By this point, readers are familiar with Katniss’ rebellious nature, like how she covered Rue with flowers after she died. Another life lesson that could be concluded from The Hunger Games was that one small act of kindness can change your life.

These life lessons mentioned throughout the novel allow readers to relate to the characters through what they feel and how they act. The Hunger Games not only communicates ideas of value, but also provides readers with several life lessons that could be put to use in daily
