Theme
The Hunger Games has multiple themes. One theme is treat others how you would like to be treated. In the beginning of the book Katniss remembers after her father died, she was out in the rain, and Peeta saw her and gave her burned bread after his mother told him not to. Katniss remembered that durning the battle. Another theme is Survival. The tributes need to survive for their lives, and everyone around them.
Mockingjay Pin
Above is the Mockingjay pin. It was a gift given to Katniss before the battle started. She wears it while she is in the hunger games
Its time to buy it!
