Please describe in your own words and provide examples from the text. en-us 2017-10-27 13:54:05 UTC 2017-10-27 14:40:18 UTC hello@padlet.com mckonemolly https://padlet.com/mckonemolly/mfcdwoavh2jr/wish/201217788 The main idea of The Year of Billy Miller is that he really comes to know himself. Billy begins the story by being seemingly worried all the time. For example, at the beginning Billy is meaning to make fun of his classmate Emma but he accidentally makes fun of his teacher Ms. Silver and then does everything he can to apologize. But then by the end he is confident and aware of who he is as a person because he stops worrying about what others will think. ]]> 2017-10-27 14:33:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mckonemolly/mfcdwoavh2jr/wish/201217788 mckonemolly https://padlet.com/mckonemolly/mfcdwoavh2jr/wish/201220981 I think one of the main idea from The Year of Billy Miller is that school and life can be challenging, but if we work hard and believe in ourselves, we can be successful. In the book, Billy was very nervous to read his poem that he wrote for his mother. He kept telling himself he could not do it, but then in the end he found his confidence and realized he could. ]]> 2017-10-27 14:40:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mckonemolly/mfcdwoavh2jr/wish/201220981
