A Wind In the Door by Madeleine L' Engle

Significance- This is important because it is about all of the little things are just as important in the universe as the bigger things. And that everything matters and there is not one thing that does nothave a job that helps the universe survive. We should care about this because if on thing was taken out of our eco- system or one small detail in the universe was changed then it would change everything else with it. So if you took out plankten, then the fish that eat the plankten would die and the fish that eat the fish would die and then sharks would die and the population or what ever sharks eat that doesn't eat fish would increase. And it would be all messed up.

Perspective- I think the issue that the author is writing about is that all of the little things are not being appreciated. (Like the plankten.) And that people should care about these little things because everything has there own puprpose and it should all be appreciated. None of it should be taken for granted. If I needed to explain this to a third grader then I would tell them a short summary of the entire book and simplify everything.

Evidence- The argument being made is that there are not enough people who care about every little thing in the universe and thing you could take out one little detail and it won't make a difference. But it would. The facts that weaken the argument is that there are alot of people who do care about it and are aware of everything but there are still alot of poeple who aren't.

Connection- This connects to the real-world because it is about the real-world and how people are unaware of everything thing that helps us survive.This aplies to my life because I just realized everything that I took for granted. Like the plankten. I bet if you asked someone if they really appreciated them they would say 'No, they are just little organisms in the ocean.' But they aren't. They are apart of the food chain in the ocean.This inspires me to read the next book in the series. All the way until the series ends.

Suppostion- If everyone cared about every little detail in the universe than I think the world would be a better place. I think everyone would care and try to stop Global Warming. Animals would not be going extinct. We would not test on animals. People would not be so shallow. And carea bout themselves all the time. If it wasn't true that everything in the universe has a purpose, then I think...well I do not know what would happen. I can't imagine it. MAybe there would be nothing. I don't know.
