Character Growth In 'The Kite Runner'

Did you know that The Kite Runner was published three years before Mister Pip? The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini had a better ending than, the one written by Lloyd Jones, Mister Pip. With the character growth, unity, symbols and resolution we can identify and explain the main support in a great ending.

Character growth is crucial to readers after all, what’s a book without progress? The Kite Runner and Mister Pip both had a great deal of character growth, especially the main characters: Amir and Matilda.

The symbol of color is used throughout the book, one quote I think sums everything up is: “Once more we saw what a strange fish had washed up on our shore”. Mr. Watts was the only white man on the village, and that resembled power and wealth to the others; especially as he was the teacher. The symbols and themes were used effectively in both books, and provided a better
