A Long walk to Water- Section three

One: Salva overcomes his fear of lions by not giving himself anytime to think about it. He keeps himself so busy he doesn't have anytime to think. When I was younger, I was scared of the dark, I thought something under my bed wanted to pull my under, but for some reason, I didn't think of it in the day. To be honest, though, my fear wasn't ever as bad as his. I overcame this by showing myself there was nothing there.

Two: I think the worst element he has/is facing was the desert. His best friend was killed by lions at this point, and he had even less water. Others have been suffering from thirst, five close to death.

Three: Uncle Jeweiir was encouraging Salva by telling him to get to a particular spot, then giving him a reward. If Salva didn't have his Uncle, he probably would've gone mad and be left behind. I can apply it by being more encouraging to my friends and family.

Four: Respect for the cultures is one message/theme, and 'Some people have to fight for things we take for granted." (Im quite proud of that line, I made it up.)
