Describe Schatz's appearance
Answers
Answer:
The father’s son is a nine-year-old boy nicknamed “Schatz,” or treasure. When he falls ill with influenza, he attempts to appear mature, manly, and unemotional. Rather than admit to the weaknesses of illness, confusion, loneliness, or fear, he denies himself rest, company, and sympathy on what he thinks is his deathbed. At his age, he doesn’t understand enough about the world to realize that America uses a different temperature scale than most other countries; since his French classmates told him that a 44-degree fever is fatal, and he has a whopping 102-degree fever, the boy mistakenly believes that he is dying. When the boy’s father assures him that he isn’t going to die, the boy quits trying to act so mature allows himself to cry over minor upsets.
