Stephon is writing an essay that compares and contrasts characters from two different texts. The two characters he is comparing and contrasting are Manjiro from Heart of a Samurai and William, the narrator of The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind. One similarity he notes is that Manjiro and William both show creativity. Which details from the texts suggest that both William and Manjiro are creative? William harnesses the wind to create electricity; Manjiro develops a way to cook food without fire. William finds a way to learn without attending school; Manjiro creates a more effective way of husking rice. William works very hard to build his own windmill; Manjiro devises a plan to get himself and the others home. William uses sun and mirrors to create fire; Manjiro finds a way to escape the “barbarians.”
