Comparing and Contrasting Characters
One way to learn about characters in your reading is to compare and contrast them with other characters.
How are they alike? How are they different? What do characters have in common and what sets them apart
from one another? Use the Venn diagram below to compare and contrast Grayson and Maniac Magee.
Remember to record the characters' similarities in the intersecting part of the two circles.
