 This story begins with a boy who is a boy scout in the middle of Brooklyn in the 1940's. He is tired of being a Tender foot, so he has to earn the badge Scout's Craft and that means doing something he has never done. He must camp out for one night in the country. In Scout's Honor by Avi, it describes the night mares of a regular city/boy scout's worst nightmares. In this analasis you will learn how the literary devices, characters, events, setting, and symbols affect this story.  First, the story begins in the middle of Brooklyn. The narrator is worrying that he is not brave enough. So he goes to his scout master (Mr. Brenkman) (p. 54-55) and askes where he can find some country that way he can earn one of his scout badges tha way he will be a full scout and not not a ​ tenderfoot. (54) He calls up his friends ( Horse and Max) and they would like to go to so they all can be tough. They agree to me e t up later so they have time to pack for the trip so that way they can be brave and prepared. Intro more about how narrator is trying to become a rank higher than tender foot in boy scouts and his problem .⇧ They set off to the city limits of New Jersey (this is where they are trying to find country). They make their way to the train station where they will take two subways to get to 168th street which will lead them to the bridge which will lead them to the outskirts of New Jersey. Along the way Max gets left on one of the trains that will reroute their route. Once they catch up with him and set off on the right train, they head to the bridge. Once they successfully cross the bridge, they reach the city limits and find themselves a little place away from garbage which was all over that part of New Jersey, which was similiar to Brooklyn. It starts to rain and they begin to have a food fight which consists of beans, so they travel the long road home (after giving up with the woods and country) remaining a tenderfoot. The second thing that affects this story is the way the setting and symbols affect __Scout's Honor__ by: Avi is first the Scout's Badge (p. 55). In this story the narrator wants the badge because he believes it resembles strength and courage, two things he thinks he doesn’t have either of those things. The way setting affects Scout’s Honor is first by living in Brooklyn to become a higher rank than Tenderfoot (p. 54) he has got to sleep in a tent in the country (A park in New Jersey in the Palisades). When they get to the polluted park it is stormy and they forgot to bring a tarp to cover their lean-to. Once they build a fire, the lean-to top (Narrator’s Mom’s favorite blanket) keeps the smoke in and drives them back to Brooklyn. Next, the characters are very competitive over which boy is the toughest. (Throughout the story) Even though the narrator and the main character are the same people, he is a nine year old boy, wants to be the toughest, and he is a Scout. Mr. Brenkman how ever is the Scout’s Master, is always dressed in Church clothes like Black or Khaki. Horse (Philip Hossfender) is the narrator’s best friend, he is skinny, and he thought he was tougher than everybody else. Max on the other hand was also best friends with the narrator, he was a pudgy little boy, and he always had pocket money. (p. 54 and 55) All of the characters have their own personalities. Horse’s personality is a mixture of attitude, argumentative, and bigger and tougher than how he really is. In this story, there are many literary devices such as alliterations, metaphors, hyperboles but there are an exceptional amount of similes. Hyperboles are when there is an obvious exaggeration such as on page 55 when the Narrator states “if this bridge falls I’m going to kill you.!” It’s a hyperbole because you know Horse really going to kill the Narrator. A metaphor is comparing two things without using like or as. Such as on page 62 when the narrator explains “we started to pick beans out of each others as the way monkey’s help friends get rid of lice.” They are comparing two things without using like or as. As you can see the story has many events that take place in our story. There are also many similes and metaphores that make this story what it is. All these things make the story morph together and complete itself (well technically I'm finishing it right now). I hope you understand the story of the boy who could be any one who's tired of being bullied(the litterary divices and events, setting, and everything else dont hurt either) maybe it could be some one you know thats is what the writer intended to begin with, for you to be able to relate to the characters and the story.
