HW 46 - Research and Writing

Christopher John Francis Boone is a young autistic kid who finds a neighbors dead poodle on their lawn. Being one of the suspects Christopher takes it upon himself to find out who the real killer is. While doing his investigation he comes to find that his father has lied to him about his mother’s death and is also Wellington’s killer. Astonished Christopher runs away on a journey looking for his mother. Along the journey Christopher learns more about himself and pushes his comfort levels to new extents. I would say the main idea of the book is Christopher’s battle to understand humans and their emotions.
Although my book is about a teacher student relationship I wanted to focus more on the relationship they have in the classroom. The curious incident of the dog in the night-time is more about how the teacher / para affect’s Christopher in life.
In the text Christopher relates to his para Siobhan more as a friend that helps him glide through everyday life. Their relationship is very unique and precious because Siobhan has the role of teaching Christopher things that come natural to others. He has such a dependent relationship when it comes to her. She teachers him natural functions that come to people. Having a bond like that is what makes this teacher student relationship so rich. This relationship is perfect for what I’m trying to prove. Teacher student relationship’s can be very influential on a student’s life.
