MargoliesWriting Hint for In-Class Essay on The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time In his novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Mark Haddon puts the reader inside the head of Christopher Boone, a young man who suffers from Asperger Syndrome. Many readers have applauded the author for bringing attention to those in our society who fall within the autism spectrum. Mr. Haddon has stated that he hopes the book will increase awareness and sensitivity toward individuals who think and function in a fashion that is different from what is commonly considered normal. The author might hope to elicit sensitivity from us, but Christopher doesn’t always elicit sensitivity from the other characters in the book. In a five-paragraph essay, describe three instances in which characters say insensitive things to Christopher. Use three quotes from three different charactersInclude an APA citation for each quote Explain why each quote was insensitiveWrite 5 paragraphs—an introduction, three body paragraphs, and a conclusionMake sure your introduction includes a three-part thesisProofread for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and capitalization
