Visual Timeline - Andy Mulligan's "Trash"
Theme = journey Visual Image = Smile The image of a smile links to the theme of a journey as is represents the positive outlook on life that the three main characters had. Raphael, Gardo and Jun Jun stayed positive, despite many serious problems they had to face. One of these problems was when they were escaping from the police and borrowed a street cart to carry little Maria in. They had fun zooming through the streets on the cart, despite the fact that they were in serious danger. Throughout the terrible and dangerous journey the boys stayed positive, thought quickly and constantly surprised the reader with their clever ideas. |
