he excerpt from Outcasts United. Beatrice walked outside with Jeremiah and explained her concerns to Coach Luma: she wanted to k

now that her son would be safe and with an adult. She wanted to know how to get in touch with Luma if something went wrong. And she wanted to make sure that Jeremiah wasn't walking alone through Clarkston. "She did the bulk of the talking," Luma recalled. "She said that Jeremiah was her baby and she wanted to know where he was going." Luma promised to pick Jeremiah up before practice and to drop him off afterward. He wouldn't have to walk alone. She gave Beatrice her cell phone number and promised to be reachable. What are the effects of using an omniscient narrator in this excerpt?

Remember that "omniscient" means all-knowing, in other words, someone that knows everything that happens at all times, something like a god. The narrator is the one that tells the story, so an omniscient narrator tells us the story with the knowledge of everything that happens in it. We can know the character's feelings, thoughts, and actions through it. This type of narrator limits itself to tell the story without forming part of it, the characters are not aware of it's existence.

In this excerpt it is useful as we can see the point of view of the mother, Beatrice, that is worried for her son; as well as the point of view of the coach and his commitment. We can understand in a better way why things happened the way they did.
