2. What part did comic books play in Rowdy's life?

Rowdy is Arnold's best friend but he also pushes Arnold around. Their friendship is a paradox of sorts. Sometimes Rowdy's only way of releasing tension and communicating is violence so sometimes, like in an abusive relationship, Arnold gets hurt,

I was the kind of dum that got punched hard in the face by his best friend.

ok! Rowdy punched me.

ok! I hit the ground.

Bang! My nose bled like a firework.

Explanation:

Have a great day

"facing the rising sun of our new day begun

let us march on till victory is won.",

because the rising sun is a symbol of hope.

the symbol of the grandfather's heritage in this excerpt from "the medicine bag,” is the beaded bolo tie.

a bolo tie is a cord fastened around the neck with an ornamental clasp which is worn as a necktie. they have been used by native american tribes such as hopi, navajo, zuni, and puebloans since the mid-20th century.

therefore, the fact that the grandfather is wearing a bolo tie refers to his heritage as native american.
