Kowalski vs. Hoodhood
Imagine a completely heartless dictator, Mr. Hoodhood, and then imagine a dictator who actually cares, Mr. Kowalski. In this chapter Mr. Kowalski starts of just like my description of Mr. Hoodhood, a heartless dictator. They were both willing to do anything to be the best architect, which is exactly what Mr. Kowalski attempts to do. Mr. Kowalski tried to steal Mr. Hoodhood's design inch by inch of the model. I don't know if it was the anger in Mr. Hoodhood's face, the amount of trouble he had put Holling in or the fact that his own daughter wouldn't even talk to him, but Mr. Kowalski took back his design. This leaves me wondering what Mr. Hoodhood would have done if the situation was switched. If you think about it the way that I do Mr. Hoodhood wouldn't have cared at all, he would be a dictator about the whole thing. And that's the difference between Mr. Kowalski and Mr. Hoodhood; one would care and the other wouldn't. That's what Ilike about this book; it leaves you wondering what will happen next. What would you have done if you were Mr. Kowalski?
