Perseverance
“If at first you don’t succeed (we all know the ending here, right?) try, try again.” That could be the mantra of many characters in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Those with the most determination and perseverance are the biggest winners overall—the ones who reach their goals. Look at Mama; she works through so many obstacles to get her children educated and off to a better life. It’s the same for Francie, too—she is determined to meet her goals even when it seems like she just can’t catch a break. Maybe the author wants us to consider the role that perseverance plays in a person’s ability to get away from poverty.
In A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, perseverance is the key to getting out of poverty.
Persevering though challenges makes people appreciate their achievements more than if things come easily.
