Sleeping Freshmen Never Lie is a 2005 young adult novel written by David Lubar. The

Perhaps the most obvious difference in their challenges was that the other Wes lacked positive role models in his life. While the author Wes had the role models of both his grandparents and fellow students at military school, the other Wes only had Tony, his drug dealing brother, to look up to. This can be seen by Wes’s motto, given to him by Tony, “Rule number one: If someone disrespects you, you send a message so fierce that they won’t have the chance to do it again,” (33). This motto played a role in the poor choices that Wes made, especially those involved with violence. Whenever Wes made the choice to either physically attack someone or attack someone with a weapon, the motto ‘send a message’ was mentioned. Tony’s negative impact on Wes affected him by allowing Wes to justify his actions and choices by saying that he was ‘sending a message’. In addition to this, despite Tony’s efforts to keep Wes out of the drug game, Wes was involved in the drug game before his teenage years. His choice to become involved in the drug game led to a crime-filled life, in which “getting arrested was starting to feel routine,” (114). This apathy towards getting arrested exemplifies Wes’s bad choices and the impact they have on his

As he got new friends, and went to a completely different school then he was used to, his personality starts to change. He does not know how to act because the two worlds of his home and school life are two completely different environments. For example on page 53 of the book, Wes says “ I was becoming too “rich” for the kids from my neighborhood and too “poor” for the kids at school. I had forgotten how to act naturally, thinking way too much in one situation and getting tangled in the contradictions. My confidence took a hit.” In this quote, you’re able to see how his two worlds between his home life and his school life are really impacting him. He can’t decide how to act, in fear that he won’t be able to fit in with any of the kids. Wes’ role models like his older brother, Tony, are a big external factor because Wes looks up to Tony and wants to be like him. Even though Tony wishes more

After following the robbery story, Wes wrote a letter to the other Wes, who was now serving life in prison. Basically Wes just asked questions that the other Wes was hoping he wouldn’t ask. This letter led to a long lasting relationship. After a few more letters and prison visits, Wes realized how both their lifestyles were different. Both grew up in similar neighborhoods, same childhood troubles and faced with similar moments that decisions had to be

From this description, it is obvious that Wesley surrenders and caters his father’s wish accepting everything his father requires him to do: like to be a sheriff, which even is a struggling occupation for him. The job “Sheriff” likes a burden for him but he still chooses it because the job is what his father designates to him, and until Frank dies, after he moves out of Montana, gets rid of his father’s control, to the extent, he dismantles his suffering a little from his father’s autocracy.

This showed how much she changed because she was considered to be a bad lady or evil. Finally another person that changed in the book was Freak, he went from a know it all child to a young caring person. Before Freak met Max he would walk around always correcting people and never thinking twice about it. But in the end of the book he learns what boundaries are, and thinks about how what he says will affect others and how it will make them feel. These were a few examples of change in the

According to Oxford’s dictionary, deception is the use of trickery or cheating to deliberately cause (someone) to believe something that is not true, especially for personal gain. But many people seldom lie to others for no reason at all, so there is a motivation, a lasting feeling to pressure them in wanting to do that and a lasting impact. Throughout Chandler’s The Big Sleep and Ford’s The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, there is a direct link to the theme of motivation to the ultimate impact to deceive others where characters deceive for the greater good, personal gain and to strengthening relationships.
