Compare And Contrast Hotel On The Corner Of Bitter And Sweet

In the novel Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, Henry is forced to watch Keiko leave. Henry tries to help as much as he can by bringing stuff into the camp for Keiko, and her family. Henry does all of this for what Sheldon calls a "higher power". That power is love, and when Keiko has to leave it makes Henry so sad and he lets her go. A mistake in my opinion. Henry should have kissed her goodbye. But Henry did not, and after Keiko left Henry felt terrible and knew that he messed up. Sheldon also knew that Henry messed up and said that they should go to the new camp to say goodbye. Sheldon does what should have bean done right away. But being 12 Henry did it know, but now he is 13 a adult in his family's eyes. So Henry heads off to say
goodby the right way. I think that Henry should have kissed her goodbye right away. I also think that Keiko wanted a kiss goodbye as well. So in the long run the decision was bad for both of them but Henry fixed that. By going to the camp and not letting her go.
