Friday October 8,2010how is the meaning of the story affected by the setting?
Or in other words, can the setting take place somewhere else,
would it change the plot of the story?
use supporting details for the book.
In the book GYM CANDY by Carl Deuker the meaning of the story is affected by the setting. The main character Mick is a football player that lives in Seattle. Mick wants to follow in his fathers footsteps and become a star football player and play in the NFL. Mick Johnson is determined not to make the same mistakes his father, a failed football hero, made. But after being tackled just short of the end zone in a big game, Mick begins using “gym candy,”The setting can be take place anywhere football can be played so not just in seattle where Mick began to play.
