n
orphaned baby named Quasimodo, which means "half-formed," is found by Frollo, who hides him in the bell tower of
Notre Dame, the highest point in all of Paris. There Quasimodo grows into a young man, whose job is to ring the
cathedral's giant bells. He has never seen the world, and the world has never seen him.
Quasimodo's only friends are the stone gargoyles and the birds who live with him in the tower.
One day, he takes a baby bird in his strong hands. "Will today be the day?" he asks the bird hopefully. "Are you
ready to fly?" The bird flies! Quasimodo waves goodbye with an ache in his heart. He wants to be free like the
bird ...
Quasi is a bit like a child who just wants to go to the party but is having a real problem with
his parents. Clearly, he's someone who's had a very limited experience of life. And even though he's had to deal
with lots of abuse, he has an indomitable spirit and refuses to be put down.
