Thief Lord-Writer's craft 2

The characters in the book, The Thief Lord, were well developed and thoroughly described. The first character that I want to look at is Prosper. Prosper is described as responsible, honest and giving older brother; he is a character that you can trust and depend on. Prosper is intelligent and is able to give up his needs for people around him, especially to his younger bother, Bo. You can see these characteristics throughout the book when Prosper takes care of Bo. Prosper is Characterized as a person who you want o keep close to, someone who you can always depend on for help and he has immense amount of potential. Another character that I’m going to share is someone who has a controversial characteristic with Prosper, Bo. Bo is more adventurous, hyper and outgoing character who is described to have a gorgeous smile. He has the characteristics of a typical young brother, always winning and nagging to get his ways. He is not mature yet, but is pictured as a cute younger brother with big heart of love and respect for his older brother. Bo has only Prosper to depend on and lean to. He can be a bit annoying however, when the book describes the scene of him feeding the pigeons and taking care of his little kittens, you have to love him.
The author described these characters so that they can be easily imagined and pictured. They come alive from the book and because of their realistic characteristics; you can connect and relate to them without much effort. Their personalities contain qualities that you want for yourselves, to improve.
The Theme of the book is : enjoy what you have while you can. I connected these character's characteristics by understanding the author's intention of saying that whatever characteristic you have, be happy with it because they're all unique. When you grow up, some of those qualities change, so enjoy while you can.
