13. Theme

14. Theme: Three Little Pigs Hard work is important and better in the long run, even if it takes longer to accomplish your goal.

15. Theme: Frozen Accept yourself for who you are. When you accept yourself others will too.

16. Theme A theme will never include anything I cannot apply to my own life. You cannot be so specific to the book that it does not apply to me. In other words saying: “Don’t ever trust a vampire” is not a theme because I cannot use it in my life. This is your chance to teach me something I can use in my life.
