Visual Representation of Holden Caulfield
What do you think Holden Caulfield looks like? We do get a bit of a physical description of him from the novel but not much.
Create a “picture” of Holden. If you are artistically inclined, then go ahead and draw! However, if you’re not, use web images or magazine cut outs or whatever you need.
You also need to include 3 quotes from the story (with page numbers) that you think illustrate what Holden is all about.
Don’t forget to include his name . . . and yours!
