The Crossing RemixedBy: Isaac De La Cruz

Characterization

Well developed characterization throughout the

entire book

Billy

16yr old with a lot of spunk and has no problem going out of his

way to help someone or something

Boyd

14yr old with the mouth to ask a question a minute

Pap

Nice man who wants to teach his kids the ropes

Mom

Thinks Boyd asks too many questions

Setting

• I get the feeling

of dense woods

as the beginning

unfolded but as it

went on there

was a transition

to the dry plains

in Arizona and

into the Mexican

Mountains

Plot

This all revolves around Billy who is

so infatuated with catching this Wolf

he has no clue what he’s going to do

with it.

Once he catches it he wants to take it

home but realizes he can’t do that so

he set out to take it to the mountains

of Mexico where it came from so that

it may deliver it’s pups.

Theme

The lesson for me in this book was do well

for others even if you’re in immediate threat

of being mauled to death

Another thing that stood out was how

courteous Billy was it seemed no matter

what situation he always said please and

thank you with no back talk

Keeping your composure was what

seemed to be another big part of the novel
