where did Holden and Jane spend there summer

Maine

"I held hands with her all the time, for instance. That doesn't sound like much, I realize, but she was terrific to hold hands with [...] You never even worried with Jane, whether your hand was sweaty or not. All you knew was, you were happy. You really were" (Salinger 79). How does this quote characterize Holden's relationship with Jane?

She makes him happy, and he forgets all of his problems when with her, and thinking about her. He also cares about her innocents.

Who does Holden see on the train?

A boy from his school (Ernest Morrow) mother

What does Holden ask his cab driver?

Asks him if he wants to hang out.

What does Holden do before he leaves Pencey?

He cries

As Holden is leaving his dorm, he says, "When I was all set to go, when I had my bags and all, I stood for a while next to the stairs and took a last look down the goddam corridor. I was sort of crying. I don't know why" (Salinger 52). But then he shouts, "Sleep tight, ya morons" (52)! What do you think is significant about this?

He does not like Pencey, but he also does not like change. (answers can vary)

Why does Holden get sad when he gets presents?

He feels like he is not worthy, and does not deserve them

What lies does Holden tell Mrs. Morrow?

He says his name is Rudolf Schmid, he makes it seem like he likes her son, he says he has a brain tumor.

When Holden describes his relationship with Jane, he says, "You never wanted to kid Jane too much. I think I really like it best when you can kid the pants off a girl when the opportunity arises, but it's a funny thing. The girls I like best are the ones I never feel much like kidding" (Salinger 78). Based on this quote, what would you say is Holden's ideal romantic relationship?

He wants to be so comfortable with them, there is no need to be mean or critical. He is looking for someone who understands him.

who says "If i was a piano player, id play it in the goddam closet"

Holden, because he doesn't like people clapping for him.

What do you think is the significance of Holden asking the cab driver to go hang out instead of calling someone he knows and, also, calling Faith instead of Jane?

Those people also do not know him, so if things go wrong then it is not that big of a deal. It is like a fresh start. (answers may vary)
