I have this question because I am quite confused
The boy is the narrator of the third and also narrates part of the last chapter with his sister. The boy is naïve, and childlike and he worships his father who is absent from a big portion of the novel. The boy has a passion for animals that represent for him freedom and liberty, things he is denied since he is an Asian. Just like his sister, when the boy returns home, he becomes extremely obedient and is careful not to talk back to anyone and to be as good as possible.
