Frankie is the protagonist of the novel, but the story is told from Music’s perspective. What does this point of view add to the story? Why do you think the author chose to tell Frankie’s story from Music’s perspective rather than from a different point of view?

Using textual evidence, describe Music as a character: Who is Music? Is it a reliable narrator? Why or why not?

Describe the role of Frankie’s guitar strings. Does magic turn them blue, or something else?
