1. The first 21 pages of CI starts out with the main character and narrator christopher discovering hsi neighbor Mrs.Shears's dead dog on her lawn. Christopher wonders who has killed the ddog and examines it as he is doing this  Mrs.Shears appears on the patio and starts yelling at Christopher because she thinks she had killed the dog. Christopher didnt understand why Mrs.Shears was yelling at him so he decided to curl up into a ball and cover his ears. At this point the reader finds out that  they are reading christophers muder novel. After a while of christopher laying on the grass two police officers arrive, at first christopher is not phased by the policemen but once one stasrts to ask him many questions and lift him up christopher hits the policman. Then the police officer stares at christopher for a very long time and then decides to arrest christopher for assult of a police officer. Once christopher arrives at the police starion he empties everything in his pockets and is put into a a jale cell. when Christophers dad arrives ariives christopher is taken to an investigator and is let go with just a warning. On the ride home Christopher apologizes to his dad and the dad doent want to talk about it. The 21 pages end with christopher seeing his dad crying and watching tv very late at night and when the dad is asked id he's sad about wellington he replies yes.

2  My favorite part of the book so far is when Christopher is expainigh why he thinks people are confusing. I escpecially liked when he describes a metaphor as being a metaphor and how metaphors should be called a lie. To me the voice of the narrorater is kinf of confusing because since christopher as the narrorater can't define a persons mood  neither can I as the reader.

3 I think the opening to CI could maybe compared to Night because it is written in a way where the narroator is reflecting on an event that has happened to them earlier in life. It also could compare to night because at many moments in the both book the narrorater uses imagery to show you really how tey saw the event.

4 One way that me and Christopher see the world similarly is that he finds it very confusing for a word to have more than one meaning and I as well think that. Beacause of this Christopher doesnt tell jokes but unlike him i will still tell jokes.
