Finding Your Thesis, Writing Your Introduction

You thesis should include the following ideas:

• Title and Author of the Book
• Is Holden Caulfield a normal teenager? OR Does Holden Caulfield have a psychological disorder? Which one?
• What are some of the characteristics or symptoms that support your opinion?
• In general, why is your diagnosis harmful to Holden Caulfield’s life?
  OR
  In general, why does Holden Caulfield need to be considered a normal teenager?
  

Once you have all this information, put the ideas into sentences roughly in that order. Don't forget to start your introduction paragraph with a hook!
