Aww poor Ed

Zusak, Markus. I am the messenger. New York: Random House, 2002.

I'm doing the same book, so that makes the citing a lot easier!

Okay so my global issue that I'll ramble about is how people don't care enough about each other and don't think they can make a difference.

I think this book shows this problem wonderfully, especially in the end.

I mean the author pretty much made a character who isn't bad or anything but he isn't in any way different from most people.

Most of the time books will have characters who have powers and what not or are special in some way or have at least done something great. Not Ed, Ed was pretty much a loser.

BUT HE STILL DID STUFF!

And at the end of the book he was still Ed, just a better version of himself. He was an Ed who knew he wasn't worthless and that he could help people.

Wow that was cheesey, oh well!
