ADVISE : First off, never start your thesis statement off like " i'm going to tell you" or " In this." you want to grab the reader, and make the reader want to read more.

You may also start your your thesis with a question that you may think people will have about the short story, or you had while reading the short story, you MUST answer this question in your writing though.

Explanation:
Neil Gaiman's short story "Click-Clack the Rattlebag" revolves around a horror story told by a young boy to his sister's boy friend. Through the boy friend who is the narrator of the story, we can understand the theme of the story of how things are not how they originally seem to be.
