Significance
This book is important because it shows what someone else thinks of someone wierd. It shows what one personis doing to make the world a better place in her mind and some of it can do so but not enough people do it to be able to make much of a difference. For example she knows how good people feel when they find money on the ground so every once in a while she would drop coines on the ground for someone to find.
Perspective
The problem is that people didn't like star girl because she was different. Because this happened Leo had pushed her into being someone she was not. and thus she whent from star girl to suzan. Another angle of the story could be stargirls who doesn't seem to mind what others think of her and only does what is good for her friends family and every one else that she could help or make happy.
Evidence
The author is trying to make the point that it is good to be different. He shows us this by making stargirl who is different a very good person. She is always thinking of others. For example she sends Leo a porcupine necktie for his birthday for his collection. Stargirl represents "difference" and by making her character a good person the author is saying that being different is good.
Connection
I see myself as being more like the rest of the characters in the story. My friends and I are all "normal". We dress alike and act like everyone else.
Suppostion
If everyone in the world was "different" in the way that stargirl was different then no one would notice one person as standing out from the crowd.

The Sending of a Dragon Jane Yolen
Significance
I chose this piece because it was the sequel to the two pieces I read before. I enjoyed the first two and wanted to finish the story. This story like the others was simply for the entertainment of others.
Perspective
The author of this book was Jane Yolen. She has created many peaces of work obviously including the two previous books in the series Dragons Blood, and Hearts Blood. My bias was that because i liked the charichters i did not want them to loose so i felt good when good things happened to them, and sad when bad things happened to them.
Evidence
In this book Jakkin and Akki get lost in a winding of caves they are found by primitive cave people that comunicate the way dragons do. They meet a dragon that they name Auricle. Soon they figure out what happens to the female Dragons there and are dicusted because they are slatered then eaten in the most terrible way. they decide that they should save Aurilcle from this terrible fate and save themselves from the terrible people. Once they escaped they found Jakkins five young dragons and they are found by their old friendGolden.
Connection
This book connects only to the other books in the trilagy. This paticular book is very important because it was the end of the trilagy thus finishing the story.

Hearts Blood By Jane Yolen
Significance
This books overall purpose was to simply entertain others. This book is the sequel to a book I recently read. The reason I chose this peace was to finish the entertaining story that I had already started.
Perspective
The author of this book is Jane Yolen. the author speaks in third person like someone else was telling the story. The story was being told to the audience by Jane Yolen.
Evidence
Hearts Blood is the sequel to the book Dragons Blood. In the book a young boy named Jakkin, a new dragon master, gets tied into the politics of his world by helping a senator. What he ends up doing is pretending to be a rebel and finding his recent runaway crush. threw the book he turns from boy to man according to him but to others(his friends) he was a man all along. His whole mission comes to an end when other people from politics come and hunt them down and always at his side and trying to protect him was his loyal dragon Hearts Blood who protected him and his girlfriend to the death.
Connection
this book connects to the sequel of this book and the first book in the trilogy. This book connects to the other books because they are all the same story one after another they complete each other.
Supposition
Suppose I took dragons out of the story the whole story would change for example there would be no dragon farm dragon fights dragon eggs you would have to replace it with something like horses but then something else would change like the horse cant fly so how would the get up the very steep and slippery mountain so in the end Jakkin and his two friends would be found and get in trouble or die in the cold of dark after.
