Theme

The theme of a book is a writer's central idea or main message about life.
In the book Fever by Laurie Halse Anderson the theme is overcoming hard times. Throughout the whole book, the yellow fever makes people ill and kills them, but Mattie survives the fever and takes care of all the others with the fever. Mattie overcame the hard times she faced in the book by staying alive and helping her grandfather until his death. She survived through out the whole book because the author is trying to tell you that she is brave and doesn't give up.
