The Big Fields POV




  
            Authors Note: The Piece I am doing is about Point Of View. I am doing my piece on The Big Field By Mike Lupica.
            There is a lot of different points of views in every story like, in the book, The Big Field. The story is about a boy named Hutch, who loves the game baseball. He tries his best to get to the championship game.   
            There really isn’t a point of view to the story. The Point of view is most of the time the narrator’s but, Hutch could be the main Point Of View for periods of time, as long as many other people. I think that you can tell that because, sometimes it says that people talk to other people and say “I said.” After the text. However, most of the time it is the narrators point of view.
            There is an effect on the book in many ways by the different point of views. Like, when it says that Hutch hit a homerun, the narrator is saying, Then Hutch hit the ball and everyone saw it soaring through the air like a bird. After, They cheered in a frenzy because, they had just won the game.
            If it was in different text, Hutch would probably say this. I got into my stance and was ready to hit something good. After I saw the pitch, I out my weight on my back knee and swung as hard as I could. Then I didn’t see the ball anymore, and everyone was cheering so, I knew that I had hit the game winning homerun.
            Different POVS’ changes the mood, the character, and the tone of the book in this scene and many others. That happens a lot of books.
            Overall, every single book that you could read, could be changed a lot through Point Of View.
