Write a paper discussing the significance of the novel’s ending—of the boy finding histreasure back where his journey began, buried among the roots of a tree, in the verychurch where he dreamed of his treasure. Did the ending surprise you? Did it changethe way you look at everything that leads up to it? What might the tree represent inthis context? Why did the boy have to go so far to find that the treasure was backhome? The body paragraphs also need citations, one for each body paragraph.
