    Collins, Suzanne. The Hunger Games. New York: Scholastic, 2008. Print
    Lem, Ellyn, and Holly Hassel. ""Killer" Katniss and "Lover Boy" Peeta." Of Bread, Blood, and
    The Hunger Games: Critical Essays on the Suzanne Collins Trilogy. By Mary Pharr and
    Leisa A. Clark. Jefferson, NC: McFarland &, 2012. 118. Print. The essay reflects on the
    characters of Katniss and Peeta and the gender roles they play in the novels. The essay
    reflects on Collinss breakthrough of successfully engaging both male and female
    readers. The essay discusses the importance of Katniss as an important figure that defies
    gender segregation (121) I found this article from one of the posted articles
    Professor Lawson shared with the class on moodle. I knew it was a trustworthy source
    because Professor Lawson stated that it was an academic source we should use. This
    essay is useful to my essay because it discusses how different Katniss is from other
    female young adult characters. I will use this to portray her individuality. I will discuss
    how unlike most girls who care about their looks and fashion sense, Katniss does not. I
    will tie this to the idea that, her lack of superficiality makes her a strong character who
    strives to maintain herself as a separate individual from the capitol and its strange
    superficial ways.
    Scott, A. O., and Manohla Dargis. "A Radical Female Hero From Dystopia." The New York
    Times. The New York Times, 07 Apr. 2012. Web. 14 Apr. 2014. This article discusses
    the big influential role the character of Katniss plays in our society. The article argues
    that Katniss is a role model for many young girls, who allows girls to view themselves as
    adventurous and heroic. The article also talks about the portrayal of Katniss and Collinss
    depiction of a strong female character that breaks from stereotypical gender driven roles.
    This article was also among the articles posted on moodle. It is an article from a well-
    respected newspaper so it was a credible trustworthy source I could use. I will use this
    article to support my argument of Katnisss individuality.
    Tan Ming Shan, Susan. "Burn With Us: Sacrificing Childhood In The Hunger Games." The Lion
    & The Unicorn 37.1 (2013): 54-73. Project MUSE. Web. 14 Apr. 2014. This essay
    analyzes the trilogy as a cultural critique. Compares the world of The Hunger Games to
    American culture. Discusses how tributes are transformed by the capitols standards of
    beauty. The obsession with celebrities both in America and Panem. It discusses the
    idea of becoming a consumer item to the capitol and how Katniss hates it. The article
    talks about the numerous amounts of child deaths within The Hunger Games and why
    this is another reason to rebel against the capitol. I found this source by searching for
    The Hunger Games on google scholar. I know that this is a credible source because it
    is from an academic journal and it has bee peer reviewed. I plan to use this article in my
    essay to talk about how similar our culture is to that of the Capitol.
