Today I wish I was one hundred and two instead of eleven because if I was one hundred and two I’d have known what to say when Mrs. “Only today I wish I didn’t have only eleven years rattling inside me like pennies in a tin Band-Aid box.

The narrator should not be confused with the author, who is the writer of the story and whose opinions may not be those written into the narrative. Many stories have the protagonist telling the story, while in others, the narrator may be another character or an outside viewer, a narrator who is not in the story at all.
This viewpoint will give the narrator a partial or whole view of events as they happen. Depending on who the narrator is, he/she will be standing at one point and seeing the action. The author chooses “who” is to tell the story by determining the point of view. Point of view (POV) is what the character or narrator telling the story can see (his or her perspective).
