What does Nya’s experience with the thorn tell us about her?

It tells us that Nya is strong and determined to keep going. She must keep going on the path to water to help her family survive.

You need to submit each of your questions one at a time. Thanks!

Reread this sentence about a Rebel soldier:
“A soldier hit him in the face with the butt of a gun.”
If the Rebels are supposed to be the “good guys,” why are they being so harsh?
