Example of a peel paragraph about Martha from the novel abomination:

Throughout the novel 'Abomination' Martha is bullied. An example of this is the incident with the girls throwing water into the stall soaking Martha. When she came out of the stall they punched her in the stomach and called her a slut. This made Martha feel angry and upset. Unsurprisingly this is a example of physical bullying by students toward Martha. There was a imbalance of power between Martha and her bullies because there was one of her and three of them. Another way Martha experiences suffering is at the hands of her parents and the Church of the Righteous.
