1 ALLUSIONS NOT ILLUSIONS

2 What is an allusion??? An allusion is a reference to a well known person, event, place, or literary work.

3 I found an allusion in one of my favorite books, Artemis Fowl The Arctic Incident

4 In the book, one of the main characters, Commander Root, says “Hate to tell you this, Dorothy, but you ain’t in Kansas anymore.” This is a reference to the well known movie and book, The Wizard of Oz

5 You can tell that this is an allusion because Root calls Artemis Dorothy, the main character in The Wizard of Oz, and says that he’s not in Kansas anymore.

6 The End
