The book i have just finished reading is Skud.
Foon, Dennis. Skud. Toronto: Groundwood, 2003. Print.
For the first Significant element I will write about is when Tommy and Brad plan on beating up Andy because Tommy thinks Shelia and him are cheating but a unknown character Shane comes in a helps out Andy before he gets too badly beaten up so Tommy and Brad are scared of Shane because he is part of a gang and becomes a main charcter in the story. Here is a quote from shane once he comes to the cage and sees Them beating up andy "I'm his backup,"saith he(Foon,42). This reveals character traits about the supporting character Shane who here becomes a main character by seeing that he isnt some tough guy who just kills but someone that cares.
The second Significant element I will write about is what introduces a crisis to the main character Brad when the hockey arena burns down from flammables left in the change room from a girl that joins the team and when he gets put down to the fourth line of his team and his dreams of getting drafted to the NHL. The first quote is "I'm putting you on the fourth line, Brad."(Foon,89). "Alas, now all is charred and cindered. Nothing is left. Hockey is dead."(Foon, 125) This quote was made by brad after the fire came to the rink.
Interesting significances. Watch some of your capitals and 'said'. Now that I know a little about a few of the characters I wouldn't mind checking this book out. This book seems to have quite the story line.
