Please help me!!<br><br>How does Via convinced Auggie to return to school? (Wonder)​
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

She explains to him that he has an upper hand in the situation (knowing that Jack was saying bad things about him). She then tells him that if he refuses to go back to school on his own, she'll tell their parents who will tell the school principle and that everyone will start treating him like a freak that needs to go to a special needs school. That is ultimately what makes up his mind to go back.

How does Jason Reynolds establish an authentic, natural voice on the first page of the novel?
Flauer [41]

An author can establish an authentic, natural voice by using realistic details and by creating an authentic experience for the reader.

One of the elements readers value the most is to find an authentic or natural voice. This implies when the reader starts reading a novel or another text he/she finds the words and details seem to be realistic and they flow naturally.

This element is challenging for new writers but it is often achieved through:

  • Realistic details: If the story is based on the author's real experience, ideas, etc. then the voice is authentic and it will be believed by readers even in a fictional story.
  • Authentic experience: Readers expect to find an entertained but complex story. This is achieved is the author uses words, characters, settings, etc. to provide readers an experience rather than only a description of events.

Note: This question is incomplete because the first page of the novel is not given and the title of the novel is not mentioned; due to this, I answered it based on general knowledge.
