Question

How would the short story "Stray" be different if it the story were told from Mr. Lacey's first-person point of view?



Small details of the story would be different, but the plot of the story would remain the same.

There would be no change in the story except for the pronouns used in the narrative.

The reader would hear Mr. Lacey's thoughts about the dog and would follow him to the pound. The reader wouldn't get to see Doris's actions or hear her thoughts about the dog.

The reader would be able to see everything that happens in the story—from Doris's reactions and emotions to Mr. Lacey's thoughts, concerns, and actions.
