We must have the courage to do the right thing. Based on the novel that you
have read, provide incidents from the novel that support this statement.
The novel Dear Mr.Kilmer highlights the importance of being brave and
has the courage to do in what we believe in although we might face many
obstacles. The main character of this story, Richard Knight depicts uprightness
throughout the story and there are a few incidents from this novel that
reflects his principles.
The first incident is when he does not want to kill animals and although he
was ridiculed by his brother but he insisted to practice what he believes. In this
challenging world, people might perceive us many ways but we must be strong
and only do things that we think which is right rather than doing things to
satisfy others.
The third incident that I would like to highlight is when Richard finds it
is unfair and very wrong for Hannah declined to play the character Lady Liberty
as she won the contest fair and square. He was daring to say that she should not
worry about people who are stupid and narrow-minded.
Being rational, brave, fair, and believe in our principles are the qualities
we should have in ourselves as these qualities will ensure us to be good humans
and help us to lead a noble life.

A brave man is not he who doesnt feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
With close reference to the text, describe how this portrayed by one of the
characters and explain how this quality would benefit you.
It is essential for us to put away any fear we have in order to achieve our
ambition. Many a times, most of us will put our desire on a hold due to our fear.
What do we fear? We might be afraid of what people might think of us or we
might be afraid of being humiliated or laughed by others. It is important for us
to know our priority and carry on in what we believe in.

Family supports family. With close reference to the text, describe how this is
portrayed by one of the characters and explain how this quality would benefit
you.
In my opinion, when the family support family it will bring many benefits
for us just like the idiom many hands make light works. For example, Richard
cleans the barn and shovels manure with his father which his brother, Gus never
does. He does twice the amount of work Gus does on the farm but he does not
complain. The hired workers are amazed at what a diligent worker Richard is.
From these evidences, it shows that the concept of family supports family will
not only can make our work light, it also helps to strengthen the relationship
between family members.
