TAMING THE STAR RUNNER entry 2.

     In my second reading ( pages 20-40 ) Travis tells of how is life is going at his uncle Ken's ranch. Its not his uncle thats bothering him , infact he forgets hes there a lot of the time , but he has no friends at his new school. Back at his old school hes was the most popular and everyone new his name , here even the teachers all hate him.
    The book started out being told in 3rd. person Limited. The author would go from narrorating the story to telling the story in 1st. person ( through Traviss' point of view.) But now in my second reading , the book is also written in letters from travis to Joe ( one of his best friends from home. ) Even no Joe doesn't write back , this still shows a better understand of Traviss point of view. Threw his letters you know exactly how he feels , as he is talking to a friend. I think this is a great way of showing the story because the author uses a narrorator point of view , Third person point of view ( limited) , and letters.
