According to Laurie do the other students tend to side with charles or the teacher

well in real life probably the students but I don't understand if this a question for a actual question or just asking.

answer: ok heres what i got on google

explanation: to recognize illness in frogs, toads, newts, or salamanders, look for the following signs:

inactivity or unusual behaviors. the first thing you might notice in your amphibian is abnormal behavior or appearance.

gradual or sudden weight loss.

body/abdominal bloat.

skin blotches.

eye cloudiness.

edema.

the book's theme is the moral ambiguity of the iranian revolution, history of middle eastern relations and the process of growing up during war. it sheds light on the stereotypical views of middle eastern culture and religion.

the author explicitly portrays the issues of class disparities and racism continously throught the whole novel.

the relationship between parents and childrens, the abandonment of faith, modernity vs fundamentalism and class conflict are the 4 main panels that this novel englobes.

hope this , if you would like me to be more specific about a specific excerpt let me know : )
