Could you instruct me the meaning of "shift from a project to a pesron"
of the following sentence in a novel.
(Bet says that she has found the dead body of her uncle, and Shelby got curious in this story. Both girls are 13 years old)
Shelby was looking at Bet with rounded eyes, as if her summer charity had
shifted from a project to a person."You're the one who found him?" she (
Shelby)asked.
