Read pages 3-14 (until pg. 14 "Contrite I went to bed, hopeing that I would never see another kitten.")
Write down two sentences from the book that are descriptive, complex, and scintillating.
Then...copy the STRUCTURE of the sentences and create a UNIQUE sentence to enhance your story of foolishness or isolation.

Text from Black Boy:
Behind me my brother- a year younger than I- was playing placidly upon the floor with a toy.
Your original text:
In front of me my sister- four years younger than I- was jumping intermittently upon my dog with her pogo stick.
