PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
FRIENDSHIP
FORGIVENESS
Throughout the novel, the students learn to take responsibility for their own actions. One example of this is when Peter takes responsibility for Mr. Terupt's horrible injury.
One example of a special friendship is the one between Jessica and Jeffrey. They are quite the unlikely pair.
Forgiveness is a big theme in this story. One example is when the girls forgive Alexia for the horrible way she treated all of them.
Because of Mr. Terupt Themes
It's not your fault, Jeffrey.
LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!
It's okay, Peter. It's okay.
I am so sorry. I was so horrible to all of you!
