my name's rebecca. i doubt you're even mildly interested in the irrelevant aspects of my life, so i'll get to the point. i'm not a professional psychologist nor do i pretend to be, yet i'll try to give you advice based on the common sense that, unlike many others on here, i own ;]
advice
what are some movies/books where people struggle for money, homes, foods etc.
i am writing an essay about how we take advantage of things we have, and i need examples from literature.
thanks a bunchh! help is appreciated
Out of the Dust, by Karen Hesse, takes place during the Great Depression. It's not a great big novel, but its quantity, not quality that counts :). I haven't read it in a while, but I remember it being really touching and powerful. This family goes through so much and it really makes you think about how good your life is compared to these hardships.
