sympathize with the slave women who are separated from their children. In Stowe’s appeal‚ we hear echoes of the two main themes of Uncle Tom’s Cabin: motherhood and Christian duty.

Indeed‚ Stowe is preaching to her readers‚ and her words evoke images of punishment upon the judgement day. Stowe wants her readers to feel that time is short before they

Goodnight Mr.Tom Comparing The Book And The Film In my opinion the book and movie are more different rather than similar.
