"How does the story of "The Big Fish (the Goodwin's journey) relate to our lives?"

- It may help to think and write about the metaphors and symbolism revealed by what is said by Given. It may also help to think and write about what lessons are being passed down by the Goodwin family’s search for the Big Fish.
- Use "because," "I think," and "For example," in your paragraph(s) to extend your ideas (what you are thinking) and help you reflect authentically in writing.
