Dynamic Change in the Main Character

In my independent reading book The Last Apprentice, Thomas Wards the main character in the book changed from being a cowardice person into someone who is brave. Here is a quote in the book before he changed, "You, an apprentice to a spook! How can you do a job like that when you still can't even sleep without a candle?"(Page 8) Now here's a quote after he changed, "You see, rather than being filled with fear, i was all ice and fire, a full hot anger ready to explode."(Page 311)

The Last Apprentice

The Main character Tom is an apprentice of the Spook. To be an apprentice you have to be the seventh son of the seventh son. In the future I think that Tom will face many problems because being a Spook deals with supernatural things like boggarts, ghast, and witches.

Connection

My independent reading book is The Last Apprentice Revenge of The Witch. My book connects to Harry Potter. They are both similar because the main characters are kind of the same. This is a quote from my book "We're the seventh sons of seventh sons, and we have a gift of seeing things that others can't. But the gift can sometimes be a curse." In Harry Potter there is something similar to this, Harry has a scar on his head and it's a curse sometimes but it can be helpful to him.

Tsubasa(Topic: A,B and C)

I only have one chapter of the book, but i finished the whole series. The genres of the book is Fantasy,Romance. Basically the story is about two lovers, Syaoran and Sakura. Sakura loses her memories which have been scattered throughout different worlds and Syaoran and his companions are searching for them. I would recommend it to people who like that kind of stuff. The book has a deep meaning to it and it is very creative. Some of the favorite parts of the series was how the main character Syaoran acted. I liked most of his decisions because they were all for his lover Sakura, but i also think that's also one of the manga's weaknesses, how the charcters acted. They would sacrifice their lives for the people they love, but don't care what happen to themselves. I think that's only self satisfactory because if you die for the person you love, they won't think "Yay I'm alive," they'll just be sad because you aren't there with them. In the end of the manga series Syaoran and Sakura found the truth about themselves and confessed there love for each other and then Syaoran then decided to travel to other worlds leaving Sakura behind. His last words were "I'll be back for you, i promise." or something close to that.

Theme

A theme is an idea or topic that a teacher and learners can explore in many different ways. A teaching theme is often based on the learners' culture, environment or shared experiences.I like the theme because it teaches you a lesson that can influence your life. You see them poems and throughout life.
