Short Story 

A fictional story that is usually shorter than a novel. 

Therefore readers can often read it in one go. The story deals with only a few characters in a few, but important scenes. There is no complex plot and characters are not fully developed. A short story always has the sam plot structure: introduction, rising action, climax, falling action and resolution.

1) Who is Billy Weaver? What do we know about him? (character)

2) Where is Billy going and where is he in the beginning of the story? (setting)

Let's read together

Start at: "On the other hand....."

There are many examples of foreshadowing (a warning or an indication of a future event) in the story Can you find them?
