They tried to show him to forgive and not to be upset and let everything go and forgive everyone and let everything go. Then they find the little girl and they have a ceremony to buried her.
The movie is totally different than the book and the book is very complicated to understand and they took stuff out of the book and put stuff in the movie that wasn’t in the book because the movie was going to be too long. I saw the movie first and then read the book but it would been easier to watch the movie and not read the book because the book is too complicated to read.

I have read numerous different books in my Contemporary Literature class; I have chosen to compare and contrast The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls and The Perks of Being A Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.
