Jenkins puts the reader 'in medias res' so the reader finds themselves right in the middle of a situation and is immediately drawn into the story's plot. Margaret is a school age girl relocated from large city to remote village in Scottish Highlands due to the danger of war. When Margaret and her fellow school mates are sent away to the meadows to pick flowers, she decides to play her own game and runs away. She feels upset and isolated, and ignores all of the warning signs on her path moving straight to the forbidden shore. There Margaret discovers dead airmen laying on the beach.

Her stepmother dumps a bowlful of lentils in the ashes and says that she will be allowed to go if she can pick up the lentils from the ashes in two hours. Ashputtle asks two doves to help her pick up the lentils. They help her, but once she is done, the stepmother again throws lentils in the ashes. (629).
They shared their kill, because Gale had a large family to fend for as well. In turn, Gale taught Katniss how to set snares and traps. She used these skills to provide fresh meat and nutritious plants for her mother and sister, and sold a portion to have money for other supplies. Without Katniss, the family would starve to death, because her mother was too depressed, from her husband’s death, to work and her sister was too young and delicate to participate in gathering food. 24 tributes are thrown into an arena and they are forced to kill or be killed.
As a young lady growing up, “Rogers was raised to believe that football and baseball were the province of Neanderthal types who didn’t even know the difference between Carl Jung and Carlos Castaneda” (530). Sports were never on at their house. Therefore, Rogers social status suffered because when people would converse about football or softball, she pretended to know what was going on. She was finally introduced to football when she played the clarinet for her schools pep band because she had to play at every home game. But even then, she never knew what was going on.
Telling the short stories and memories she has from her childhood really gives the reader a strong visual of exactly how deep the conflict was and the way of life it was for her. The image she creates when she says “I did not plaster the family vehicle with National Rifle Association stickers, and the hunter’s orange was never my color.” (Vowell p172) in paragraph one, shows she really does not support any type of firearms organization. She tells this story so well from a narration mode that you could almost see yourself in her shoes. Especially when she states “I had to remove revolvers out of my way to make room for a bowl of Rice Krispies on the kitchen table.” (Vowell p172) Even with her conflict between her and guns she still keeps her opinions about them and decides to stay determined about her political views on firearms. For a teenage girl this is pretty impressive.
Shell decided to let her find something to do outdoors instead of assigning her a task. At the beginning Joanna threw the typical tantrum and out of defiance, went outside barefoot. Shell stared at her from the window as Joanna twisted on the swing and spun like a tornado, her attention was quickly switched, she proceeds to climbing the monkey bars and begins to spy on the neighbor until a squirrel caught her eye and she watched it like a hawk, she concluded her play time by drowning her stuffed armadillo and bringing it back to life. Shell then concludes that “It seems to me that we’ve lost trust in our kids. We don’t believe that they can navigate the world, so we try to navigate it for them.” Shell then explains that it seems that kids are adjusting to this structured type of play, asking about rules before playing a game, steering themselves away from that spontaneous type of play.
