Grammardog Guide to Billy Budd by Mary Jane McKinney Pdf
Grammardog Teacher's Guide contains 16 quizzes for this sea tale. All sentences are from the novella. Figurative language compares the innocent Billy Budd to birds (goldfinch, migratory bird) and "a young horse fresh from the farm." Biblical allusions support the theme of difficult moral decisions (Adam, the serpent and the apple of knowledge, Abraham and Isaac, Jonah, Saul and David, and Joseph).
