The details that you SHOULD check are below:
Throat parched, wind-worn and bleary
Tall grasses ripple, brown and reedy,
Wind bites our tents, the darkness pure,
Sunrise, gold as melted crowns, surrounds us
The details that you SHOULD NOT check are below:
Time fades, like mist on the distant mountain
A thermos full of steaming tea,
Singular possessive because its teacher's not teachers'
The Story is something Fantastical, and it can be understand by some parts of it like:
<span>"And from inside the boot came crawling a lizard as big as a kitten, with large, shiny wings"
"</span><span>At first there were only a few, but in a week or two the country was simply running alive with dragons of all sizes, and in the air you could sometimes see them as thick as a swarm of bees"
From this parts, we can easily observe the fantastical words like Large Lizard, Dragon etc. so, the story can't be "full of facts" type.
Hope this helps!</span>
Answer:
Now, I do not know exactly what you are looking for, but in the first few pages of the book, talk about how she learned from early on that she has to 'fight for herself' to survive. For example, at the hospital, the doctors show minimal to no understanding for her condition. The nurse said, "But we don't coddle n*****s" (Beals 3) which proves that point. And then a bit later, she writes as follows: "Black folks aren't born expecting segregation... the humiliating expectations and traditions of segregation creep over you stealing a teaspoon of your self-esteem each day" (Beals 3). This shows how people of colour were told to fend for themselves ever since they were born. I think that this makes a big point in Beal's POV, because she grows up with this mentality.

Sorry if this is not exactly what you are looking for, but I really tried my best.
