If there were to be no violence in the story I don’t think that it would have a very good plot to go on, it would probably be a fall through book.

I do agree with this, from personal experience my mom tried to make me become somebody I wasn’t and no matter how hard she tried it didn’t work. I became my own individual and that is how it should be with every kid, they should be allowed to grow up in their own way.

6.) The idea of bravery and courage comes into play with how the characters act and what they do for the others in the novel. I consider Hassan and Sohrab brave and courageous. This does vary between characters. The most courageous character is Sohrab because he never asked to be put through what he was put through and he tried his hardest at such a young age and went through so much and came out on the other side stronger. ]]> 2019-04-22 12:17:08 UTC https://padlet.com/rasmusseng1/ajke34lv0zfb/wish/353026705
