Character+Analysis

>>This is what I imagine how Holden looks.

TY KIA AND RISLANGE Create a page describing most of the characters in the novel. Your webpage should include information about Holden, Pheobe, Stradlater, Allie, Ackley, and Mr. Antolini. It can (and would get a higher grade) if it included information on Maurice, Sunny, Old Spencer, D. B. and Holden's parents. Write your own details about each character, add pictures if you think they capture a character's physical appearance (hair, height, weight), link descriptions that others have written about any of these characters and include links that you think describe them. For example, create a link from Pheobe to a website that has information about gifted children.
