Similarities and Differences

Some of the similarities between the Mosquito Coast and The Poisonwood Bible are that in both of them, both fathers use physical abuse towards their wives. Both fathers are also crazy. in the Mosquito Coast, there are four kids and a set of twins as well as in the Poisonwood Bible there were four kids and set of twins. Harrison Ford who is Allie Fox in the movie is really crazy because at the end, he purposely burned down the church. One difference between the Mosquito Coast and The Poisonwood Bible is that Allie was alll about bringing industry to a society that wasn't even touched. Another relation between the Mosquito Coast and the Poisonwood Bible is that Mr. Haddie dies in the Mosquito Coast and Ruth May Price dies in the Poisonwood Bible. Mr. Haddie and Anatole are also like the same person. One last similarity that I feel is pretty important is Allies invention which could be a bad thing or a good thing because it was llike the bible; it could have a positive effect or a negative effect. The inventions negative effect was the three invading bad guys but the positive effect was that it brought air conditioning.
