Essay Pre-Planning

In my essay about 'Tomorrow, When The War Began' I will go over a key event and how this event changes the character within the story. The key event is closer to the end and describes how the characters Homer, Lee, Ellie, and Fi blow up an important bridge. This bridge is important to their invaders because it is used to transport supplies from and to Wirrawee. Through blowing up the bridge they have cut off an important supply route and started a small revolution they hope to spread throughout the people, country, and world. The important character that changes after this event, or is evidently shown before and during is Fi. This character changes in a way where at the beginning of the story she is described as shy, non-confrontational, and reserved. Since the beginning of the book and throughout this event we see the changes she has made to herself and how she treats others. During this event we see her become more involved in the group, whereas at the beginning it is told about how she avoided chores while taking their trip in Hell. Another change she's been through is how much more confident than the shyer girl we meet at the start of the story. The third change we see is how she no longer desires the reserved life she grew up with. Instead, she wants to leave that life behind, and go into farming with her boyfriend, Homer. This represents a major change because at the beginning we see her as such a reserved girl she doesn't even know what two-minute noodles are.
