Abomination Essay
Martha Dewhurst is the main character in the Robert Swindles novel, ‘Abomination’ Martha is a twelve year old in this novel but she is different from others because her life is controlled by her parents that are part of the religious group of the righteous who are different from society but the big twist in Martha's life is her family secret known as Abomination which makes her life even more miserable than it already is.
Martha also does not have a computer,cool clothes and no friends until Scott comes along who ends up being friends with the one no one expected because she gets bullied everyday of her life and most people do it to her.
I enjoyed reading about Martha and she helped me understand the definition of resilience and friendship
Martha’s life is definitely not a good one but when Scott comes along that is the turning point because he was being kind to her.It started through giving her his ruler to borrow where everyone else never gave her any of their gear to use or let her sit near them. They called her names like Ma and Raggedy Ann. I think that lending her the ruler was a game changer.
It was as if that one ruler was a friendship elixir and Martha & Scott were the ones to be in it’s range.
Another sign of them being friends was when Scott is being kicked around on the floor. Martha goes for a teacher who happens to be Mr Kilroy and everyone in the school knows you don’t want to get on his bad side.
After that Martha proved to be one of Scott’s newest friends because he has only been at the school for a few days which kind of reminds me of myself and my friend Caleb.because he helps me out sometimes like giving me feedback on some of my works of art and we are gonna start a you tube channel together so yeah we definitely are good friends.
Martha’s friendship grows so strong that Martha trusts Scott enough to tell him the family secret. Scott helps Martha by sending messages to Martha’s big sister Mary, who was on her own from the age of 16. Scott explains the whole story to Mary who arrives and gets both Martha and the so called Abomination away from their parents.Personally I think that their friendship was a good one because they helped each other out which is what friends do.
This Essay was about the friendship of Martha & Scott and how they broke through every obstacle in their friendship
and therefore she came with one of her friends Annette and gets both Martha and the so called Abomination whose real name was Jim at the age of 6 and was Mary's son.
