The daughter could not see far in front of her and continued to play with her fingers. Although the old woman lived in this deso

late spot with only her daughter and she had never seen Mr. Shiftlet before, she could tell, even from a distance, that he was a tramp and no one to be afraid of. His left coat sleeve was folded up to show there was only half an arm in it and his gaunt figure listed slightly to the side as if the breeze were pushing him. He had on a black town suit and a brown felt hat that was turned up in the front and down in the back and he carried a tin tool box by a handle. He came on, at an amble, up her road, his face turned toward the sun which appeared to be balancing itself on the peak of a small mountain.

True or False? W.D. Wetherell’s story “The Bass, the River, and Sheila Mant” and Gary Soto’s poem “Oranges” both use first-perso
stich3 [128]

True

First-person point of view is when the narrator is a character within the story. A primary indicator that a written work is in first-person point of view is the use of first-person pronouns: I, me, my, myself. Wetherell's story "The Bass, the River, and Sheila Mant" starts off "There was a summer in my life when the only creature that seemed lovelier to me than a largemouth bass was Sheila Mant. I was fourteen." Since this is narration and not dialogue, we know that the narrator is a character within the story. Gary Soto's "Oranges" begins "The first time I walked/With a girl, I was twelve". This narration uses the word "I" which shows that it is in first-person point of view.
