"The Scribe" by Kristin Hunter

Proud and respected

Fearful and worried

Angry and frustrated

Bored and uninterested

Wealth makes you happy

The power of words can help make change

Adventure is worth pursuing

Friendship is priceless

Writing is not important to life.

It is only for school assignments.

It can be a powerful tool for change.

It should only be used for fun.

He wants to make money.

He wants to start his own business.

He sees people being treated unfairly.

How to read a form.

To work hard and don't give up.

Her example gives him the courage to consider applying for a license.

To entertain with a humorous story.

To show the value of helping others through writing.

To criticize the education system.

To explore family dynamics.

By describing colorful scenes.

By sharing his thoughts and feelings.

By focusing on his dreams.

By telling jokes to his friends.
