The theme through Catching Fire is to stand up for what you believe in. In the first book Katniss and Peeta are the last two alive and they threaten to eat these poison berries so that no one wins the hunger games. The capitol steps up and stops them before they kill themselves and allow them to be co winners. Now in catching fire as Katniss is on her champions tour many people use a whistle she used to talk to a young girl named rue. Many people also put up two fingers to salute Katniss on sticking up to the Capital. Now at the end of the book Katniss finds out many of the districts have had uprisings against the guards and are declaring war on the capital so they can gain their independence. The quote “A mockingjay is a creature the Capitol never intended to exist” this shows Katniss is starting the uprising. In the first book Katniss had a mockingjay pin and used the whistle I was talking about earlier. Katniss is a mockingjay and she’s the symbol of the resistance. At the end of the book Katniss is picked up on a hovercraft to find out in 7 districts there have been uprisings, and she realizes she just started the liberation movement. This shows the theme of sticking up for what you believe in.
