Literature Evaluative Criteria
Characters – Pennypacker uses
her words throughout the book to express how dull and boring the Dullard family
are. The parents try to keep their children as dull as possible, but no matter
what they try on the surface the children appear dull, but when the parents are
not watching they try to explore their world. The illustrator helps the character
development with the facial features that are used on the children and parents
of the Dullard family.
