I Capture the Castle

3 texts:
1. Anne of the Island by L.M. Montgomery
2. Heidi by Johanna Spyri
3. Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

Statement:
I found the character of Cassandra's father to be very interesting. We never knew much about him, other than he was a writer that now refuses to write and now spends most of his time locked in a room alone. I was very curious about him throughout the whole story.

Question:
I was wondering if we ever knew Cassandra's age? I never noticed it in the text(I may have missed it) but was always wondering how old she was. Everyone refers to her as a child, yet she is so responsible and seems to be almost in the "head" of the house position.
