Question:Based on the novel Mr. Kilmer write about your favourite character and why you like him?
In the novel Dear Mr . Kilmer , my first favourite character is Richard Knight . In this story , he starts out being timid . He hide his passion for poetry writing , he didn't want anyone find out what he's hinding for.
And, he is kind , he pretended to miss shooting the buck , he avoid killing those precious lifes , he didn't want to stop the animal's life. But , He did not show his opinion verbally.
But then , after Mr. Kilmer reply his letter ,Mr.kilmer advised him do what he should do , what he must do ,told him he must overcome his fear . Then he became braveness , he brave enough to read a letter from Mr. Kilmer and recite his own poetry in front of his classmates.
In addition, Hannah , his classmate and her family were targeted because of German. Mrs. Hansen wanted class to sign a card as a sign of sympathy for them . But , nobody sign it expect Richard . Although , he knew he will have trouble like the class bullies . True enough , someone try to create trouble but Richard held his own and fought back .
I really like Richard when he stood up for what he believed in and gave up what was important to him .
It's clear to see that Richard has evolved from a timid boy to a more verbal , courageous , open one. He did not hide his poetry anymore nor anyone views too .
