In my book "Pretenders", it has more than one character. There are like 5, in all its is always first person point of view. There's Lily, Duffy, Sheridan, Jagger, and Vanessa. They all have their own story, some are sad and some are not. Like Jagger he is left alone because his parents are in jail for beating up a kid that used to bully another kid (which wasn't any of their business) Either way they are being told that they will have a death sentence. Lilly is pregnant with twins (weird she's only 15) she really doesn't have a role model. Sheridan is the smart one, she is paid when she gets good grades but her parents fight a lot and they act like a normal family when they are out and about in front of others. Duffy is the new kid, he sells clothes to others and is on the basketball team. He is new to public high school in Noble High where the setting is taking place. Like I said before everybody has their own story.
One conflict in this book is Sheridan's parents, they fight so much she is SICK of it! Her way of dealing with it is putting her mind on other things, such as sports and clubs. She focuses on the good things in her life rather than the bad . This shows us that even when we have family problems instead of making the wrong decision we should put our minds to other things and let the rocky road move along.
Great connection of the conflicts to the theme! Next time, remember to mention what specific type of conflict it is you see.
