Catching Your Dreams I the chose the novel "Unstoppable" for my book report. It was written by Austin Murphy, also co-author Anthony Robles. One of these reasons why I chose this book is because I found it giving me motivation and really inspirational. Another reason the book is so impactful is due to the part that the main character only has one leg. The most important conflict would defiently be living with one leg. I mean no one really understands what it limits you untill your in that situation. I give injured people so much respect knowing what they go through and some what look up to them because they are surving in a world where many give up. " Every soul comes to earth with a leg or two at birth must wrestle is opponents knowning its not what it is, but what we can see that measures worth." This quote shows one thing that he loves and takes pride in. Anthony Robles has faced many obsticles through his young life and in my opinion he has by far succeced. The most important conflict that I believe is when Anthony went to the NCAA Division 1 championships and took it home. A motivational quote would be "you can be unstoppable" quoted from Mr.Robles.

The theme of the Novel would defiently have to be discovery. The reason why I chose this specific theme is because Anthony Robles talks about conquering the unknown. Also because Anthony discovers that he has great strength and found something that he loves. The reason why I believe that the Novel has been written is to motivate people and show them that anyone can reach there dreams. For the Novel Unstoppable the main setting would one hundred percent be the wrestling mat. I can some what relate to Anthony because I went through what he did and the daily. I was no wear close to how good

    Our experiences shape our understanding of our strengths and weaknesses. Conflict has the potential to lead an individual to self-discovery of an intellectual, emotional or spiritual level. It has the ability to provoke an understanding of an individuals strengths and weaknesses through its confronting and proactive nature which can lead us to new values, stimulate new ideas, and enable us to speculate about future possibilities. The consequences of conflict can offer new understandings and renewed perceptions of our self and others. A comparative study of Louis Nowra’s Cosi and Kayne West’s Jesus Walks can offer an increased understanding of the ideas of conflict and their power to provoke an understanding of an individual’s strengths and…

    A theme that would describe the book is Censorship, or restriction. Censorship would be a good theme to describe the book because the story is about books being banned in the future because those who read books will have a higher intellect than others. They want to put a restriction to people reading books because it would mean that one person will be higher than the other just because he or she has read more books than any other human on this Earth. It would also mean that everyone isn’t equal because of books.…

    The theme is defined as a main idea or an underlying meaning of a literary work that may be stated directly or indirectly. In the first part of the novel “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi” by Rudyard Kipling, the primary topic is courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear. The alternate topic is love triumphs over all. The primary reason for courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear is due to Rikki wasn’t scared for a long time when he saw Nag.

    Main Theme: I believe the theme of this novel is Dreams. Santiago’s dream of a treasure in Egypt reveals to him his Personal Legend and sets the entire plot of the Alchemist into motion. Whether or not an individual believes in dreams creates a dividing line between the “enlightened” and “unenlightened” characters in the novel. It is a mixture of ever character 's dreams that play a different scene.…
