He then admits to his friend in chapter 3 that he is going to take advantage of the system, which he thinks of as “a special-education scam”. This is because he believes that special education students have it easy and don’t have to put in much effort to be successful in school. Towards the middle of the story, he starts to feel guilty about what he is doing and the assumptions he has made about special educational kids. An example of this is in chapter 10 when Elizabeth is offended by Edward and explains to him “being in special education doesn’t mean you’re not smart”. At the end of the story, Edward understands what it takes to achieve success and he also has a better understanding and respect for people with learning disabilities.

In the movie Big Fish there is a very important quote about how humans relate to each other. This quote is,”Most things you consider evil or wicked are simply lonely and lacking social niceties.” This quote is used to describe Amos after he turned into a werewolf, in reality Amos is not a werewolf but it is representing that he is a lone wolf and lacks social niceties. People or things that are lonely and lack social niceties are misunderstood, people do not know how to react to something they are not used to. Using Amos as an example he does not know what is wrong or right.
He stays true to himself by saving the girl in the river from a snake. The author notes that Edward “risked his own life to do it” pg. 26 when speaking of Edward’s rescue of the girl. This exemplification shows an extreme act of courage. Edward also displays bravery when he steals the eye from the college students to return to the old lady. Even though the men said that they would “take one of his eyes as recompense” pg 83 if he failed to return the eye, Edward boldly carries out this task.
Edward Bloom in Daniel Wallace’s novel, Big Fish, he is portrayed as a very peculiar character with many different characteristics. Bloom’s son, William, is telling the story for his father’s adventures and about the people; he meets along the way. He tells his son all the vicissitudes about his life mixed in with a few exaggerations. All while Bloom is on his death bed with his son by his side. Many people that Bloom meets on his adventures would each describe him a little differently.
When Edward first entered the town, he quickly gained a popular reputation because of his unusual charms that considerably differ from the norms of society. Rather than the people fearing Edward, their curiosity made them more fascinated in change. The housewives lacked a sense of entertainment and amusement since they followed the conformity of the town by staying home all day while the husbands went to work. When Edward arrived, he provides them with pleasure by artistically trimming their hedges, dogs and hair which further enhances his uniqueness. He is admired for his hedge trimming and hair cutting skills which contributed to the citizens seeking to find their own individuality.
“Kept in a small fish bowl, the goldfish will remain small, taken out the fish will grow double, triple, or quadruple its size.” This metaphor was read in an encyclopedia by Edward in Big Fish. The metaphor is directly linked to the movie by showing that Edwards ambition was too great for the small town of Ashton and he had to leave to grow. Although this can be linked to the real world, if you are in a small confined city your ambition, knowledge, and bonds do not have room to grow. Furthermore if you leave the confinements you can increase your ambition by going new places, your knowledge by learning new things you could not on your previous location, and your bond by strengthening old ones and forming new one.
What Edward realized does not matter. What matters is the fact that realizing who you are and what you want to do makes the pain of puberty go away.
