Dewberry Interviews Ju-ju
Dewberry: Where were you born?
Ju-ju: In a magical lily pond in the garden of a giantess.
Dewberry: How did you learn to air-swim?
Ju-ju: From a library book about birds and planes.
Dewberry: Was it hard to learn?
Ju-ju: The first time was really scary because I got air up my nose. Then I remembered I was a magical fish and could breathe air, so I was okay after that.
Dewberry: What do you like to eat?
Ju-ju: Watermelon, cheesy crackers, and worms.
Dewberry: What are your favorite things to do?
Ju-ju: Blow bubbles and look for fairies.
Dewberry: Why do you like fairies so much?
Ju-ju: Because they are pretty and kind, and they can fly!
Dewberry: What is your favorite kind of art?
Ju-ju: Watercolor paintings. (Ju-ju sighs.) I love watercolors.
Dewberry: What kind of music do you like?
Ju-ju: Handel’s Water Music.
Dewberry: Do you have any advice for our readers?
Ju-ju: Drink water instead of soda. It’s better for you.
Your Own Interview
Using Dewberry’s interview of Ju-ju as an example, try interviewing a friend or family member. You can learn a lot about someone just by asking some simple questions. In fact, you may learn something you never knew before! Here are some sample questions to get you started, but try coming up with some on your own. The key to a good interview is to ask questions that require more than a “yes” or “no” answer. For example, instead of asking, “Do you like fairies?” ask, “Why do you like fairies?” You will get an answer that is much more fun and interesting!
