In The Chocolate War, the symbolic nature of the chalk in Brother Leon's hands was to convey a powerful message to the reader that he was merciless.

<h3>What is a literary symbol?</h3>

A literary symbol is a mark, sign, or word that is used to represent an idea, object, or relationship beyond the ordinary meaning.

For instance, as a horrible man, Brother Leon holding chalk shows that he has no mercy as a powerful school administrator.
