Ask students to summarize what they know about the narrator. How does she see herself? What is the most important thing they learn about the narrator? Do they think her brother feels the same? How does the narrator feel about where she lives? How do they know? “Have the people in Toronto seen what I’ve seen?” (page 16) What is she really asking? Have students describe the narrator’s feelings about moving at the beginning of the story and at the end. What is the difference?
