Patience and Observation
What role do patience and observation play in Brian's survival? How do Brian's powers of patience and observation change in the course of the book?
I think that pantience and observering helps him because when he woke up he was hungry and saw a flock of birds landging. So he thought they were getting food, so he went where they landed and found berries.
Patience and observing play a very important role in the story. Being patient helps Brian to not get frustrated and observing helps him to get to know nature and everything in it better. In the beginning of the book Brian is not as patient and observing as he was in the middle and the end of the story.
