Title of Book: Frozen Charlotte

Author: Alex Bell

What was the problem in the book, and how was it solved? Be specific.

The problem in “Frozen Charlotte” is Sophie and her best friend Jay, go to a cafe and play

the Ouija Board app on Jay’s phone. Sophie had a bad feeling after this and made Jay

take his bike through the back roads instead of the highway. That night Jay’s bike went

over a cliff and he sadly drowned . Sophie now has to go to her cousin’s house on the Isle

of Skye. The house, before, was a school house. Sophie’s cousin, which she never met,

Rebecca froze to death. Her other cousins are, Cameron whose hand was burnt in a fire,

Piper who seems too perfect, and lastly the youngest, Lilias who has a fear of bones. Sophie

goes into Rebecca’s old room and sees these dolls. Lilias tells piper that they’re called ‘Frozen

Charlotte’ dolls. Immediately Sophie had a bad feeling. Throughout this story Sophie and

Lilias became very good friends. Sophie and Lilias start to hear and see things that happen

only because the dolls. Cameron tries to warn Sophie about Piper but she doesn’t believe it

until she sees what really happened the night of Rebecca’s death. Rebecca was somehow able

to show Sophie what happened that night. Sophie sees that Piper pushed Rebecca.  She knew

that the ‘Frozen Charlotte dolls were the reason Piper was acting so weird.

The solution to this problem is Sophie throws all the doll’s in Rebecca’s room into a bag and

into the ocean. Piper then gets very angry and tries to burn the house and do the same thing

she did to Piper to Sophie. She failed at both. Piper tried attacking Cameron and Sophie

intervened and killed Piper in self defense.

What was the author's purpose or purposes in writing the book? Explain how you know.

The author’s purpose of the story is to entertain. None of what happened in this story

could’ve happened in real life.

What did the title have to do with the book?

The title “Frozen Charlotte” is also the name of the dolls that control Piper to do bad things.

Tell in your own words how the setting of the story made it more interesting. Be specific.

The setting in the Isle of Skye affs to the creepiness of the story. The main setting is in

the mansion Sophie’s cousin’s mansion. Mansions are always creepy especially with a creepy

background. Their mansion’s background is an old school house. Not creepy until you know

what happened at the school house. The Frozen Charlotte dolls made one of the school girls

push  the headmistress down the stairs.

If one of the characters visited our classroom, what question would you ask them? (Make sure the

question relates to the plot/problem/actions of the story.) *Give the name of the character with

the question!!*

If Sophie’s uncle came to our class I’d ask why he never confronted Piper about dolls and

why he was never around during the whole problem.

Pretend you are a librarian recommending the book to someone. Write a paragraph telling

what you would say.

If you’re looking for a creepy, suspenseful story then Frozen Charlotte is for you. This

book is very interesting in that it is dealing with the paranormal. Frozen Charlotte is definitely

a book for the more thrill seeking people. In my opinion Frozen Charlotte is  one of the best

horror books out there. It is very engaging with the readers. This book is an eye catcher.

If they made a movie of this book, which scene would be most important to include. Explain

the scene with details and why it's important.

If they made a movie based on this book the most important scene would be the beginning of

the book at the cafe. In this scene Sophie and Jay play the ouija board app. This is when they

contact “Charlotte”, the spirit of the Frozen Charlotte dolls. During this scene it should also

include Jay riding his bike to see how he actually died versus how everyone is saying he died.

These parts would help the audience understand the later parts of the movie.
