What kind of person do you think Maniac Magee is? Would you want him for a friend and why?Why do you suppose Amanda laughed so hard and began to lose her balance when Jeffrey asked her if she was running away? (pg. 11) Why do you think he was puzzled by her reaction?
I think Maniac Magee is a mysterious person because he runs everywhere and normally does not talk to people and does crazy things like end Mcnabb’s strikeout record and throw a football with one hand and punt it very far. I would want him as a friend because he is very good at things and I would want to know him and help him find a home and give him food. It would be fun to do fun things with him as well.
I think Amanda laughed so hard because no one ever asks her if she is running away because everyone who talks to her goes to school and does not ask that. Maniac was puzzled by her reaction because he doesn’t expect someone to do that because everyone he talks to are running as well.
Also Maniac magee is sort of a good person because he a nice kid and he is a gentleman and he does lots of good stuff except runs away when something happens but hopefully Maniac’s life gets better for him and lets put “Hopefully” in quotes you never know what twist and turns could be in Maniac’s life.
