What could Amanda do if she were a mermaid?
Who is the speaker in Stanzas 2, 4 and 6? Do you think this speaker is listening to the speaker in Stanzas 1, 3, 5, and 7?
Is Amanda an orphan? Why does she say so?
Do you know the story of Rapunzel? Why does she want to be Rapunzel?
What does the girl yearn for? What does this poem tell you about Amanda?
