1. The main characters are the narrator and Calliope.
2. Calliope had lived in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
3. They were different because Calliope lived on a farm with cows and pigs and has 4 brothers, while the narrator grew up in Rhode Island, only has a dog, and is an only child. Calliope likes country music, but the narrator prefers Top 40.
4. They were alike because they both like to read, both have collections of Barbie dolls (seventeen and fifteen), and both enjoy collecting items (shells for the narrator, rocks with fossils for Calliope).
What kind of fossils might be in the rocks Calliope collected?
