What should you consider in order to find the theme in a piece of literature?

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information: You should examine the behavior of the main characters and see what, if any, lesson they have learned in their struggles. Look for elements that are emphasized in the story. Consider what the story values in humans and life. When you put all of that together, you should have an idea of the theme the author is trying to relate.
