Rules

Dear Ms. Welker,

I am reading Rules it is by Gynthia Lord. Before I read, I have a prediction that there will be a child that has lots of rules. I also have a question. Why did the author name the book Rules?

While I was reading I answered my questions. He named the story Rules because it is about a boy who is autistic and the special rules he has to follow. I also have another question, why is David so bad. The answer is because he is autistic and he does not know any better. Why did he hold a stranger's hand in the movie store? Probably because he was paying attention to the cover of the movie and was not paying attention to who he was standing beside. My aha moment was when David told the moving truck man when someone says hi you need to say hi right back. He said that just as his sister told him to say that.

  1. Dear Caroline,

    This sounds like a very interesting story. My best friend's son is autistic so I might be able to relate to David's character. What are some of the rules he has to follow that you've come across so far. This bit of detail would take your post to the next level. Also, I am not understanding your "aha moment". An aha moment is when something finally makes sense...is that what happened?
