Peter Treegate

Author's note: I am writing this as a response to different types of POV's.

Peter Treegate is a young lad whose life is about to take a turn for the worst. When he is apprenticed to a old barrel maker who has two other apprentices one of which helps him and the other who despises him. The reader sees the story through the eyes of this young boy instead of the eyes of a grown man or woman which creates an idea of how the children felt during the years leading up to the war. For instance, if you had seen the Boston Massacre through the mind of an adult you would have a different idea of it contrary to the mind of a child. Another example of this would be where If you were a adult who had just witnessed a murder and you knew who the person was that was the murderer you would take a different action than that of a child’s actions. In a lot of books it all depends on mainly the age and gender of the main character and what it would be like in the opposite POV that makes the story come alive.
