Cause/Effect

Authors Note: This is a cause/effect piece about the book The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane demonstrating that I have a clear understanding of how cause/effect effects a story.

When Edward Tulane an expensive china doll bunny leaves his owner to set out to find to the meaning of love, he doesn’t realize how difficult the journey will be. The climax of the book is when he left his owner for distinct reasons, he didn’t think he belonged ; he wants to figure out what it feels like to be loved. Although, he cared for his owner Abilene, he always longed to be loved by someone. Being cuddled,kissed, and praised is all that poor Edward Tulane has ever wanted. And the effect of this is he goes on a journey to find what he portrays as love. He meets three people: an ill little girl, an old fisherman, and a toy store owner. The old fisherman makes him understand how being appreciated means but unfortunately he becomes separated from him. When he meets the ill little girl he finally finds falls in love with being this girl’s doll. But tragedy strikes and she dies from her severe sickness. And poor Edward is heartbroken, so the little girls brother takes him to the toy store owner. Where he sits in the store with his soul crushed. People came in and bought him but every time he was sold he was returned. But he didn’t care at all he missed the love from the girl. So the cause and effect in this story is he finds love in the little girl so the effect was he was never satisfied with his several owners. This story is very similar to the book "Matilda" by Roald Daul because in the story she never feels like she is loved by her parents similar to Edward but with his original owner. So in conclusion, there are many stories that have this similar plot line to this story.
