Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time (1,2,3)


1. I saw how Christopher changed when he found out that his mom didn’t die and she was actually in London and his dad hid all the letters his mom sent to him. He became so scared and worried that his dad would hurt him in some way like he killed Wellington and he did not love his dad like he did before he found out. Coming from his mental state, that was a scary situation for him. He looks at his dad like a cold blooded murderer and does not even want to be in the same place as his dad.

2. I find it interesting that people like Christopher with a mental disability can be very smart. He can name every prime number up to some odd thousand and how he has the system with the color of cars to determine whether it’s a good day or a black day. That is one thing that made this book interesting because it came from his point of view and how he viewed life and certain situations.

3. I think the most attention grabbing part was when Christopher found the letters from his mom and when his dad told him everything that happened and why he killed Wellington. I wasn’t really shocked when the dad said he killed the dog because his wife was having an affair with the other guy. I kind of put those puzzle pieces together on that but this part was very interesting.
