Identifying Conflicts in Little Things Are Big
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
2. Identify what type of conflict
3. Explain if and how each conflict is resolved

Next, rewrite the ending of Little Things Are Big so that Colon approaches the woman, addressing one of these conflicts. (How does the woman respond to Colon's actions? What impact does this have on Colon?)
