This link right here is a link to the document I have been doing today
A key moment for Ellie, in Tomorrow when the War began, is when she had the idea to turn a lawn mower into an explosive bomb. This moment is key for her as a character because it would be her first time creating such a dangerous thing. This has resulted in her killing the soldiers and having to live with the trauma of killing people on her shoulders. In Chapter seven, Ellie and two of her friends are hiding from the invaders. At this moment she is very much scared that her and her friends are going to get caught. Ellie thinks quickly to develop a plan to protect her friends and escape from the soldiers by using the lawnmower as a bomb by putting a rag in the gas-tank and lighting it. This shows the reader that Ellie is brave,smart and capable of leadership. A quote that shows Ellie’s courage is on pg 90 “for the first time I saw their faces and struck the match”. This shows that Ellie’s actions saved their lives in a life and death situation. This is a moment that's gonna be with Ellie from majority of her life
