Second Guesing

Authors Note: In this piece Second Guessing I will be showing the theme of Jonah and a few other characters from the book Found

Jonah, the mail character in the book Found written by Margret Peterson Haddix grew up thinking he was a normal kid. Later to find out he was one of 36 kids from history that were brought to the 21 century from time travel. He does not believe this one bit and will not believe what everyone is telling him at all. So now he is on a mission to find out who brought him here and what this is all about. This is why I think the main theme in the book Found is determination.

I think that the main theme in Found is determination because Joanna will not stop until he meats his goal. An example of this is when Jonah says to his friend  Chip " I will do anything and everything to get to the bottler of this". This quote from Jonah clearly states the fact that he wants to meet his goal.

Another quote from the book is when Jonah says to Chip " We will get out of this cave. We will gather up everyone who wants to get out of here and break out." Jonah is one character who never gives up and will always have an idea on what to do to make sure he can succeed.

Another book with the theme determination is Divergent written by Veronica Wroth. Tris the main character in the book is a girl who is protesting and trying to stop the fighting between here people. Se is organizing secret meetings to solve some of the issues with her people. For a girl that is only 16 she is showing a big amount of courage and determination.

After some quotes from the book Found I strongly believe that the theme in the book is determination. In the end of the book Jonah meets his goal and he succeeds what he was trying to do all along.
