Lunch-Box Dream

I  predict that in my book a car accident will bring two families together that otherwise would have never met, and they will rely on each other for confidence and happiness in this rough time. A text to self connection is that in tough time we have relied on others for support the same as I believe this family will. A text to world connection is that many people are judged based on their skin color. This story takes place during the pre-civil rights era when many African Americans had very few rights. Finally a text to text connection is I think it is kind of like the book Whirligig because it talks about how an accident can bring to families closer together.
