FP- I was standing there in a stupid outfit, with a stupid owner, who was walking me down the stupid street. I felt…well…stupid
Point of View • Third-Person ObjectiveThe narrator is an outsider who can report only what he or she sees and hears. This narrator can tell us what is happening, but he can’t tell us the thoughts of the characters.
Tammy walked the dog Miguel down the street and to the dog park where they often run into Mike and his dog Chela. She was grinning ear to ear and the dog was following obediently, but not as excited as most dogs are when going to the park.
Point of View • Third-Person LimitedThe narrator is an outsider who sees into the mind of one of the characters.
TPL-Tammy was all excitement and joy on the inside. She could not wait to show Mike, her eye candy at the dog park, how “into” dogs she was.
Point of View • Omniscient The narrator is an all-knowing outsider who can enter the minds of more than one of the characters.
TPO-Miguel the dog felt silly, he wanted to melt into the sidewalk, or really use the cape and fly away, but Tammy thought this was the best day they, as a dog and owner, had ever had. She couldn’t wait to show him off to Mike at the dog park and how “into dogs” she was. Little did she know Mike was so not “into” her.
