Theme of the Book
The theme of this book is not to under estimate your self. Like when America, the main character, thought she wasn't pretty or good enough to get into the selection. Later she got a letter in the mail saying the she has been selected for the selection. I can relate to this in my life; I remember once I thought i wasn't capable of getting into Legal Lives. That was a program kind of thing in 5th grade. After a week i got a letter saying that i got excepted into Legal Lives. Ever since then i haven't thought my self not good enough for anything.
Point of View
I think the point of view of this book is first person because only one person is speaking at a time. Also it uses "I".
