The stories are connected because they each show meaning and morals. The stories show emotions and how people overcome pain and the truth. They all show the identity that conor has deep inside of himself. The identity is shown by the meaning of each story

# data[].attributes.body
The stories show different morals with different problems. They each make conor see different perspectives about the pain that people will experience and how to get through it. They show different meaning within exposing the truth that Conor faces

# data[].attributes.body
The three stories that are told by the monster to Conor are all the same because of the meaning. The meaning of the stories was to show how pain and struggling unravels the truth. The stories were leading up to the consequence being the truth that conor had to face.

Throughout the text, the monster visits Conor at 12:07 to tell a story, acting as an allegory to Conor's need to overcome his struggles. If the monster cam at 12:07 and told me a story, the most pressing question I would have would most likely be surrounding 'When do you feel is the right moment to tell me a story? How do you feel is the right time to support my emotions?'

The three stories within 'A Monster Calls' are connected in the way that they teach and support Conor to overcome his personal struggles. Throughout the text, Conor is seen to be struggling internally with his mother's illness, his peers and himself as a person. As these stories are not told for the sake of being just a story, they educate Conor about his personal struggles in a more public way, shining a light on how his struggles are not experienced alone. The connection between the three stories highlights the morals that each story teaches Conor about his emotions, supporting him as he experiences grief and loss throughout the text.

While the three stories told within 'A Monster Calls' may be similar in the context of the morals that they educate, they are also different as they have a different way of telling these morals. It can also be noted the particular point in the text where the stories are told, as they seem to support Conor in a time where he is particularly struggling with something. For example, when Conor accepts the belief that his mother will be treated with a new medicine, his emotions inform him that he may be making the wrong decision believing solely on what he thinks rather than what is actually happening. This is when the second story is told, teaching Conor the real meaning of accepting the truth rather than depending on beliefs. Therefore, the three stories seem to be different due to the fact that they are told at different points in the story, much akin to the variations of Conor's emotional struggle as he deals with his problems throughout the text.

The three stories within 'A Monster Calls' are all linked to form a key message that allows Conor to feel the connection between his personal struggles and the lessons that the stories teach him. To illustrate this point, the stories told by the monster help to illustrate Conor's feeling of invisibility among his peers and how being 'seen' leads him to feel even more lonely- this is told through the story of 'The Invisible Man'. On another note, Conor also learns to overcome his grief through the lessons of telling the truth and living on actions, not beliefs. The first story told by the monster teaches Conor how he must accept the truth, the most important way he can overcome his grief, whilst the second story outlines how it is significantly important to live on actions rather than beliefs; giving up everything you believe in will deter you from acting upon it. Thus, the three stories told in 'A Monster Calls' highlight the personal struggles that Conor is dealing with, and it is through the morals taught through these stories that Conor is able to accept how he can deal with his struggles.

The three stories are connected as they all help Conor guide through his problems and they all have morals that Conor takes in and implements in his life of problems and misery. Conor slowly starts to resolve his problems and face the world.

# data[].attributes.body
The three stories are different as each story gives a different moral and helps Conor with each of the problems that he is facing.

# data[].attributes.body
The three stories are all linked to create a key moral that helps Conor face the problem he is facing at home and school. Conor learns important life lessons through storytelling to overcome his current challenges. One example of the story is invisibility. Conor learns about how to not stay invisible anymore at school and keep on getting bullied at school so the monster helped Conor realise that he can't stay low and invisibly and needs to be seen by everyone. Some other thing that the monster helped Conor realise is how to face the truth. This is told in the last story, and the monster slowly started talking to Conor about how to face reality and that it is alright to say what is inside your mind to others. This is when at the end of the book Conor says "I don't want you to go". All the stories are linked to create a bigger moral of overcoming life problems.

# data[].attributes.body
These three stories that the monster tells Connor are the same because they all link up to the problems that he is facing in reals life, for example being invisible, facing the truth, and the fact that if you face the truth all of your problems will be solved. The monster also tries to teach Connor that people are different from what they are or look like on the outside, for example the queen who had been framed for being a witch and killing the princes bride, but the prince was the undercover killer.

# data[].attributes.body
The three stories are different in a way that they all teach him a different thing each time, although they have the same purpose (to teach him about his real life problems). The first story teaches him of the importance of truth, and how he must face the truth of his own emotions and problems. The second story focuses on accepting change, reflecting how Conor must accept the change of his mother's passing before he can properly let go. The third story reflects Conor's bullying and isolation at school, with the allegory of an invisible man and what he must do to become visible again -- again focusing on accepting truth and change. Although these stories all reflect on Conor's grief, loss, and emotions, they all have a different purpose and focuses on a certain point of his life.

# data[].attributes.body
The three stories that the monster tells Conor are all told to show Conor's real life problems and issues in a different perspective, through stories acout something from the outside world. They all somehow relate to the problems and emotions Conor has towards losing his mother, as well as the difficulties he's facing in his life because of that. The stories always end in a way that Conor hadn't anticipated, showing him that the better solution to his problems may be something different from what he had been thinking. Conor thinks the monster has come to heal his mother, but he has come to tell the stories, indirectly healing or helping him, and helping him to learn to heal himself.

# data[].attributes.body
The main connection to this story is that they associate with Connor's current situation. This is shown especially in the third story where the monster talks about an invisible man, who wasn't invisible but was blatantly ignored, which was what is happening to Connor. Then the monster made people see the invisible man, like the monster made him see Conor.

# data[].attributes.body
These stories are different because, they all teach Connor different things and have different types of characters trying to portray the lesson of the story. In the first story Connor is being taught that some people need to lie to  themselves and this is because, his mum had recently gone to hospital for her illness and he has been lying to himself that she will be ok and that the medicine will make her feel better. In the second story Connor is being taught that belief is half of the cure to get better, and this is because his mums illness had gotten worse and will continue to do so, which means that he needs to believe that the medicine that she is being given will make her feel better. Finally in the last story he is being taught that if he wants to be seen, he needs to make people see him , and this is because his mum is slowly passing away so she will not be in his life to comfort him, which means that he needs for people to see him and to make friends in the lonely and sad world he lives in.

These stories are connected because the all teach Connor life lessons and teach him how to face problems that he is facing in real life. For example Connor has been wanting his mum to die and for his mental pain and agony to go away, but he knows that this is a very bad thought and acts in a positive way about his mum living . In the story the monster tells Connor "sometimes people need to lie to themselves most of all. In the second story the monster teaches him that belief in medicine is half the cure, and that he should believe that his mum is going to be cured by the medicine, so it will get rid of half his worries. In the third story the monster teaches Connor that he is the invisible man, and that if he doesn't want to be invisible he needs to make people see him.

Some differences between the three stories are the plot and what happened to the characters. The plot of the story is different so that the monster can show through different examples where actions matter and words don't. They also make Connor think about what his actions are and how they affect other people.

# data[].attributes.body
These three stories all teach Connor the idea of human beings who can be different from what they were known for or what other people think about them. For example, the apothecary from the second story may sound evil, but he was a healer and the parson may seem kind, but his thinking was wrong, and refused to let the apothecary have the yew tree. This was even written in the last paragraph when the monster explains why he told Connor those stories.
