Imagine moving away from home, changing schools, and having a family that won’t even give attention when needed. Paul goes through all of this, and he is left to make decisions that will change his life forever. Three choices Paul goes through are, changing schools, tattling on Tangerine Middle School soccer players, and informing the police about Arthur and Erik’s wrong doings.

The choices made by Paul, and the consequences of those choices, affect the development of his character.
Throughout the book Tangerine there can be many morals or lessons taught. One Obvious theme is to always tell the truth. In the novel it shows many situations that characters told the truth and everything changed for the better. Paul tells the truth in the end of the novel and it shows how important it can be to tell the truth.
Choices A lot of people make choices every single day. When they wake up, they know that they will face different challenges/choices that have consequences. In Tangerine there are many different people who make choices Including Paul. Paul makes choices not to tell his parents about what he sees/hears about Erik.
“Hey Mars!” Imagine being called that every day. At least one time. Imagine being kicked off the soccer team because of your eyesight, which appears to be fine. Imagine having to deal with the death of a kid due to lightning.
What is courage? Courage is the ability to do something that might frighten you. Tangerine, by Edward Bloor, explores the life of a legally blind middle school boy who loves soccer named Paul. The choices to save people in the sinkhole, join the Tangerine soccer team, and stand up to Erik encouraged Paul to gain more confidence.
