Can you please tell me what the feeling for Chapter 1 is, then can you tell me the mood and tone that makes this feeling, Then tell me why it feels like this, and why it has this mood and tone. I need this so I can write it down.

Mr. Popper is a house painter living in Stillwater. He often strays from his work to fantasize about exotic locations and adventures. He has never been outside of Stillwater, and though he has a good job and a good wife with two children, Bill and Janie, he longs for something more. He particularly loves reading and watching movies about the Arctic and Antarctica. Winter is coming, and that means the season for house painting is over. Mr. Popper has just ended his last job, and returns home covered in paint. Mr. Popper does not look forward to a long, listless winter with little to do but sit around the house. He volunteers to remodel the bathroom, but Mrs. Popper rejects the offer, because Mr. Popper had already painted the bathroom four times previously. For her part, Mrs. Popper worries about the lack of income, and she resolves to get by by having beans for dinner every day, and eschewing roast beef and ice cream.

Chapter One sets the scene and provides necessary exposition. Mr. Popper is a dreamer who is constantly fantasizing about visiting the polar regions. He is faced instead with a dreary, boring winter at home with nothing to do, and with nothing but beans to eat for dinner. There is immediately a conflict between what Mr. Popper desires, and what he has.
