        <description><![CDATA[A play on words is a literary technique where words are used in an unusual way, putting emphasis on the words themselves in an unconventional manner.  A pun, which is when an alternate meaning of a word is exploited with a humorous intent, is an example of a play on words.
In the example about which you are asking, Nadia uses two words which are almost identical to create an interesting literary effect.  In response to Noah's facetious...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I believe that the climax of the book The View from Saturday occurs when the Souls defeat Maxwell in the Academic Bowl, bringing the state championship to Epiphany.  This event occurs in Chapter 10, and is the culmination of not only of a long year of hard work for the team, but signifies the end of the journey of the four members and their teacher, Mrs. Olinski.  The defining moment comes when Julian correctly answers the last two questions...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Nadia says that "turtles had brought Grandpa and Margaret together".
The year after his wif, Bubbe Frieda died, Nadia's Grandpa Izzy sold the house that they had lived in together and moved to Century Village.  Like many of the Village's residents, he soon got in the habit of going for a walk every morning, and one spring morning he noticed a blond, "pleasingly plump" woman returning about the same time he was leaving.  Grandpa began to...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Julian demonstrates resourcefulness in his response to a cruel trick perpetrated against him by one of his classmates.  In that incident, Hamilton Knapp grabs Julian's book bag, and, before Julian can catch him and get it back again, writes "I am an ass" on its side with permanent marker.  Julian keeps the damaged side of the book bag hidden against the wall of his cubby during the rest of the school day, and on the way home that evening,...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Nadia and her mother move to Epiphany because Nadia's mother and father have just gone through a divorce.  Epiphany, which is in upstate New York, is where Nadia's mother grew up, and she wants to return there because she says "she need(s) some autumn in her life".  When her mother and father were together, the family lived in Florida.  New York is a long distance away from Florida, and has more distinct seasons than its southern...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[From what I can see, the author did an excellent job resolving the myriad different threads in the story, especially those involving the central characters.  Noah, who is forced to spend the summer at Century Village, realizes that he has learned a lot from the experience and has come to appreciate the people there.  Nadia has come to terms with her parents' divorce, and Ethan has learned to come out of his shell, having found the courage to...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[At the beginning of the novel, Noah is complaining and dissatisfied.  His parents are making him write a thank you note to his grandparents, and he doesn't want to.  Upon reflecting on his experiences at Century Village that past summer, however, Noah realizes that he has a responsibiity to give "just a few drops back to the bottle" (Chapter 1).  By the end of the story, Noah has become a little less egotistical and more appreciative of...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The Souls refusal to practice at school on Saturday reveals that their tea ritual is very important to them - it is something that they are not willing to miss under any circumstances.
Mrs. Olinski is "surprised and disappointed" when the Souls politely tell her that they "would prefer not to" have an extra practice on Saturday afternoon.  The team had always "been willing - even eager - to practice", but she now discovers that their Saturday...]]></description>
