ndltd-OhioLink-oai-etd.ohiolink.edu-csu13045476492021-08-03T05:35:19Z Eggs Stallard, Rachel Written for a young adolescent audience, Eggs attempts to mimic author Jude Blume who uses humor and creative story-telling to help children and their parents confront and discuss serious issues. Eggs is a coming of age story that uses a family’s pet iguana eggs to symbolize the transformation of the Baugh family—Dirk, the father, and his two children, Amanda and Adam—following the unexpected death of their mother. As the eggs continue to develop throughout the story, so do the relationships between the father and his new love, Paige as well as the daughter Amanda and her high school sweetheart, Troy. When the eggs finally hatch, the characters experience a rebirth of their family life. Not only a life without their mother, but one that opens up to the possibility of the father remarrying. 2011-05-25 English text Cleveland State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=csu1304547649 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=csu1304547649 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
