Questions:

2.   Recognizing Author's Purpose  With a small group of classmates, compare the notes you recorded in your Reader's Notebook. As a group, decide on Allende’s main purpose for writing the excerpt. What secondary purposes might she have had?

3.  How would you describe Allende as a writer?
     
      Think About:
