Dear Mr. Kilmer- Unforgettable Event

The novel that I read was ‘Dear Mr Kilmer’ by Anne Schraff. The event that I find unforgettable is the unfair treatment towards the Schermers. I would lie to e!"lain why I feel this event is unforgettable to me. #irstly$ I don’t lie to be called bad names. In the story$ #irstly$ story$ %annah’s schoolmates called her ‘Dirty %un’. They even scribbled &Dirty %un' all over her boo cover. (nfortunately$ (nfortunately$ some Turtle )ae "eo"le believed that %uns were a barbaric clan originated from *ermany. Do you lie it if "eo"le start calling you Dirty Malay+,hinese+Indian- This is ust childish and e!tremely immature and that’s why I find it unforgettable. Secondly$ I don’t lie when my loyalty towards my country being /uestioned. So me Turtle )ae’s )ae’s residents said that the Schermers were un"atriotic because they s"oe *erman and served %un food at their tavern while a war was going on against ag ainst *ermany. *ermany. To To mae it worst$ their tavern was vandali0ed by some irres"onsible "eo"le of the community which I considered as com"letely uncivilised. So$ let’s get this straight. If I were a Malaysian ,hinese and I am selling ,hinese food. Does this mean I am not a loyal citi0en of Malaysia ust because I sell the food- The answer is no. I am still a blue1eyed Malaysian. 2esides that$ %annah’s brother 3tto was serving in the Army to fight *ermany *ermany.. Therefore$ this accusation is totally baseless and ridiculous. And that’s that’s why I thin it is unforgettable.  Thirdly$ I thin we should stand for what is right although everyone goes against you. 4e 4e can see this when Mrs %ansen ased her class to sign a sym"athy card for the Schermers. 5ichard was the only student who signed the sym"athy card for %annah Schermer and sent it to the family "ersonally. The troublemaers lie Abner$ Abner$ %arry$ 2lanche and 6eggy refused to sign the card. 3n to" of it$ they warned other classmates not to sign the card. This is  ust wrong and 5ichard had shown a great e!am"le to stay genuinely righteous des"ite all the unfair treatment towards the Schermers by others. This attitude is very much commendable and maes me find the event is unforgettable. In conclusion$ although the Schermers was mistreated by some Turtle )ae "eo"le$ they remained calm and "atient.
