Two rivals with the same goal. In a book called "The Wednesday Wars", a boy's father, Mr. Hoodhood, and a girl's father, Mr. Kowalski, are two architects who work for the same thing and he same thing.They are
the same because they are both architects and they want their models to be built as the new school. Their differences are that Mr. Kowalski is the more selfish one and Mr. Hoodhood is the smarter one. Mr. Kowalski is selfish because he was the one who copied off Mr. Hoodhood's scale model for the highschool design and he knew it was Mr. Hoodhood's yet he still copied as if it were his own. Mr. Hoodhood
is the smarter one compared to him because I bet he wouldn't of done the same thing and if he would, he would've asked Holling to ask Meryl Lee for her father's drawing. I think Mr. Kowalski should be a good
sport about this. I can understand that their work means a lot, especially the money that they earn, but at least play fair. Instead of just copying over Mr. Hoodhood's drawing, Mr. Kowalski's drawing would've been pretty good compared to Mr. Hoodhood's and maybe his drawing would actually get built as the new school design. But who knows, maybe Mr. Kowalski might have a chance at winning against Mr.
Hoodhood further in the book. But, that's just my opinion.
