Firstly, Christopher gives straight answers to the police officer. When Christopher is talking to the police officer, he says “why were you holding the dog” Christopher says “ I like dogs”... “is this your fork”? “No”. (Haddon,8). You can not give straight answers because people may think you do not want to talk to them or being rude, or a police officer may think your lying. Secondly, Christopher Boone is not comfortable around new people. When Mrs. Alexander said “Do you want to come in for tea?” Christopher says “I don't go into other peoples houses” (Haddon,4). When he said this it showed he was not comfortable enough with her to go in her house even though she knew him for awhile. Lastly, To Christopher all strangers a re dangerous. When Christopher was looking for somebody to ask where the train station was he said “So i got out my Swiss army knife and flicked out the saw blade and I held it tightly in the pocket Toby was not in so i could stab someone if they grabbed hold of me”.

Firstly, Christopher Boone does stuff when under stress. When the police man was asking Christopher questions Christopher said “I rolled back into the lawn and pressed my forehead into the ground and made this noise called groaning. (Haddon,7). This shows behavioural problems because it is not normal to roll on the ground in front of a police officer. Secondly, Christopher like to put stuff in a certain way. When Christopher went to the police station he emptied his pockets and said what he had “(1). A peace of wooden puzzle which looked like this, (2) three pellets of rat food for Toby my rat, (3) a red paper clip” (Haddon 13). This shows behavioural problems because normal people would just name them if not in 1,2,3 step form. Finally, Christopher has different ways to clear his head. When Christopher was confused at the train station and did not know what to do. He said “Then i tried to think about what i had to do... So I did a maths problem to make my head clear.” (Haddon 146). This shows behavioural problems because people do not do maths problems to clear their head they would breath instead. Christopher Boone shows behavioural problems because he do not act normal around other
