In the story Charlotte Doyle, by Avi, the main character Charlotte Doyle has one big conflict that is about her voyage to America. That is because Charlotte Doyle gets put on a ship that takes her on an expedition back to America, but--she is the only female onboard… Now a theme that I would have to choose thus far into the novel would have to be “Don’t judge a book by its cover”, this works figuratively and literally because the literal would come from the actual cover, you’d think that she would be conflicted on her voyage by weather, because of the waves crashing hard against the seahawk and figuratively because of the actual book.

Charlotte realized that there was nobody on her side after the incident when Charlotte told the captain about the mutiny and then accidentally whipped the captain’s face, so she decided to take charge without the help of someone else. Charlotte decided to take charge and join the crew, “‘I’ve come,’ I managed to say, ‘to be one of the crew.’” (pg. 106). Charlotte decided to take charge of her own life like a true sailor by choosing her own wind. Even though Charlotte had chosen the best “wind” and done the right thing, the wind she chose wasn’t an easy one; she still had sort of a hard time with the captain and she even ended up being charged of murder. Charlotte decided to choose her own wind to sail her ship, or make her own choice when she realized that she was all alone with nobody on her side.

As the world expands and our communities start multiplying, it seems to be arduous to interact with people who have a 50% chance to either be kind or cruel. Sometimes those vicious people can bring you down and make you feel so small ,but what can you do stop this? Courage comes around and pushes yourself forward through life’s challenges and obstacles. If you don’t know how to use it then there are some alternatives to help your quest to find the valor in you. The dramatic novel To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee has the most guidance in that area. Courage is the ability for people to attempt a risky task in their lives even when the likelihood of failure is very high.

Doyle's A Scandal in Bohemia follows the story of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes on his adventures to retrieve a disgraceful photograph of Irene Adler and the King of Bohemia.
