For my book report I read the book The Pigman by Paul Zindel. The book is about two sophomores named John and Lorraine who befriend a man named Angelo Pignati over the phone while they were prank calling random strangers with two friends from school. Each chapter of the book is written in the perspective of either John or Lorraine and they are telling the story on a school typewriter in their library. John started out in the first chapter and Lorraine took the second then John took the third and it went back and forth from there. The reason Mr.Pignati is dialed was very specific rather than random.

Certain quotes in this story do a marvelous job of highlighting these intricate characters’ development. The quotes in this novel display character development by showing that John and Lorraine learned to take advantage of their freedom, question their happiness, and to question their decisions.
