Understanding Characters - authors try to create story characters that seem like real people with believable feelings, traits and personalities. Traits are ways of speaking and acting to show what a character is like. By examining a character's actions, words and thoughts, they can determine his or her motives or reasons for doing something. Authors often have characters grow and change during the course of a story.
VISUALIZATION - use text details to form pictures in your mind. Visualize the characters' actions and behaviors to help better understand the text.
