Theme

The theme of

most of Mike Lupica's

books I read are probably a

theme relating to dad

problems because they all

revolve around a problem

with their dad. So the theme

of all 3 of these books is

Family problems, but Hero's

theme would be Good Vs Evil.

I think that because you

can not tell who's good and

evil through out the story.

Figurative language

You probably will not find much

figurative language in Mike Lupica's

books that's not onomatopoeia or

simile. For example, you will

probably find: The bat hit the ball

with a "Crack!", or: The basketball

game was as fast as a timer set

to 20 seconds.

In this assignment I made

a story using words from the

books I read.

Michael was on The Big Field with

Kate while Herbert was the Pitcher.

Mike Lupica had Manny be Shortstop.

Herbert started to throw Heat. Then

like a Hero, Ellie hit a home run off of

him. Darryl was in center field, and

tossed the ball to second (Cody). Cody

threw it to the catcher, but not in time

Zach and Ellie scored 2 points.

Heat

Heat is about a boy named Michael who moved from

Cuba to New York City. Michael has a 17 year old

brother named Carlos, and a dad named Papi. Papi

worked as a taxi driver and later died defending a

woman. Papi requested to Mrs. C, their apartment

neighbor, to keep his death a secret in order to keep

Carlos and Michael together. So Michael and Carlos

have to avoid or accomplish many problems, such as

trying to find a lost birth certificate in order for

Michael to play baseball.
