A modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more. For select classroom titles, we also provide Teaching Guides with discussion and quiz questions to prompt student engagement.

Discussion/Analysis Prompt

Think about Dr. Eleven as a mirror for the characters in the novel. What does it show them? What do characters learn from it? Why is the comic so important to those who read it? Compare how different characters read and interpret the comic. Does it mean something different to each person?

Teaching Suggestion: Consider allowing students to discuss in small groups or providing think time before responding. Students may require a copy of the novel to look back on while answering this question.

Differentiation Suggestion: Consider allowing students who require additional assistance to analyze Arthur instead of comparing how different characters read and interpret Dr. Eleven. Arthur has a complex relationship with the people around him, but they are all tied to him somehow. Allow students to explore the characters, their connections to Arthur, and how each character feels about him.
