4-7-14 Perks of being a Wallflower pgs 61-72
Summary: With Christmas near, Charlie is involved in a Secret Santa that Patrick and Sam put on with all their friends. Charlie is Patricks Secret Santa. When th e final exchange is upon them, Charlie gives everyone involved a gift. He gave Sam an old record that meant a lot to him. He reads Patrick a poem about Michael for the final gift.
Quote: “And she kissed my cheek and whispered so nobody could hear.
‘I love you’”
Sig of Quote: Hearing this come out of Sams mouth may have been the best thing that has ever happened to Charlie. Even if it was just in a friendsly way, it still means a lot to him. Now he knows that he has friends who love him.
Reflection: This is an amazing bonding experience for Charlie. Before he met this group of people, he felt as if he had to purpose in life. After the death of his closest friends Michael, he was left completely alone. This is very accurate, for all his old friends have changed since middle school. Sam and Patrick becoming friends with Charlie is the best thing to heal is wounded soul. These great kids have distracted Charlie from his problems, and opened his eyes to new amazing life opportunities.
Question: Did Charlie write that poem he read to Michael?
