Mary Jane Story Board Project
Storyboard Text
- Middle of the Book: Mary Jane starts her diet, practically starving herself. She starts only eating a piece of toast per day. Then, she starts thinking irrationally. She makes the cheerleading team, but it costs her her best friend.
- I'm sorry! I didn't mean it!
- I'm never speaking to you again.
- Hey Wendy, I'm really sorry about what I said. Can we be friends again?
- End of Book: Mary Jane and Wendy make up, and Mary Jane and Peter start dating. The drink that is making people more violent stops being made thanks to Mary Jane.
- Hi. I really like you. Do you maybe wanna...go out sometime?
- Moral, lesson learned, and theme: I believe that the theme of the story Mary Jane is "listen to people when they try to help you". I think this could be the theme because, in the story, Mary Jane makes decisions that many of her friends and family advised her against. For example, Mary Jane starts a diet where she is actually starving herself. However, Peter warns her about it. The text states, "Oh, Mary Jane. They call you that because it's short for 'Anorexia'. Rex. Get it" (O'Brien 122)? This shows that if she had listened to Peter, she could have avoided being dangerously skinny all along. A lesson taught could be "skinny doesn't mean pretty" because Peter tells her that the other kids make fun of her for her skinniness.
