By using close reading in was able to and analyze the changes of the character in the book series” Kane Chronicles,” by Rick Riordan. But in this series there are two main characters named Sadie and Carter Kane. They are different in ways, yet they are both able to grow at extremely quick rate. Their growth affect their mental and emotional state. For this reason Carter and Sadie Kane are always changing.

In the book “The Red Pyramid,” Carter and Sadie constantly tease each other and used each other failures or actions as opportunities to bother each. But when they are in need of aid, they able to depend on one another’s help when needed most. For example, when Carter and Sadie just escaping the set creature attack when Sadie was still in her less defensive bird form. So Carter thought it would be helpful to share some of his moments with their missing father. One of them in particular was somewhat embarrassing, and yet his didn’t care. This shows his growth because, he is willing to do anything to help his sister.

Another reason why the” Kane Chronicles,” shows how two characters mature, is when Sadie and Carter chose not to rely on the power of the Gods inside their body and to use their only magic instead. This decision was difficult because by using that power both were to easily accomplish task. And without it, it would be harder to survive when they’re in danger.  But they also knew the dangers of using that power they become insane or their bodies would burn up for overusing that power. And because they made this choice on their own it shows the way they grown.

In conclusion” The Kane chronicles,” written by the author Rick Riordan, show the growth and change of both its main character minds and emotions. Both Carter and Sadie Kane are characters who become mature and wiser as the book goes on. This is a great example of character changes. It is like actually much like real life because, daily people are forced to choose and decide for themselves. And they growth every day because they learn just like characters in a book.
