4. Concluding Paragraph
Restate your main points of your essay. These are usually your topic sentences for each of the body paragraphs.
The hero archetype embodies many different attributes, like saving the smaller and weak from the wicked and using supernatural, or unusual powers to defeat the enemy. This could not have been more obvious than when Max went on the journey to rescue Angel and must use her powers to defeat one of The School’s toughest henchmen. While Max seems strong and tough, she has a mothering side to as shown in the book when she gathers food for breakfast, makes the younger children take baths, and comforts them.
Restate your claim/thesis in a different way.
James Patterson has developed Max to be a multidimensional character. In real life, people have different attributes. He made Max seem real to the readers by giving her two very different qualities: the tough hero and the tender mother.
A final statement about why this claim/thesis is important.
By developing Max into a more well-rounded character, this helps the reader to connect with the character and story more closely.
