Theme 1

One theme in The April Witch shows that everyone is different in their own ways. In this particular story, Cecy is a seventeen year old girl who is very unique oppose to other girls that are her age. In this story, Ray Bradbury shows that people will go out of their way to try and be something that they definitely are not. Through out the story all Cecy wanted to do is to feel love and not only was she not supposed to because of her magical powers but she herself was scared because of who she was. Today, in reality a lot of people try to be someone that they aren't just to impress other people but everyone should love themselves for who they are not for what other people would want them to be. Cecy clearly was not comfortable with herself to feel love with a boy being herself and when she went in to another girl's body, now how would she know if that boy loved her and not the girl who's body she went in to.
