Many works of literature develop around conflict. Characters may face several types of conflict including self vs. self, self vs. person, self vs. society, and self vs. nature. In Little Things Are Big Colon struggles with both internal and external conflicts. Choose three different types of conflict that Jesus Colon faces over the course of the story. In the table below,

1. Describe the conflict
