What are some lessons learned in the book? "The Pearl"
The author of the " The Pearl" is John Steinbeck.
Through out the book Kino was the person that learned the most.
For the beginning of the book Kino was a very nice person but as the story went on that's not how it ended.
In the book most of the time Kino was in love with this pearl he found.
And this was not a ordinary pearl thathe found this was a monster pearl. It was very big and he needed to find one For his son Coyotito. Because Coyotito got stung by a scorpion and Coyotito is very ill. And then the "so what called doctor" would not do it for free to try to help the baby with the pain. And what made Kino in love with the pearl is what he could do anything with all the money it's worth.
And Kino and his village is very poor so that pearl is defiantly worth a lot to Kino and his family.
And when Kino thought he would get a lot for the pearl. And he ends up getting the money for the pearl of what he wanted for it. But Kino never sold the Pearl. And in the end of the book Kino nearly has nothing. He ends up not really having anything because Everyone wants that pearl and people tried to hurt and kill Kino and his family for the pearl. This is want Kino gave up for the pearl. He killed five men, hurt his wife, put his family in danger, His home burned down, His boat is broken (too bad to fix) , and worse of all his son dies by getting shot in the head with a gun. Which was all very important to Kino and his Family.
All of that in the end of the book made Kino relies how bad the pearl is so then Kino throws it back in the ocean. But you can see that he was not nice at all in the in end of the book.
But at the end Kino gets better by throwing the pearl back in the ocean.
So overall what Kino learned is do not love something to much as Juana said in the book.(page 39) And that is what the main lesson learned in this book "The Pearl." But is there any more lessons to be learned?
