Theme
The theme of the book is inequality between rich and poor. Because the capitol treats the 12 districts with very poor respect and and makes them work very very hard for very little food and pay. They also punish them very harshly if they don't follow the rules in that district.
Applying the theme to my life
I can apply the theme to my life by thinking of all the poor people we have in our world. For instance, maybe one of your friends doesn't have all the cool and expensive gadgets you have. So you start to treat them differently like your better than them and make them do the sloppy work. That is kind of like what the capitol does to the 12 districts. the capitol thinks their better than the 12 districts so they make sure that they live at a higher standard than them and the districts have to do all the sloppy work and live at a very low standard. This is how I can apply the theme to my life.
