Final Reflections

I loved this book! It was so easy to relate to Lakshmi. She was just a young girl who had terrible luck. I truly felt everything that she was feeling. I think that Patricia McCormick did an amazing job at showing what people in the slave trade have to go through. I think that everyone should read this book. It was amazing and hard to put down. I loved all of the symbols throughout the book. I thought that Sold was a great form of catharsis. I think that Patricia McCormick wrote the novel so that even someone who has never gone through something like the slave trade could relate to what was going on. I felt like I was Lakshmi while I was reading the book, and I think that because of this I was able to get a better feel of what it would be like to have to deal with that every day. I thought that Sold helped to show that life is very different in other parts of the world. I did not even know that the story was taking place in modern days until I read about TVs and digital cameras. I think that what is happening in these other countries is terrible, and something needs to be done to help. Sold helped show that these terrible things are going on. I think that this was one of my favorite books.
