The Theme

  The theme..when Mafatu was 3 years old mafatu's mother died. Mafatu's fear is the sea mafatu wasen't that brave enough. His big brother keeps calling him coward and he's not brave. Mafatu didn't want to get made fun of by his brother. Mafatu becomes braver because of all the things happend is the book.




I think 7th graders and other people should read Call it Courage because it's an adventure book it's maybe good for people who likes ro go on adventurs with there dog or something. Call it courage has some words u can't understand so try to sound it out. Tell other people about the book like tell them it's a adventure book. My favorite part was when mafatu was saving his dog uri from this big shark.
