  1. A quote is an important sentence, or part of some dialogue a character says. It either tell's a lot about the theme of the book, or what the character really feels, or just something that continually keeps happening throught the story/play etc. Or it could just be a great 'one-liner' that stays in your head, and reminds you of that movie/story etc,

    For example: This is a quote from Frodo Baggins and Gandalf in the Fellowship of the Ring -

    "Always after a defeat and a respite, the Shadow takes another shape and grows again."

    "I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo."

    This highlights a theme Tolkien incorporated into the Lord of the Rings: Even though defeated, evil and trouble comes back in different forms and shapes, and becomes strong a again. And Frodo's reply, the small hero who simple wishes, like so many who go through disatser like war and destruction, "I wish it didn't happen in my time, that it didn't happen to me, to us."

    That's just an example of important quotes from books. If you need to find a quote from certain chapters in books, read the chapter and highlight key lines and sentences from characters or just descriptions, lines that are the main theme or problem in each chapter.  


  2. Press shift and the comma key! :) kidding!

    When you are reading the book, write down the line that you like the best and that is the "quote" that you will say made the chapter most interesting because....blah blah blah...whatever you think....The teacher wants you to notice detail to show you read the chapter!
