The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon
Pgs. 1-16

Bottom pg. 1, what was the dog’s name? Who did he belong to?

From the first 3 pages it is clear to see that the chapters/breaks are numbered abnormally (2, 3, 5, etc.). What do you think the numbers represent? (Keep in mind the quote on page 2 when Christopher says, “I know all the countries of the world and their capital cities and every prime number up to 7,057”.)

Pg 2-3, what did you think of Christopher’s discussion of the face drawings? If you were to guess, who is Siobhan? Also, what kind of disorder might Christopher have?

Bottom pg 3 to top pg 4, why does Christopher like dogs?

What kind of book is Christopher writing? Why?

Bottom pg 6 to top pg 7, why does Christopher make “the noise that Father calls groaning”?


Bottom pg 10, what will happen when the universe has finished exploding?


Mid pg 12, how are prime numbers like life?

Mid pg 14, how would Christopher escape from the jail cell?

Bottom pg 14 to top pg 15, what can raising one eyebrow mean?
