Answer:

Explanation:

Because Hinton chose not to write in first-person, we don't have Ponyboy's bias in the narrative. Through Hinton, we know what Ponyboy is thinking, but it's kind of like looking at his thoughts through a glass wall instead of becoming Ponyboy in the story. If that makes any sense. I did my best to explain.

Hope this helped :)

25 points!!!! Tuck Everlasting Review 4. Explain why no one ever goes into the woods

ira [324]

Answer + Explanation:

The woods in Tuck Everlasting are mesmerizing and almost magical. There is a somber, muffled quietness in the woods that almost feels claustrophobic. According to the book, it is a sleepy woods, which makes the characters subdued and nervous. This magical quality makes the people fearful of the woods and hesitant about entering. The magic in the trees is presumably because of the spring that runs through it.
