Children of the corn

The book children of the corn is a book about to people Bert and Vicky theses two couple were traveling on a highway by the corn field. Bert then hits a boy on the highway because Vicky distracts him. He then pulls over finds a brief case in the corn field. He takes both the kid and the briefcase and puts him in the trunk and the briefcase in the car. Bert through out the whole book feels like he is being watched. The couple are deciding on where to take him and if they should report it. Bert wants to record it because he wants to make sure that his family finds out if they're family member is dead or alive. Vicky just wants to leave his body there because she is already scared and wants to leave and put all that behind them. Then the couple end up in a town because of miss leading signs has been pointing them to a ghost town. The couple then gets surrounded by children killers and they have to fight to survive. I think the theme of the book is that don't believe everything a person says. I think this is the theme because the leader of the cult for the kids tells all of them to kill their parents because god said. I think Stephen King woke up that morning with a urge to scare people with the people fear less children. I think he also wanted people to take a step back and really visualize kids a different way. The book used suspense because it makes you feel like you are in the car with them and you are being watched. Children of the corn used repetition a lot because the book was in a constant loop with it always mentioning religion and Bert and Vicky always fighting. The tone seemed dark because who really wants to make a book about kids being killed and kids killing their parents. This book used a lot of irony because the whole book the couple were having an argument about what to do with body and they would never listen to each other. The book also used a couple of things that we can relate to. For example the book takes place by the cornfield most of the time and we all know that corn fields are never a place where something good happens.
