Mice and Men pg 2 and 3

One man was small dark, slim, quick, and had very strong features. The other man was big, shapeless of face, and had wide sloping soldiers. Steinbeck describes them before introducing their personalities because their features describes how they act and what they do. The small guy is quick and excited as his actual personality is. It is a strong way of introducing the characters and a way to put an image of them in your head.
