Analysis Part 2

Style of the Autor's writing

Louis Sachar has a good balance between dialogues and the narrative style of writing. He mostly uses complete sentences. He works with flashbacks to give the story more depth. In this way you get to know the characters in a different way than when they are simply described. However, he doesn't attach great importance to detailed character descriptions. He doesn't put much effort into it. But that's not bad since the story is the more important aspect of the book. To sum it up i have to say it is written in a low level of english grammar. It is easy to understand the story without having issues.

Repetition or patterns I have noticed

He repeats very often that there are these yellow-spotted lizards whose bites usually end in dead. As i said, the flashbacks repeat themselves quiet a bit. And of course the whole scenery is like every day the same. The boys go on the field and dig holes and something happens. It could be more diversified.
