have friends , and you wouldn't be just the new kid, but inside, deep inside my bubble, I also wanted to be different." This shows that the narrator wants to be  the same but also she wanted to different. Another detail from "Excerpt from Cicada Summer" is "  Mrs. Kirk says, " Bobby, would you get rid of it, please?"...... " He doesn't say, "Move Lily," or anything. He doesn't notice me because I'm invisible." This means that Lila feels invisible but for other people she is seen as plain as day.

In Bloomability, the text states, "I always felt as if I was in some sort of suspension, waiting to see how things worked, waiting to see who I was..."

In Cicada Summer paragraph 20-21 it shows that she is invisible and that she does an eye trick to get people to not notice her. In Bloomability paragraph 21 it says, "I felt like Miss Average" and that shows that she is basic and needs to talk to more people and then she will find her personality.  ]]> 2021-03-19 17:27:23 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330799929 danielj43 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330809230 In both stories, the narrators' problems are hard to overcome.  For example in Cicada Summer Lily feels like she is invisible.  For example it says, "I have been invisible for 2 years now.  Then in "Bloomabilty Stella's sister can not find her personality.  For example it says, " I felt like 'Miss Average.']]> 2021-03-19 17:29:26 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330809230 zivam https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330819290 2021-03-19 17:31:42 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330819290 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330820184 In both of the two text Lily and Stella's sister problems are similar because they both are invisible to people or no one notices them.  Some evidence in the text is: "I've been invisible for two years now." and "People often said I had nice eyes, but no one knew what color they were."]]> 2021-03-19 17:31:55 UTC https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330820184 https://padlet.com/dclancy3/pmy9yw0dpt2g0071/wish/1330823952 The problems in "Excerpt from Bloomabilty" and "Excerpt from Cicada Summer" are similar because they both have emotional problems and not physical.

I wanted to be interesting, but I didn't know how you got to be interesting. They also both feel like a "nobody" and they both think low of themselves.
