Comparison between Fly Away Home and Smoky Night

There are many similarities to Smoky Night and Fly Away Home. One example of that is that both themes of the book are don’t lose hope. In both of the stories, there is something that gives them hope; Fly Away Home has the bird which gives Andrew hope and in Smoky Night, there is Jasmine, the cat that gives Daniel hope. Another similarity is that both of them-Andrew and Daniel have something bad that has happened to them. For example, Andrew is homeless and had to live in the airport. Daniel, during the riots, had his apartment burned.

There are also some differences too. For example, Andrew lives in the airport while Daniel lives in a good apartment. They also have different dangers. Andrew and his dad live in the airport, so they have the danger of being caught. If they got caught, they would have nowhere to live, except on the street. And Daniel’s dad hates living on the streets. On the other hand, Daniel has the danger of being depressed and he could get killed by the fire. That would be really bad.

So that is what I think of the similarities and differences between the two stories. Thank you for reading this post.
