Question

For this essay writing assignment, your opening paragraph needs to include the following: an attention-getting opener and a thesis statement. A strong thesis establishes the central point or argument you intend to make. A statement such as "Hester Prynne is a main character of The Scarlet Letter" is not a valid thesis, because it is a statement of fact, and not something which can be argued. A stronger thesis would be one such as, "In spite of public ostracism, Hester Prynne's life demonstrates grace and courage in The Scarlet Letter."
