Book report

I read a very interesting book that shares a lot of feelings, emotions and messages. I would love to share that with you because you might like it just like I do, and it might help you and its message might also be useful to you. That outstanding book is the one and only lord of the flies by William Golding.

First of all, what inspired me to read this book is the name “lord of the flies” it sounds like a super hero comic or something of that sort, in addition to the cover picture which is a kid with leafs in his hair and bugs on his arm.

The book is about a plain with a bunch of kids on it that crashed into an unknown island. The kids didn’t know what to do because well they are just kids. So they voted and they decided to make a kid named Ralph they’re leader. Ralph was more mature than the other kids so he put rules and commandments for kids to follow so they can live and decided to live on fruits and vegetables and to pee in the rocks near the beach and to have some sort of conference to discuss what they wanted. One of the kids, Jack, got sick of Ralph’s rules and jus couldn’t accept him as a leader anymore so he just voted against him and decided to form his own group. That group was more vicious and cruel, they decided to hunt for their food and to just live wildly. It ended up in disaster and Ralph’s group deceased him and left him alone with the fat asthmatic kid with glace which they called piggy. They stole Piggy’s glace to make fire and mistakenly killed a boy because they thought he was a monster. When Ralph and his partner went to speak with Jack to find a solution they killed Piggy but Ralph managed to run away. They torched the forest and kept searching for Ralph to kill him but failed. The smoke that was coming out of the forest was seen by a passing boat and went there right away and saved these kids.

Personally, I think this is a magnificent book that must be read by all the kids and adults as it holds so many lessons. Some of the messages learned are that one must care for his child and teach him the ways of life and how to live in the woods, so he knows what to do in such a situation, that violence is never a way of solving anything or proving anything to anybody, and that evolving is not based on power yet it is based on intelligence and finding solutions and also another lesson is to never give up on life because there is always a solution and that life always gets better. The book has many more lessons that can not be written or said in words, yet the thing I did not understand in the book is the relation between the book and it’s title, I mean there is nothing in the book that has any relation with flies.
