On the train

I found the mother rather amusing, especially in her insistence to reporters that her author son was not remarkable among her children and in fact was not even her brightest son. It was somewhat of a disappointment to me when her example of Grover's exceptional maturity and intelligence was his refusal to allow a black man to ride on their train car in Indiana. What were your thoughts?

The Square and Time

The first part was such a vivid portrait of the town square of Grover's childhood. What do you think this part told us about Grover?

What did you make of his sort of mantra, "this is Time," "this is the Square," "this is Grover"?

The Lost Boy

What did you all think? It was a little different, huh?
