April HenryA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more. For select classroom titles, we also provide Teaching Guides with discussion and quiz questions to prompt student engagement.
Two central themes of the book are Turning a Disadvantage Into an Advantage and Change Inspired by Kindness and Diversity. Give one example of a text-to-self connection and one example of either a text-to-text or a text-to-world connection of an act of kindness that made someone’s life better. Describe the circumstances and explain how the people changed and who or what helped them.
Teaching Suggestion: You can use this video to review the three types of connections. Students may find making a text-to-world connection challenging. This History Channel story, “12 Times People Confronted a Crisis With Kindness,” could be a good asset to help them answer the question.
