They walk ten miles to school every single day. And it also talks about how Shan also was in love with Grace at a point in time, plus their initials are carved on a tree. Jo-Anne was the

As a symbol in the novel, I choose “The Red Sweater and Club. This is one of the first symbols we see in the book. The man with the red sweater, who treated buck and the other dogs poorly, and beats them with his club. We do not know him but he is described by what he is wearing. Judging by his character he is a very cruel and wicked man. In my opinion, in the novel, the red sweater symbolizes hatred, anger, cruelty, rage, or even a person who you will fear to approach just by looking at him because

or produce films about the Holocaust. So which one had the greatest impact on me? A story told from the viewpoint of a little girl at a time of war, or a moving film portraying their experiences underground. The book "The Girl in the Green Sweater" was, in my opinion, a much more effective method of understanding what the Jews in Lvov went through during the Second World War. While the movie is excellent, it doesn't go into as much detail as the book. The author is the young girl from the

In chapter 10 of The Blue Sweater, this was written by Jacqueline Novogratz, the one thing that captivated me was Honorata’s endurance. Novogratz narrates Honorata was a tutis. When the war began, Honorata and her husband and their children left their home and moved to stay with her twin sister called Anuziata in Nyamirambo. During the war, one solider came to Anuziata’s home and ordered them to come out of the house. The men were asked to stand at the left and the women and

In chapter 5 of The Blue Sweater, which was written by Jacqueline Novogratz, Jacqueline was a good listener who drew my attention. Novogratz explains that the only way to create a good business was to listen to the people who work with you. Jacqueline was ready to learn from the Rwandan women by listening to whatever thing they had to say. “On the other, I began to understand that I could have listened better, for listening is not just having the patience to wait, it is also learning how

I have chosen topic 3. Compare and contrast Grace and Jo-Anne. In the short story “The Slip-over Sweater” by Jesse Stuart, the main character Shan is also the narrator. That means we see everything through his eyes, including the two most important girls in his life, Grace and Jo-Anne. Shan reveals he used to be in love with Grace when they were younger.

thinks that an "ugly sweater" sitting in the coatroom, belonged to Rachel. As a result, she gave Rachel the red sweater, ignoring the young girl. I believe that Mrs. Price had a reason for being rude to Rachel. First, Rachel didn't stand up for herself when accusations arose. Also, Mrs. Price was tired of having the red sweater sit in her coatroom. Lastly, Mrs. Price had to teach, so she ignored Rachel. To begin, when Rachel was accused of being the owner of the red, ugly sweater, she didn't really

named Rachel gets accused of owning the ugly sweater that's been sitting in the coat area for a long time. It shows how the sweater makes Rachel uncomfortable and physically pains her to put it in.

One literary device used in simile is when she explains how awful the sweater is “I put one arm through one sleeve of the sweater that smells like cottage cheese”. Cottage cheese
