Sarah's+Author's+Purpose+and+Point+of+View

The author who wrote this book wanted you to think that in some people who poses great wisdom can believe that past the colour of your skin everyone is equal and the same.

1. Do you believe that for Timothy to have wisdom he had to be old? 2. Why have you made Phillip's dad such a fence sitter? 3. Would the story have been as powerful if it were set in the modern day? 4. Why at the end of the story did you make Phillip regain his sight? 5. Would you ever have make another story that follows Phillip's life?
