Chapter 8 - Stand Tall
Describe Sophie Santack. In your opinion, do you think she is admirable? Why or why not? Support your answers with examples.
Chapter 8 I can’t believe that Tree has made his first lady friend, Sophie Santack for the first time. I don’t understand how people are separated from each other especially when it’s boys and girls or by how their style and popularity goes. I think people should just set aside their differences and just be friends already. I do that too, unless of course the person has attitude problems like that Amber Melloncroft girl who just made fun of Sophie after a speech of why they’re mean to her. See what I mean? I’m glad though that a person like Tree existed, otherwise Sophie wouldn’t have anyone with her at her side. But Sophie is okay to me but not admirable. I guess she can make Tree open up more to people so that he could be way better than he was before.
So this girl confronts the school and then she tells these groups of girls which I consider as plastics have been trying to stay away from other people like aka popular kids. I think this type of people should be confronted and been checked because they have no right to do this to any one new or old from that school. I think everybody should be equal to each other and to others to. I Think that every person in the world should be treated equal like for the sake of mankind and we shouldn’t be uneven even though we have more money or anything we should be fare.
I like Sophie Santick's character or personality. She is brave and is ready to stand up for herself. When girls put her down, she is ready to backfire. Also, she sure does have a big mouth and a very loquacious one. Another thing that I like about her is that she makes people feel better about themselves. Like the one with Tree's height, Sophie did well telling Tree how his height stands out and that’s noticeable in a good way. Tree never thought of it that way. So I think Tree felt good about it. She's a very understanding person and has a mind of her own. Sophie is like the type “if you give me respect, I'll give you respect." Tree, on the other hand, wants to be treated equally. I think that Sophie and Tree almost have the same thoughts or ideas in way.
This new girl Sophie seems like she’s been treated unfairly by the kids. It was so kind and brave of Tree to make the first step of becoming friends with her. I think he understands how lonely she is; the feeling of being left alone in the world. By reading more, I was able to find out that Sophie is a different person than I thought. I thought she would be shy and quiet, but she’s way different. She likes to talk about issues, argue for rights, and wants to change the world. I think Tree will be learning some life lessons from Sophie. I think Sophie knows how to control her life. She’s helping Tree to have self-confidence and making the negative thinks look positive. In my opinion, I think Sophie is admirable. First of all, she knows what right or wrong. She doesn't treat others unfairly because she is treated unfairly. Also,she knows how to cheer people up with the right words. For example, I think Tree is kind of stressed because of his height and size, but Sophie tells him positive words to tell him that it's okay.
I think Sophie is kind of admirable. She's helping out Tree so much. She's helping Tree to have self-confidence. She Treats everyone fairly and give them positive advices. Tree will going to learn lot from her. She will be Tree's good friend.
