Parvana is brave. Brave: To have strength of mind and act firmly in the face of danger. So when she went to the jail with her mother to get her father. P42.
Connection: I watched a movie about standing up for people and being brave to protect people. It's meant to make you feel strong and kind. The movie reminded me when Parvana was being strong to help and make her family happy by getting food and money for her family. P72
Mrs. Weera is energetic: To be strong and fight through anything. She try's hard at pretty much everything she does To help Parvana's family to make it through the situation that they're stuck in (sadly.) P32
Quote:"Mrs. Weera was a physical education teacher. So she knows a lot about being athletic and trying really hard to be tough and strong. So to be smart where it really count the most. P100
Connection:I always love to be energetic and playing a ton of sports everyday. I'm also trying extremely hard always to try and keep up with my brother. To beat him and get stronger is what I want. Then I can beat him! So I want to pretty much destroy him in sports. Just like Mrs. Weera I am energetic.
Bossy: to think your better and smarter then everyone else. Nooria thinks that she is a lot better then Parvana in so many different way. She just thinks she's the best ever.
Connection: I'm am stuck with an older sister just like Parvana's but mine is ten times worse! My sister is always trying her hardest to annoy me and my brother while playing video games. She always like this and I bet she will stay this (bossy) forever.
