    Ellen Foster Analysis

    • 920 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Ellen Foster was written by Kaye Gibbons, and the book is narrated by a young girl named Ellen Foster, telling the reader about the unique childhood she experienced, filled with an abusive father and many different homes and experiences that a ten year old child typically wouldn’t have. When interpreting the book Ellen Foster through a social power lense, you can see that the power of the society and the way Ellen grew up, and the experiences she had under the power of her elders, really pushed her to overcome her moral challenges and become a better person. If Ellen was raised in a normal home, she probably wouldn’t have stayed friends with Starletta, or overcome the internal racism that everyone possessed in the period that the book was written.…

She claims that this is because the film industry is mainly run by males. This puts girls only in relation to boys besides the rare occasion of Ariel.…
