For this blog assignment, you will be recreating a scene from the Uglies into a cartoon. You will be utilizing "ToonDoo" again (the same software we used for the Edgar Allan Poe cartoons). After you have created the cartoon you need to save it as a picture. Upload the picture to your blog and then explain the scene and why it is important to the book in no less than eight sentences!
Mrs. Carn's Example
This scene occurred towards the end of part one of the book. I find it to be a major turning point in the book. This scene is where Tally is awaiting becoming a "Pretty" and Shay comes back to visit her one last time. Shay decides to run away and she asks Tally to go with her. Tally tells her that she wants to stay and become a "Pretty". Shay is shocked by this and upset that she didn't tell Tally her plan sooner. I think this is the turning point because from here on out everything changes about Tally's life. There is a ripple effect directly after - she doesn't get to become "Pretty," she is interrogated, she is forced to betray her friend, lie, and go on an unbelievably scary journey to seek out the "Smoke." Everything about Tally's life is now different based upon her friendship with Shay and her decision not to go with Shay. Shay entering Tally's life had some major effects - both good and bad. This scene really starts making the story great, in my opinion.
