For example, when describing the old woman, he says “she is the color of white mice: pink scalp showing through her white hair, pink eyelids. Spinelli is very descriptive when introducing the characters. The second reason I like book is because of the characters. For example, as Zinkoff gets older, “he no longer wears paper stars on his shirts… he replaces his little kid giggle with a big kid laugh…he no longer yells “yahoo…” he admits to sleeping.” The author repeats the word “he” and throughout the book, there are also may other uses of repetition. To start off, the first reason I love this book is because of the repetitive language in the book. Through the struggles he faces, he always stays true to himself. Time and time again, Zinkoff never fails to make a fool of himself until one day he nearly dies trying to find a young child, Claudia. Zinkoff struggles to make friends as he is isn’t smart in school, non-athletic, and constantly laughing. “Loser” is about this young boy named Donald Zinkoff (everyone calls him Zinkoff) who is considered a bit peculiar to others.
