According to a different source, this unit includes the stories "I Want to be Miss America" by J.ulia Alvarez and "About Russell" by Rita Williams-Garcia.
<u>"I Want to Be Miss America" by Ju.lia Alvarez:</u> Be happy with who you are.
In this story, the sisters are unhappy with the way they look, as they do not look like the models they see in beauty pageants. As they get older, even when the sisters are called beautiful, their self-esteem remains damaged. This shows the importance of accepting who you are.
<u>"About Russell" by Rita Williams-Garcia:</u> Illnesses affect people, but does not change who they are inside.
In this story, we learn about Russell, and about the difficulties he faced throughout his life due to mental illness. However, the author shows that, even though his illness affected Russell in many ways, he always remained the same person at heart, including being a loving brother.
Based on her letter to her niece, Austen can't believe that her niece is truly "in love". Austen believes that her feelings were simply due to the proximity of the man and because of it, she can't say that she is truly "in love". She mistakes her emotions towards the man as something that is deeper, love.
Society during those times doesn't believe and allow women to think for themselves. They equate women, particularly wives, as extensions of their husbands and because of such thinking, society believes that women can't think on their own and must do her husband's bidding.
