<h3>Being brave and embracing one's weakness.</h3>
Explanation:
- In the story "Sweet, Difficult Sounds", Nothukula, who immigrated from Zimbabwe, felt like an outcast in her school and thought that no one would understand her accent and English.
- She remained silent in her class and barely spoke to anyone as she felt insecure about her English. However, she learns to speak with confidence after her auntie teaches her how to speak in front of the class.
- In this way, Nothukula could finally recite the poem in front of the whole class in her second attempt with confidence and clarity.
- The main idea about "Sweet, Difficult Sounds" is to face your problems head on and to embrace one's weakness.
The wife of this story fits the archetype of the wicked stepmother. It is actually mentioned that she is the stepmother of Hansel and Gretel, but she is also cruel and mean to them.
When the family faced difficulties to procure daily bread, she proposes her husband to abandon their children in the forest to solve the problem. She is also cruel with Hansel when he said he was looking at his little white cat.
The wife is neither ingenuous nor a warrior.
