The Kite Runner

Bullying....

What is a bully? There is no specific definition for this, but there are plenty of examples of what one can be. In the book The Kite Runner there are many examples to give on this topic.

Amir is a prime example of a bully. He bullies his half brother Hassan, because Hassan can not read or write. So instead of teaching him, he reads to him and if he does not do something he says he uses that aganist them.

Hassan is also bullied by the village kids. The bullying starts with Amir and then Hassan takes up for him and it all goes on Hassan. In the end, tragic things happen.

Amir is bullied yes, but Amir is also the walking shadow of a bully. It may at first appear that he is not, but the way he treated Hassan is the perfect example of a bully.
