Willy Vs Jonah

"War Comes to Willy"” and “Found” are just alike, why? Because they share a same theme, which is Survival. By the covers of the books and the names and time periods are different but they are alike once you read. The two books take part in a theme that represent an overall story. The two main character are the part of the whole theme. There’s Willy Freeman, who is a black slave during war. And Jonah who is adopted and in a different time period.

They seem completely different from one another but they have one thing in common. Both of them are young teenagers. They both are o their own and figuring out how to contact their parents or find them. The two books both have a scene in a part when they find out their parents are missing. Willy is trying to travel to New York to find her mother and Jonah is going back in time to find out what happened to his parents, because they were spies. So one point or another they are about the same age and trying to find someone they love.

Another reason how the books are alike are how in each story something is going to hold them back, something powerful or controlling. They both have to fight for what they want. Like for an example is Willy was on a British ship and she got caught and they were holding her back. And with Jonah he had problems with the government. They each had a sticky situation to go past of on their gurney.

Overall they are different based on the main idea of the book. Willy is a black slave trying to get to her mother back in the 1700s and Jonah is going back in time for answers to his questions.  Plus Willy is pretending to be a boy the whole time. They are clearly different but have a same problem to find someone.

In conclusion my points of both characters are true. They are only alike based on the problem of the story being told. As you read you would figure out that each of them may take place completely different form the setting and problem, but they are just two young teenagers looking for their parents. Whether it’s in the history or today. They share some common fact. I hope you can understand from my point of as I wrote, that they share something compared to each other.

The Willy Freeman.

The authors note form my point of me is how Willy Freeman is a black slave in the book. Willy is the narrator in this fantastic tale. She is explaining everything from the start of her day about how her normal life is as a slave with her mother and father, but she knows her father has to fight in the war. But Willy is explain everything she is feeling and going through. Willy has been through a lot.       

            Willy was a free slave but, she has been through a lot of a girl, she watched her own dad die and when she came home her mother was no where to be found and she knew she was taken to New York.  She has been through a lot from my point as I read she would talk about everything even the littlest details

It was as if you were in her mind, the experience she was going through alone and scared, fighting for what she wanted. From my eyes as I read, she was going through all this pain but still never gave up on her or her mother, even if it was miles and miles away. Willy was strong to jump on British ship and say she was a boy but then said she really was a girl she went on all these adventures. From as what I read I could tell how she felt or what she was going through and it changed my mind, because at first I thought none of these things would come to happen.
