Thanks, those of you who shared ideas in class today during our discussion of Holden's character.  I was very satisfied with the quality of the topic sentences you shared at the end of class; most were right on the mark (remember that a topic sentence often begs a question as a way to create interest).

Please have Chapters 11 - 13 read prior to Monday's class.
