In my book I think Jayson is a dynamic character because even though his mom left him for good, the book makes him over go through those hardships which makes him do what he does. When Jayson's mom leaves him, he tries to not get caught by the CPS, and as he grows up, he develops and becomes who he is, making the story liked, and he grows up to have friends and a sport he likes.

I think my book's conflict is Man vs Society because In the book it tells about how Jaysons mother leaves for good and tell's Jayson to not get caught by child protective services and to survive. In pg 12 it said "Jayson I wont be back, try to survive but don't get caught by child protective services" he shows it is man vs Society by stealing thing's in order to survive but not get caught by Child protective services

My predictions for the main character Jayson Barnes is that he will be found by child protective services because he was trying to survive but has done lots of risky things. He will be placed into a a new family, and will may be get kicked out. One of the reasons I think of this is because of the back, on the back it says how he may get found. In chapter 1, his mother passes away, leading him to fend for him self.

The point of view of the book "fast break" is told by a 3rd person omniscient. This is because the narrator know's what the character's are feeling, the narrator also know's what they are thinking in all the character's head's. ex: "coach Ronny was really disappointed at Jayson, but Jayson didn't notice" on page 47. Showing that the narrator know's what the character's are thinking. This is the point of view.

Jayson Barnes is the main character in the book "Fast Break". Jayson Barnes is a children/teen who has group of friends who love to play basket ball, some of his friends aren't the brightest or the smartest but he has a crew(his group of friends) This book from what I read so far, from what I think Jayson may be nice but lives in a bad area and his friends are sometimes bad friends/kids. He also grows up in America.

Diary of a wimpy kid is a diary of a kid who thinks he's in a movie.
His story is about him and his life. I think he lives in Plainview Massachusetts where the author Jeff Kinney lives. though it was never stated I think he lives there because of his author. since if the author lives there, I would think the book, diary of a wimpy kid would live there too. Diary wimp kid is about how the main charter lives his life.

Diary of a wimpy kid Is a genre of fiction
humor and young adult literature.
Its literature because it's a diary for young kids/adults and has lots of literature. It has lots of humor like jokes and funny things the charters do or say. Its also fiction because its not real! Although its a diary of a child its not a real story. These factors show how the book thought a diary its genre is fiction, humor and literature
