Connection and character anlysis

    In the book "Of Mice and Men", there are events that happenend in real life that the book had connected to. Throughout the book George and Lennie were looking for a job and moved from state to state to have money to pay for there daily needs. George and Lennie move a lot and get jobs from different states they are referred to as migrant workers, workers who look for work and go anywhere for it. George and Lennie need the money because during this time being economically stable was a hard thing to obtain because of " The Great Depression". "The Great Depression" was a time where the economy took a bad overturn, banks had to close down and the money people stored were taken by the bank. Most of the people had to keep moving from place to place in order to stay afloat just like George and Lennie. 



     The Character that I chose is Lennie. Lennie being a person who is a "Small Person". But none the less a caring and loving person. From the book Lennie has a dead mouse in his pocket which of whom he pets and treats it like an alive mouse. The fact that he can't differentiate an alive mouse to a dead mouse, but people like me and you can be able to. Just because the mouse is dead, Lennie still treated it with care and cared for it. Lennie kept the mouse safe. Although Lennie is a big guy he still is very caring and loving person.
