Lexi

When I first read the book "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" I thought that Christopher was the only kid in the world who could ever act the way he acts based on the illness he has. After Watching "The Musical", I realized that Christopher was not the only kid who acts the way he acts. In fact, every one kid out of 250 are like Christopher (The Musical). There is this one girl named Lexi who I thought was like Christopher. There was this one moment in Lexi's life, when younger, that she closed her eyes, held her ears shut and basically just ignored everybody. This made me think of Christopher's black days Christopher ignores people and does not talk to any one that whole day. This situation resembles Lexi's time when she ignored everybody. Probably she was having her own type of black day. She seemed like a shy person who does not like to interact a lot. Her mother usually did not touch her either. This is how Christopher and his parents are. Christopher and his dad would usually put their hands by each other to replace hugging.
Another person who I thought was more like Christopher was Wyatt. Wyatt seemed like a normal kid for most of the time. He seems to know that he is in a class where everybody needs special help. He realizes that he is smarter than everybody. Christopher feels the same way about his class too. Henry is very smart kid who knows a lot about dinosaurs. I feel like Christopher resembles this kid in way, because Christopher knows many things about numbers and space.
