Violet's Turning Point

352 Words2 Pages

My poem captures the essence of the book in a good way because it shows the most significant event in the story. This page is when the main character Violet essentially breaks because of her feed malfunctions. This is truly the turning point of the book and captures several important elements. I selected this page because it showed the actually break down of Violet and showed in depth what her feed was doing to her and the society as a whole. It relates to the book as a whole because it incorporates the most important elements of the feed, Violet’s turning point, and how the feed ultimately shapes their entire society. Some of the words that I selected included the word broken, Violet’s name, some of Violet’s thoughts and feelings about the

    I especially enjoyed the pictures throughout the book. The pictures are of Sara, and have captions relating to that part of the book that say what Sara is thinking. The pictures really added to the book allowing me to fully understand what life was like in New York during the 1920’s, and how Sara was feeling during different parts of her life. I especially liked the image used between page 166 and 167, it is a picture of her looking sad and hungry, with the caption, “ I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the food.” The pages around this image talk about how she didn’t have enough money for food at the time, this picture really enforces how hungry and desperate she

  • A Murder In Virginia By Suzanne Lebsock

    1040 Words  | 5 Pages

    Suzanne Lebsock did a good job writing this book. She used factual historical interpretation to tell you about the way life was in the late nineteenth century when it came to the way black and whites worked together, while still remaining to tell you a good story. Suzanne keeps the reader thinking about the story and not only thinking about the history behind. One way she does this is by making you know the characters in the story. For most of the characters she introduces she puts a little picture on the page and gives a description about them.

    In “haning fair” she 's all alone no ne by her side. Her mom isn 't there for her at all she only cares for herself, that 's what hurts her daughter more than anything.

She always manages to keep her head held i high though she learns to dance and be happy without anyone by her side. I feel like this poem was such a relatable one for me and many others who don 't have it the best.

    Reflection: Throughout the book, I enjoyed reading about how such a young girls life can be changed very quickly by one short moment. I liked learning about the different personalities of the friends Lucy made.

    In this journal I will be evaluating, visualizing, and connecting. I like this book because it separates the story extremely well. All three main characters are in different locations and different places in their lives. Because they are in different locations the chapters are separated by characters. When Demi’s relationship was broken, she went on a rage of spending money and partying.

  • The Secret Life Of Bees Reflection Essay

    983 Words  | 4 Pages

    It has so much combinations of wonderful characters, principles, moments, scenes, and words. One thing that I also liked about the story was the little facts that was mentioned about the bees. The bees actually played an important part of the book because almost all of the main characters and Lily’s situations can be compared to one of the bees who go and collect honeys. Bees also do work or do chores just like what humans do. My favorite part of the book is when it showed forgiveness at the end of the of the story when Lily and her father talked, and also when she stays at Tiburon with the Boatwrights family because she finally has mothers that will take care and love
