If You Come Softly #2

If You Come Softly
Jacqueline Woodson
Realistic Fiction
80/181 pages

1. Jeremiah is facing a Man vs. Society conflict because he is a black boy, and the story is taking place during tough times for black people.
2. He copes with this conflict by playing basketball because it calms him down and lets him forget about everything.
3. This conflict still goes on only in few parts of the world, and it is slowly starting to fade.
4. If I were facing the same conflict, I would probably also go out and kick a soccer ball.
5. I would play soccer because it just clears my mind of everything and I only focus on one thing; the ball.
