Weekend by Christopher Pike (1986, Paperback, Reprint)The book Weekend  by Christopher Pike  has a effect on me. The effect this book has on me happens to be making me wanna learn about the mexican culture more and be more peaceful and gentle and quiet like the wise man in the story. As I continue to read this book it becomes more intersting viewing the different characters. Sol a Mexican guy who is a cholo and loves trouble. Robin a peaceful young girl who happenes to be sick. A Latin Indian man who is peaceful an dloving also quiet and wise. Then there is Kerry a girl who has to get what she wants when she wants it. I looked and viewed all these different people and tried to think about how alot more people like the Latin Indian man more then anybody else in the book.This is the effect the book has on me.

Title: The Visitor

Identify a theme in your IRB. Describe events in your book that support this theme. (Highlight statement,proper nouns or numbers,and conclusion.)

My story The Visitor has a theme involved in it. The theme in my story is figuring out how Mary Weist a depressed,19 year old,beauitful girl and her dead boyfriend Jerry. She has found the mysterious of her dreams and visions. She was a Egyptian goddess in her past life but she was reincarnated. She never really figures out what the death of her boyfriend has todo with her or anything else thats going on. My conclusion for the theme of this story is her trying to figure out her history of her past life and why she is seeing these things.
