“Now here is my secret. It is only one’s that one can see clearly what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
-Antoine Saint Exupery
I think why Jack`s Perspective is connected with this quote, because when Jack said bad stuff about August to Julian and his friends, to stop teasing him that he was hanging out with August. Jack said he would like to hang out with August instead of Julian and his friends.
He can’t defend himself because from Julian, Henry and Miles. Even though he didn’t mean it and regrets it, to say something mean about August, August heard it and felt hurt and thought that Jack wasn’t His friend and that Mr. Tushmen told him to be his friend, when he heard it August felt hurt. Jack didn’t know August heard and saw him, say that we would die if he looked like him. Julian just wants to stay popular and doesn’t care about August. Jack wants to be friends with August because he’s fun.
Jack proved to Julian that he would like to be with August when he punched Julian on the face. Julian created a plague against August and Jack. Eventually people start to not care about the plague and only Julian and his friends. But sooner his friends came to help Jack and August from Grade 7 bullies. Julian only cares about what he feels and not what other people feel. Julian doesn’t know that August is a good friend because he doesn’t try to be nice to him. August didn’t know Jack didn’t mean it and was just doing it to stop Julian and his friends from teasing him, because in Jack`s heart he is a friend of August.
That’s why I think Jack is connected to this quote.
