Basketball court represents community and togetherness..."a strange patch of neutral ground, a meeting place for every element of a neighborhood's young men" (p. 44). This a is place of importance to Wes both literally and figuratively for these reasons.

question marks are a symbol of mystery or questionable situations.

The Martian

2023-10-10 13:15:14 UTC

Though not presented in exactly the way as symbols in other books, the best thing I could find that could be interpreted as a symbol is water, which is needed to moisten dirt to grow crops on Mars, so in a way one could say it symbolizes in the book a way to continue and possibly get back to Earth. As for added meaning, there isn't much other than how it is essential to survive, and being not as much of a symbol, this is all I thought of.

Enrique's Journey-Freight Trains

2023-10-10 14:01:10 UTC

In Enrique's Journey the freight trains symbolize deliverance and salvation to Enrique and other migrants who are hoping to achieve better lives in the United States and they take these trains in order to achieve their hopes.

Lebron INC.

2023-10-10 14:29:36 UTC

This is Lebron James and he is important to the book because he is the main character

One Of Us is Lying

2023-10-10 15:10:46 UTC

One symbolism I caught is when Addy breaks up with her toxic boyfriend, she decides to cut her hair. The hair symbolizes her obsession with him, and with it gone, her freedom to do what she wants. She becomes her own person, instead of hiding behind her hair and pretending to be someone else.

The halls are used as a transition of the relationship of two of the characters

Let the lanterns guide you home

2023-10-10 20:06:51 UTC

Light often symbolises freedom and the character started in a very bad situation.

Prisoner B-3087

2023-10-10 20:07:18 UTC

One of the main symbols in my book is rain. This is because the main character is a Jewish boy during world war 2 and it takes place in the concentration camps. The rain shows how depressing and sad this time in history was.

We were lairs

2023-10-10 20:08:38 UTC

Wound/Cuts The main character says that Gat wounded her when all he did was say stuff. It represents how gats wounds hurt the main character and she really is hurt about it. It helps us understand that this really did mean something to the main character.

Artificial condition

2023-10-10 20:10:25 UTC

ART is a character in this book and whenever they appear its always to help the protagonist change and find something new so Art is used as finding something new

Animal Farm

2023-10-10 22:05:15 UTC

In Animal Farm the characters are meant to reflect the Russian revolution and the soviet union. Snowball represents Leon Trotsky, Napoleon represents Josef Stalin and the other animals represent the working class Russians. It adds to the meaning since Animal Farm is meant to reflect communism and the problems with it

The Lord of The Rings

2023-10-11 05:36:07 UTC

Whenever there is a song written in, it is usually about the current events and what's happening in the story. These songs only appear in moments where Frodo and his friends need encouragement for example when Frodo's group was getting tired while walking, they began to sing a song about traveling on and not knowing what lies ahead but staying persistent nonetheless.

The Housemaid's Secret

2023-10-11 15:27:35 UTC

Money is a symbol in my book. It seems to represent most of the characters in the book. The main character is poor and works for rich people to earn money. The wife in the book kills plans to kill her husband for his money and succeeds.

the war within these walls

2023-10-11 15:31:12 UTC

In the book the main character sees a gorgeous bird sitting on the wall dividing the city. This bird is brought up multiple times in the book when the boy is talking about how he wants to be free like the bird, and how soon he too will be able to "fly away."

One Of Us Is Lying

jjbrown51 — 2023-10-12 15:41:58 UTC

In the book everyone wears black to simon's funeral. The color black can symbolize lots of things, but wearing black or dark colors to funerals symbolize the end of life.

Other words for home

2023-10-12 18:29:04 UTC

This symbolizes a new being away from home a new state country city. A new being for her mom and her. people waiting for her, her family greeting them to welcome them that they are here.and a better live.

M.C.

The Silent Patient

2023-10-12 19:59:01 UTC

Silence is used a lot as a symbol in this book to represent the feeling to describe many situations/thoughts of the characters in the book and how it can mean so many things without actually saying anything at all.

The poet

2023-10-16 13:50:02 UTC

her poems represents how shes feeling

we were liars

2023-10-16 15:18:26 UTC

I think one object that has important significance to the book is the family dock on the island because it symbolizes a new beginning and the storys start by coming onto this Island

Panic by Lauren Oliver

2023-10-26 21:32:02 UTC

The closet thing I could find to a symbol in the book this far was the game Panic. It seems to represent new beginnings, opportunities, and risks. The whole book revolves around this game since the main characters are participating in it. For the MC, Panic represents a way out of that small town she resides in.

this photo represents two people living in the same world but having the same names and also living different lives

The emotional poet

2023-11-02 02:06:51 UTC

her poems are very strong and emotional they mainly repersent herself or how shes feeling

Wonder

2023-11-13 16:35:40 UTC

A symbol i caught is when the narrator gives out that he was born with something that makes him different. This book represents the " don't judge a book by it's cover " fraze. This adds meaning to the text because everyone bullied the boy because of the way his face features look not knowing it was a condition he was born with.

2024-01-26 04:27:50 UTC

This is a symbol in The Hate U Give, it indicates how Khalil got murdered over a hairbrush, and the racist police thought he had a weapon when he had his hairbrush. It adds meaning because this book is about how a family goes through a horrifying story with the police.
