Later the family tried out the dinner that Tita did. “On her the food seemed to act as an aphrodisiac, she began to feel an intense heat pulsing through her limbs”(Esquivel 51).

The Book Thief: Character Analysis I chose the main character Leisel Meminger in "The Book Thief" because she made so many changes throughout the story and I found her very interesting. This story was a biography that she wrote about herself. Her biography was picked up by Death who had it published after her death.

The reason I chose this item is because in the book, the main character Pattyn Von Stratten used a journal write down all her troubles because her librarian Ms. Rose told her it would be good for her.
Mair is not like most people who are living with MS; rather she uses humor to describe her condition. Other people may just sit around because they have Multiple Sclerosis, but Mair does not let the disease stop her. For example she says, “I am a superb, if messy cook” in paragraph 11 as she describes her daily routine to lighten the mood of the essay.
