            characterization make the person's personality get real inside your head like in this example.

"She seemed terribly nice. She looked exactly like the mother of one’s best school friend welcoming one into the house to stay for the Christmas holidays. Billy took off his hat and stepped over the threshold.   "

This affirm to us that the landlady was a nice woman, it shows that it was a kind and a sweet woman, a kind of woman that anyone would suspech.

He stopped walking. He moved a bit closer and observed. Green curtains (some sort of velvety material) were hanging down on either side of the window. The chrysanthemums looked wonderful beside them. He went right up and peered through the glass into the room, and the first thing he saw was a bright fire burning in the hearth. On the carpet in front of the fire, a pretty little dachshund was curled up asleep with its nose tucked into its belly. The room itself, so far as he could see in the half darkness, was filled with pleasant furniture. There was a baby grand piano and a big sofa and several plump armchairs, and in one corner he spotters  a large parrot in a cage  this quote make the reader imagine a warm house were fire is burning, the coach seems soft and conformable. Roald is using the sens of visualize, of watch. In the quote is clarified that Billy is observing the inside of the house and very comfortable place to stay.

Every store have a purpose a message that teach us the importance of life and teach us things that are usfull life. What Roald Dahl is trying to transmit to us is that appearances are sometimes not what they look like  the landlady. This story is very well design stories that make us fell be in the story. .
