COMPARISON/CONTRAST character analysis

Write a 500-600-word essay that compares and contrasts the character traits of Walter Mitty (“The Secret Life of Walter Mitty”) and Smithers (“The Two Bottles of Relish”).

Use the Book Report 3 format as a guide.

Be sure to focus on character traits or similarities and differences between them, not circumstances or situations or physical traits.

A Comparison/Contrast Checklist is available from my website. (See “Book Reports and Essays.”)
