                      In the drummer boy of shiloh the conflict was kind of an internal conflict. But in the end he overcame his fear because of the speech that the general had gave him. The theme of the story is very inspiring. Ray Bradbury did a great job with the conflict and creating an inspiring theme. The theme is that you need to overcome your fears in life. But something to me should have changed in the story. The one thing i would change is the very end.

                     One thing that I would change in the drummer boy of shiloh would be the very end becasue that should have been inspiring too. If i were to rewrite the very end i make it into something that would connect with the outside world like the wars now or to connect with the speech the general gave in the story. They can also write it into the way the soldiers in the army feel before they go to war. Also they can show how people outside of the story that are not soldiers who would feel if they were in this situation. I would change it because it should reflect on life and how people feel about the situation.

                     The theme is very inspiring. The theme is that you should overcome your fears in a life crisis. His fear was that he was scared beacuse he was about to go onto the battlefield where he can get hurt or even killed. But he did overcome his fears in the end of the book after the generals speech. That was the bravest thing he did in the story.

                     The conclusion is that the theme is very important to a story. Its very important to the story even the drummer boy of shiloh. Also i would change something in the book which is the very end of the book. So iconclude that iwould change something in the book and that the theme is very important to a book.
