Phoebe In Walk Two Moon

In the book Walk Two Moons, I chose the character Phoebe to represent my geometric shape. Phoebe in the book is very stubborn and stuck on not accepting Sal’s opinion. This event happens when Sal disagrees that her mom left and will not be coming back. Phoebe gets upset to hear that because then she says that her mother was kidnapped. In the book, it says, “My mother didn’t ‘take off’. Someone kidnapped her. She is undergoing tremendous sacrifice” (Creech 154). I think this quote explains Phoebe’s ornery. She is protecting her mother in the book and coming up with a reason that her mother did not leave purposely. It also shows how Phoebe does not listen or accept Sal’s thoughts. In this part of the boom, Phoebe got upset due to Sal’s comment.
