*The Great Mouse Plot - spotlight on reading

This week's longer text is an excerpt (utdrag) from Roald Dahl's book Boy - Tales of Childhood. Roald Dahl based this book on his own childhood, but as he says himself: "An autobiography is a book a person writes about his own life and it is usually full of all sorts of boring details. This is not an autobiography." He spiced up the stories from his own life by adding ingredients such as a good plot, good characters and bad characters, drama, comedy, suspense, a cunning plan etc. 

Read the excerpt called "The Great Mouse Plot" here (you will also get it in class). Write down ten words you find difficult and translate them in to Norwegian in your notebook. 

Then write one paragraph (remember the minimum of five sentences) where you explain whether you liked the excerpt or not. Give examples from the text. Try to comment on Roald Dahl's writing style. Start your paragraph like this:

I really liked "The Great Mouse Plot" because....

OR

I did not like "The Great Mouse Plot" because...

This is homework for Friday the 11th of September.
