Zia uses the Magic Dictionary (C. Scuro 13th edition) to erase words from the real world and make the idea and existence of them disappear.]]> 2023-05-24 14:36:07 UTC https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2603408491 593381 https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2603411596 The characters in Zia Erases the World are Zia, as the main character, with the secondary characters in the story being Zia's Mom, and Zia's Yiayia.

The Shadoom is a mental problem Zia faces in the story and happens when she is scared, has fear, or sadness. Zia tries to fight the Shadoom throughout the story by erasing negative words in the dictionary. ]]> 2023-05-24 14:40:02 UTC https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2603413709 593381 https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2603417518 The way Zia changes the lesson in the book is that when she tries using the dictionary it does not clear her problems of the Shadoom. Instead it only makes everything worse for her. This is why Zia destroys the dictionary near the end of the story and tries to clear the Shadoom herself using group therapy.]]> 2023-05-24 14:43:02 UTC https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2603417518 593381 https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2610862454 Later on in the story after Zia destroyed  the C. Scuro Dictionary, she realizes the shadoom is just another word for "depression" and a lot of other people experience the same thing as her. She takes a collage group and makes friends and is happy.]]> 2023-05-31 18:33:53 UTC https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2610862454 593381 https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2610867203 The Shadoom in the story has a lot of effect on Zia and makes Zia face a lot of problems. She doesn't know what causes the Shadoom throughout the story and does not know what to do about it. She experiences it in situations where she is apart and alone from her mom and has memories of times she does not like, like being at Sasha's birthday party. When it happens she feels like she is being consumed by the Shadoom & is unable to move.]]> 2023-05-31 18:39:00 UTC https://padlet.com/5926110/1dalrbek3o3uoe2j/wish/2610867203
