On page 15, the storage room is described as "huge. It was lined with rows upon rows of shelves, all full of crates and bottles and cases and sacks". Tucker says the room filled with artifacts "smells like an old book, but a hundred times as strong. And on top of that was the odor of rubber, like a new tire, and the smell of grease, like the floor of a garage" (15).

How does this description this help the reader understand what the room was like? What do you visualize in your mind's eye?

How would the image change if the bolded words changed to read: "big. It had lots of things on the walls". Tucker says the room filled with artifacts "smells bad and smells strongly" ?
