Anthropomorphic Characters

Picture Walk

While reading A Wrinkle in Time, we meet all sorts of interesting characters from history and literature.

Along the way we meet the White Rabbit a fictional and anthropomorphic character in Lewis Carrol’s book, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.

When I explained the term anthropomorphic character to my students I understood that the characters are animals with human characteristics, however, they stumped me with the question- are monsters anthropomorphic?

Some sites say they are and others say they aren’t. I am not sure.

I think they should be. So I gave my students credit for animals and monsters.
