|THE EGYPT GAME (Connector)

The Egypt Game, by Zilpha Keatley Snyder.

 In the book April Hall goes to the A-Z Antiques shop. She looks at the many ancient objects that are on display. April Hall looks at the Professor, who is the shopkeeper. He has a short, thin, gray beard and he is very silent. She asks him questions, and he answers in one or two sentences at a time. 

 I can connect to this because in my old school we had an Antiques Garden Sale, and the teacher who was selling African wooden toys was very silent. Mr. Voudoire  just stood there and whenever you asked him about the prices he would point to the signs that were on the tables. If you asked him about something else he would answer in very short sentences.
 I connected my old school Antiques Garden Sale because Mr. Voudoire was silent and had a short, thin grey beard, just like the Professor. He was very silent and spoke in a few sentences, just like the Professor. This is how I can connect the Professor with Mr. Voudoire.
