Storyboard Text

  • Theme Analysis of "Growing Down" by Shel Silverstein
  • "Why don't you grow up?" grumped GrowUp Brown (line 16).
  • Theme of "Growing Down": Children's innocence allows them to appreciate the small joys in life.
  • "The crabbiest man in our whole darn town" (line 3).
  • Supporting Text Evidence #1- After Mr. Brown makes the decision to grow down..
  • "So Mr. Brown began to singAnd started doing silly things" (line 45-46).
  • Supporting Text Evidence #2: After taking part in childlike activities, Mr. Brown comes to the conclusion that
  • "It's much more fun this growing down" (80).
  • Reasoning:When Mr. Brown made the decision to "grow down" and become more childlike in his choices, he stopped grumping and being crabby. Instead he takes advantage of the small joys in life like climbing trees and playing games. Mr. Brown finds these activities fun; they bring him joy.
  • Thanks kids for encouraging me to appreciate the small joys in life and not be so grumpy!
