Reread the scene on pages 80-81 where Lucinda and Ashley sit on a bench and talk. What is the mood of this scene? MOOD: the atmosphere an author tries to create for a reader. (ex: suspenseful, eerie, sad, funny, etc.) Hint: use dialogue and setting to help you.

Mood is hopeful/positive. It's a beautiful night even though it's chilly. Lucinda and Ashley through conversation found out they have a lot in common.

Mood is scary. It's really cold. Lucinda is searching for the dog and doesn't care how worried her mom might be.

Mood is sad. It's dark, dreary. The girls can't find the missing dog and Lucinda cries a lot.

The mood is funny. Both girls laugh about not having any friends in school.

What do you think the girls were like at Lucinda's school in Cuba? Base your answer on Lucinda's description of the 'American' girls at her school in New Jersey.

On page 73, paragraph 5, Lucinda observes the New Jersey girls were not like any of the girls back home in Cuba. The author states that Lucinda is confused by the 'American' girls' behaviors. The girls at Lucinda's school in Cuba were more quiet and conservative. The dressed simply, hardly wore makeup, only spoke to teachers formally, hardly spoke to boys and lived life at a slower pace.

The girls at Lucinda's school in Cuba were similar as they liked to wear a lot of makeup, dressed up, talked about singers, and movie stars. They were always talking to each other, chatting often with each other, boys and even the teachers. Lucinda felt comfortable with this.
