Follow the directions step by step to write your essay. 1. Choose one of the messages left by Mrs. Partridge:
“Don’t judge a man until you’ve walked two moons in his moccasins.”
“Everyone has his own agenda.”
“In the course of a lifetime, what does it matter?”
“You can’t keep the birds of sadness from flying over your head, but you can keep them from nesting in your hair.”
“You never know the worth of water until the well is dry.”

2. In an essay of 3–5 paragraphs, complete the following:
a. In the first paragraph of your essay, paraphrase the message you chose (explain what it means in your own words).
b. Next, explain how the message relates to the characters and plot in Walk Two Moons. Be specific. For example, if you choose to discuss how the quote relates to Phoebe, be sure to describe specific incidents from the novel that illustrate your point.
c. Finally, explain how the message relates to all people. Be sure to explain your responses fully. Use examples from your own experience, from people you know, and from stories that you have heard to support your interpretation of the message.

After you have analyzed the quote and connected it to a single character and to all people, write a concluding paragraph that states the novel’s theme according to your analysis of the quote. In other words, after reading Walk Two Moons, what is the main message that Sharon Creech might hope to leave with readers?
