The story took place in 1957, where second-graders Bryce Loski and Julianna Baker first
meet in their restful neighborhood.

Rick Loski is Bryce's dad, halfway through Flipped we
this character has no learn that he is physically and
empathy. mentally disabled)
TRINA BAKER

(Bryce's close bud) hardworking mom)
PLOT DIAGRAM :
EXPOSITION :
When Bryce's family moves onto Juli's block,
we've got two second-graders who might get
to be new friends. Right away, we learn that
Juli has a huge crush on Bryce… but Bryce is
not so into Juli.
RISING ACTION :
As they grow up, all Bryce wants is for Juli to
leave him alone. And all Juli wants is
for Bryce to pay a little attention to her.
They just can't see eye to eye, though,
so we've got a fair bit of conflict going on.
Plus, things get even more complicated when
you throw in a controversial sycamore
tree and some homegrown eggs
CLIMAX :
We've got two big climactic events in this
story. The sad climax is that Bryce is a jerk
about Juli's uncle, so Juli stops liking Bryce.
The happy climax is that Bryce realizes
what a fool he's been about Juli all these
years, so he tries to kiss her.
FALLING ACTION :
After Bryce tries to kiss Juli, his buddy Garrett ditches him
And then Juli won't talk to him. But Bryce starts
trying really hard to figure out how to show
Juli that he's a seriously changed dude. With
Bryce turning into a better person, the conflict
in this movie is starting to get all wrapped up.
RESOLUTION :
This story doesn't end with a ton of resolution,
but if we have to guess, we're voting that the
two lovebirds are on the path to romance.
After all, Juli does seem open-minded about
Bryce again.
END.
