That could be true but what reason would they have to go on a trip?aboladeoluwatise wrote:I don't think he was that significant his part in the book could have been changed with little or no consequences.
How significant is Tom's grandfather, Bob-Bob, to the story?

Yes he is the backbone. Rightly said.Salsabila wrote:Bob-Bob is the backbone of the story even though he is barely mentioned but his character plays a great role in connecting the story and unrolling the main plot.

Well said, I agree.Maulyne wrote:Bob Bob is significant in the story because the story is created through him.If he wasn't involved in the then the story would a different plot.Tom and his crew going to the place where he was burried is the beginning of the story.

Definitely he is the connecting point of the story.ebethina wrote:I feel he is one of the main reasons why everyone came together in the story anyway because as Myra, William and Tom were ready to leave on their trip Sarah shows up then goes with them. I feel if it weren't for Bob-Bob they never would have gone on that adventure and become close as they did. This way Sarah also got to know more about her family and where she came from

Bob-Bob is significant because he was the link between the modern day journey and the thrower. If he had never taken Tom on their journey, Tom would not have the thrower and want to revisit Bob-Bob's burial site to return it. None of the journeys would have occurred and Sarah would never have gone her journey into the past.Amagine wrote:In the beginning, we learn that Tom and his friends are taking a trip to Tom's grandfather's grave. Later, we learn more about him from Tom's stories.
How important is his character to the overall story? How significant is he in the development of Tom's character or Sarah's?
