Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of Line existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress or vex her. She was the youngest of the two daughters of
a most affectionate, indulgent father, and had, in consequence of her sister’s marriage, been mistress of his house from a very early period. Her mother had died too long ago for her to have more than an indistinct remembrance of her caresses, and her place had been supplied by an excellent woman as governess, who had fallen little short of a mother in affection. Sixteen years had Miss Taylor been in Mr.Woodhouse’s family, less as a governess than a friend, very fond of both daughters, but particularly of Emma. Between them it was more the intimacy of sisters. Even before Miss Taylor had ceased to hold the nominal office of governess, the mildness of her temper had hardly allowed her to impose any restraint; and the shadow of authority being now long passed away, they had been living together as friend and friend very mutually attached, and Emma doing just what she liked; highly esteeming Miss Taylor’s judgment, but directed chiefly by her own. The real evils indeed of Emma’s situation were the power of having rather too much her own way, and a disposition to think a little too well of herself; these were the disadvantages which threatened alloy to her many enjoyments. The danger, however, was at present so unperceived, that they did not by any means rank as misfortunes with her. Sorrow came—a gentle sorrow—but not at all in the shape of any disagreeable consciousness.—Miss Taylor married. It was Miss Taylor’s loss which first brought grief. It was on the wedding day of this beloved friend that Emma first sat in mournful thought of any continuance.The wedding over and the bride-people gone, her father and herself were left to dine together, with no prospect of a third to cheer a long evening. Her father composed himself to sleep after dinner, as usual, and she had then only to sit and think of what she had lost.
The event had every promise of happiness for her friend. Mr. Weston was a man of unexceptionable character, easy fortune, suitable age and pleasant manners; and there was some satisfaction in considering with what self denying, generous friendship she had always wished and promoted the match; but it was a black morning’s work for her. The want of Miss Taylor would be felt every hour of every day. She recalled her past kindness—the kindness, the affection of sixteen years—how she had taught and how she had played with her from five years old—how she had devoted all her powers to attach and amuse her in health—and how nursed her through the various illnesses of childhood.

Here is the next part of the extract: The GirlIn a corner of the city, inside a tall, narrow house at Number 4 rue Vauborel, on the sixth and highest floor, a sightless sixteen-year-old named Marie-Laure LeBlanc kneels over a low table covered entirely with a model. The model is a miniature of the city she kneels within, and contains scale replicas of the hundreds of houses and shops and hotels within its walls. There’s the cathedral with its perforated spire, and the bulky old Château de Saint-Malo, and row after row of seaside mansions studded with chimneys. A slender wooden jetty arcs out from a beach called the Plage du Môle; a delicate, reticulated atrium vaults over the seafood market; minute benches, the smallest no larger than apple seeds, dot the tiny public squares.Marie-Laure runs her fingertips along the centimeter-wide parapet crowning the ramparts, drawing an uneven star shape around the entire model. She finds the opening atop the walls where four ceremonial cannons point to sea. “Bastion de la Hollande,” she whispers, and her fingers walk down a little staircase. “Rue des Cordiers . Rue Jacques Cartier.”In a corner of the room stand two galvanised buckets filled to the rim with water. Fill them up, her great-uncle has taught her, whenever you can. The bathtub on the third floor too. Who knows when the water will go out again.Her fingers travel back to the cathedral spire. South to the Gate of Dinan. All evening she has been marching her fingers around the model, waiting for her great-uncle Etienne, who owns this house, who went out the previous night while she slept, and who has not returned. And now it is night again, another revolution of the clock, and the whole block is quiet, and she cannot sleep.

Chapter 1
April Raintree is a personal narrative. April is the narrator, and she gives us our first glimpse into the earliest moments of her life. She also introduces us to her family. The picture she paints is very bleak. It may, however, give some insight into the possible reasons for April’s actions later in the novel.
Describe the hardships of the young girls that depict the harsh insensitivity and/or discriminatory attitudes of their family, government agencies, and the Church.
The narrator introduces many stereotypes regarding First Nations peoples. These biases and assumptions seem to be already internalized by April even though she is only six years old. Discuss how April’s feelings might impact her future choices and identity.
The author depicts a close and supporting relationships between April and Cheryl. This relationship forms the dramatic tension through which other events in the text are explored. What might happen that could make this relationship more vulnerable? What could happen that could strengthen it?
Chapter 2-7
These chapters focus on the diverse experiences and developing identities of both April and Cheryl as they grow up in foster homes. The question of parents’ rights to their child’s health and well-being form an important sub-theme in the novel.
Compare April and Cheryl’s foster-home situations, and consider how the experiences of each shape her own views about her personal and cultural identity.
April’s experiences with the DeRosier family provide an insight into some of the major issues regarding foster care. What are some of the measures that have been taken and/or still need to be taken to protect children’s health and well-being in our country/province?
Give examples of prejudice or discrimination that Cheryl and April experience in either their foster homes or schools, and describe their reactions to these situations. What experiences have you had that are similar? Explain how your reactions to these experiences were similar or different.
Chapter 8-10
These chapters focus on life after foster care. April chooses a marriage that promised economic and social stability and security. Cheryl becomes actively involved with the Friendship Centre to reach out to other Aboriginal youth who need help to find their way.
April enters into a marriage that promises economic and social security, because she craves stability. Yet, the marriage fails. What are the factors that contribute to the failure of her marriage? How does this experience change April in either a positive or negative way?
Cheryl’s activism in support of the First Nations and Metis peoples is often regarded as a positive outcome of her early introduction to Aboriginal issues through her education. Would you say that her education was adequate? How has the representation of Aboriginal issues in schools changed even over your school career? What do you think is still needed to provide an unbiased portrayal of Aboriginal history and culture? Is this even possible? -
