"The Base Stealer" and "The American Hero" Paragraph

I think the character in the story is proud because he maybe scored, and the crowds pumped up.Like “taunts them, hovers like an ecstatic bird”, he’s expressing what he feels by taunting the other crowd, which probably thier shawning him.So he’s jumping for joy and putting down the audience.It also is like the star of the night or MVP, something that the people envy so I know they are boo-ing him.If I was him I would say something like “Yeah, I’m back!”.Then shake my head, this was maybe the best simile that’s out.

    Another one down! Good job!

    That's an interesting way of looking at that poem. When the boys played the recording of it during your class, I hadn't really thought of it like that; I can see it now, though.

    Also, that is a great simile to pick out of it.
