Presentation- Honesty vs Being Streetwise

Big question- how can Dick be honest as well as streetwise?

First point- Chapter 7- The Pocket-Book

- Dick knows how to cheat people but still considers himself honest
- Send a bad message to children?

Second point- Chapter 11- Dick as Detective

- Dick is completely honest and does not use his knowledge of how to swindle people
- End of chapter, Dick is rewarded with money- right message?

Third point- Chapter 9- A Scene in a Third Avenue Car

- Dick stands up against dishonesty
- Interesting change of Dicks character from previously in the book

Conclusion

- Dicks character develops throughout the novel
- What made these changes occur?
- Consider the big question at the beginning of the presentation
