What are 2 reasons why the littluns obey the call of the conch?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

They obeyed the call of the conch for they assume Ralph to be a link with the adult world and also for the entertainment it provides whenever any meetings are held.

Explanation:

The book<em> </em><em>Lord of the Flies</em> by William Golding tells the story of stranded children in a deserted island. These groups of British schoolboys were being evacuated from the war when their plane crashed, leaving them to try to survive in the wild.

The<em> "littluns''</em> were a group of the younger boys who were still too young to be left alone. They were about the age group of six years, with not much to do or be tasked to do. While the older boys tried to group the tasks and find ways to survive, these groups of <em>"littluns" </em>were just left to do whatever they wanted.

Chapter 4 directly states why they obey the call of the <em>"conch"</em>, the symbol of leadership. <em>"They obeyed the summons of the conch, partly because Ralph blew it, and he was big enough to be a link with the adult world of authority; and partly because they enjoyed the entertainment of the assemblies</em>".
