At the beginning of the novel, Cole Matthews is a vicious teenager who thinks he is superior to everyone, but is, in fact, hiding behind a shield of anger, the result of being brutally abused by his drunken father. Cole’s father, Mr. Matthews, drinks non stop until he becomes a monster, and then ruthlessly beats Cole up. When talking to Garvey, a proud, Tlingit indian, who is also his parole officer, Cole opens up about his father’s abuse saying, “‘You don’t know what it’s like being hit over and over until you’re so numb you don’t feel anything!” (Mikaelsen 28).
People at some point in their lives have been overly confident about a certain aspect. This confidence has either lead to something desirable or not so desirable.

The adage, “Loneliness does not have to come from the lacking of people around you, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to you,” is an influential aphorism because it is associated with overcoming obstacles and trying to communicate to those around us.

Nye both articulate the importance of transitioning our emotions by showing the main character or the speaker dealing with their emotions. While there are multiple themes discussed in these texts, it is forthright that both stories positively treat the theme of emotional healing, through the importance of hobbies we all enjoy.

Menwa Al-Mana Mrs.Feitosa English 10.2 11/16/2015 Rationale I chose to write a fairy-tale from Holden to Phoebe, and I specifically chose “The Boy Who Cried Wolf” because I felt as if I could express Holden’s feelings about phony characters. I also decided to show the relationship between Holden and his little sister Phoebe by having Holden swear multiple times, and have Phoebe cut him off.
