How do the narrator and her mother view flying? Cite evidence from the text to support your answer.

Answers

To answer your question, I would describe the author's view of flying as a positive one that may be described as "liberating".

Throughout the text, the narrator describes being an avid fan of Supergirl, a superhero commonly known to have the ability to fly. The author references Supergirl's ability to fly more than any other. From this, we can infer that her view of flying is a positive one.

During the story, the author makes remarks such as:

"From up there, over the rooftops, i could see everything""I had a recurring dream in those days"

In reference to flying, which can lead the reader to believe that she finds the thought of flying as a liberating experience.

The text does not offer direct insights as to the views of her mother, however, we can often use even the smallest of context clues to infer information about a story. In this story, for example, the author mentions that her mother chose to buy her princess-themed furniture, despite knowing her love for comic books about Supergirl. This may imply that her mother did not share her enthusiasm for flying or comic books.
