Entry 3- August 14
In the book, Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, the section that hooks the reader is when Aristotle and Dante meet each other.
Aristotle met Dante at the pool and Dante gave Aristotle swim lessons. They always talked about their lives and anything that was going through their mind. This sudden event made both of their lives change drastically. They started to hang out at each other's house and mostly talked about different things. However, they were surprised by the fact that both were totally different from one another.
This section of the book hooks the potential reader because the mood and tone of the book changes wanting the reader to continue throughout the book. As you begin the book, the mood is lonely. This is because Aristotle says his life is boring and miserable. After Aristotle meets Dante, the mood changes to grateful. They are happy to be with each other, but they may not always be happy.
The tone throughout the book in the beginning was depressing. The author used negative words to describe how the person was feeling. Then after Aristotle and Dante met, the tone changed to excitement. They would always laugh and have fun and bring smiles to each other's faces.
