Characterization: The author introduces the personality of the character in conversations. In pg. 301 Lyra says ""And they put me in a van with some other kids and took me somewhere, a big building, I dunno where it was" Another sob shook her briefly, and she could pretend this one was caused by her story. She was doing something difficult yet familiar, namely lying." This shows how Lyra was actually good at lying.
