For instance, when Laurie gets home from his school he tells his parents all about his day and what traumatic thing Charles had done. One day after Laurie came home from kindergarten, his mom wanted to know what that boy's name was. Laurie thought. ‘It was Charles,’ he said… (11). On the other hand, Laurie is a kindergartener that made up a kid who was named Charles. He made up Charles so he didn’t get in trouble by his parents for doing all of those things to his teachers, peers, and classmates. You can tell that Laurie is Charles in the story because they both have the same personalities. Laurie said to his dad “Hi, Pop, y’old dust mop’’ which is the way Charles acts. Some
of Laurie’s consequences for the things that he has done was getting his mouth washed out with soap, stand in the corner for time out, and detention.
