Chapters 3-4

At the beginning of chapter 3, David received a splinter. Going into the kitchen to seek help, he soon realized that everybody was busy so, he tried to help himself. When his mother saw the struggle David was in to wrap his own hand, she offered assistance. He then casually stated that he would be able to do it himself if he had three hands. This did not sit well with his father, and he became enraged that David would say such a thing. He was baffled at the thought of wanting to be different. They fought over saying it would be easier, and wanting to be different. It's at this part of the book that we start to get a better understanding of what the average life is like. Trying to be normal, wanting to be normal. However in chapter 4, David shows us that he has telepathic capabilities. Overall, I really liked these chapters. I thought they were different and interesting. They gave us a better look on their world. Also after chapter four, the book cover starts to explain itself better.
