The following excerpt is from “Hitting Trees with Sticks” by Jane Rogers (published in 2010). In this passage, the speaker, an older woman named Celia Benson, arrives home from an outing. She has just walked by two children at play, one of whom is methodically hitting a tree with a stick. Read the passage carefully. Write a paragraph in which you make a defensible claim regarding how Rogers uses first-person point of view to express Celia’s complex perspective. In your paragraph, you should incorporate at least one piece of evidence from the text to support your claim.
