When I first started reading "Cardturner" I right away knew that the author, Louis Sachar, would teach me all about playing bridge. The novel is talking about a teenage boy needing to play bridge with his great-uncle after his uncle loses his eyesight. When the character, Alton, begins to understand the game by turning his uncle's cards for him, the reader also learns. Before reading this novel, I knew nothing about bridge. Even though it's hard to understand, I'm getting there. Bridge is a card game that normally elders play. From reading this novel, I learned a lot about this card game bridge.
