Who am I? wk 6 6th of June 2019
this week in the book who am I Mary and her friend tony who is Italian start to learn to ignore the bullies. John is so very rude to Mary and accused her of stealing the teachers bag and humiliated her in front of the whole grade.
The one thing that really frustrates me is that her own brother is bulling her as well, i have 4 sisters and i know if they were to ever bully me i would be very disappointed because having a siblings is suppose to also have a friend but a friend wouldn't bully you. its also not like she can tell her biological mum because she is part of the stolen generation.
the thing I really like is that Mary doesn't let the bully's bring her down and shes so good when it comes to negativity.
It is hard to imagine what life is like for Mary. It is so sad to think she was taken away from her family. What a cross she was walking with. There is still so much we need to do to acknowledge the wrongs done in our past. It will be interesting to see how the relationship develops throughout the story.
