War Horse Homework 1:
- In this book, I learn about the good things in the world, like love and friendship, the terribleness of war ,like sadness and death. I also recognize the happiness when Joey and Albert find each other.

Great work Robert!
This is a great discussion and you have clearly got across what lessons you take away from the book. As you state, the book explores both the positive and negative aspects of our world.
Something else you could think about is what the book teaches us about sympathy and its importance.

Lovely work, Liya!
Chance is definitely very important in the story. As you state, many occasions (such as the ones you mention) appear to only happen because of chance.
Something else to think about is how Stanley questions whether the curse ever even existed; how does this complicate the way we think about chance?

You can see more details in first people but couldn’t see the character’s feelings.

It won’t tell specifically about how does august begins to get used to the school and how hard is that. Because I think no one can know what august think about the school and how he encourages him and his feeling.
