I am choosing to write my essay on The Butterfly Revolution. The story started off pretty boring, but then it got very interesting. the challenges and difficulties some of the kids went threw at the camp were some what serious.
A lot of the kids were scared and some didn't want to join the revolution with the rest of the kids. it's very difficult trying to stand up for yourself and what you believe in, especially when your standing alone. Everybody else is against you.
My favorite charater in The Butterfly Revolution is Winston. he was like your average guy. He didint believe in god and because of that it was alot of things he didnt want to do. Like say the pledge. But he cracked cause he was so soft and punkable. the only black person in the whole book. is the only person who stood up for himself and never gave in. Guess what happen to him? He died! So standing up is not always a good idea. when your out numbered. Thats why i like Winston.
i think that if your life is at stake then maybe you should follow the crowd. isolationg yourself from everybody esle isn't a good idea either. he (the black boy)should have been organizing a grop of anti-revoutionary troops. then when he got blamed for rape he would have had some one to back him up.
The book definitly made me never want to go to any bodys cam. Also I learned that before you make a decision make sure it is well thought out first. Then things are more likely to run smoothly.
