In class, we have been reading a book together with another Gr. 7/8 class in Snow Lake, Manitoba via Skype. The book we have been reading is called Half Brother, by Kenneth Oppel. It is about a family that adopts a chimp as part of a science project for the father. Recently, we have been asked to write a connection relating to one of the many themes of the book, and this is mine.
In the book, Half Brother, Ben finds it a little difficult to change lifestyles, because of Zan, and it’s hard for him. But he still perseveres and keeps on going without complaining. This reminds me of when I had to write my speech. It was hard to get everything done, but I persevered and went through. The message is to never give up through a difficult period of time.
