In this essay the main topic is going to be the turning points in three different stories. A turning point is when something or something comes to a sudden change. For example, for my birthday my uncle gave me some money for whatever I wanted to buy and I was happy that what he gave me.
One reason that someone's life can change is by receiving a gift. For example, in “An American Childhood” Annie Dillard gets a microscope for christmas and when she is playing around with it she finds the famous amoeba. When she finds the famous amoeba she runs to her parents to go show them but they are not interested. That is the turning point in the story. Although, she then began to realize that the rest of her life is going to be on her own.
