The theme of a novel is a meaning about life that is present in the story. Jerry Spinelli’s book Stargirl consists of multiple designs as they concern relationships when it comes to. It’s about what happens when an exceptional individual who will not care what others consider her goes in a close-minded environment. The main theme of this history is Identity and Conformity. The students for Mica Area High School are most often following a pattern of patterns where everyone understands what they are supposed to do, without one varies too far from that norm. All are the same and are also suspicious of anyone who is different. In that case Stargirl starts off school. The girl with surprisingly exclusive and innovative. she’s usually herself and doesn’t attention what other folks think about her. She is and so different than others that people will be obsessed with her. All they do is discuss her. For a time, they try to act like her then most people are upset by her actions and everyone shuns her.
I, personally, enjoyed the book. It can be thought-provoking and Stargirls journey is going to educate teens beneficial life lessons. It also does a great job with the aid of figurative vocabulary. Like foreshadowing, metaphors, and similes. “She was flexible light, the lady shone around every part of my day. The lady taught me to indulge. She trained me to wonder. Your woman taught myself to laugh”. (Leo, 107). The use of the radical language built the publication more enjoyable and easier for us to correspond with the story. This guide thought various teens an important life lessons. But it began of too slow and so it absolutely was easy to weary.
