Have you have been an outcast? Neglected by everyone because the way you act and how you look like. Also they despise you because you don't like to do some stuff that the other people do. Also have you ever been robbed of the credit you really deserved.
The note that I thought about was that how Templeton gets neglected by everyone else. Everyone despises how Templeton acts. Everyone thinks that he is dirty, smelly, and deserves to be an outcast. But Templeton can't help it because it is his rat way. Wilbur was new to the barn but everyone accepted him as a member of the barn. But no one wants to accept Templeton as amember of the barn.
Templeton seems like the character that is the outcast and no one likes him. But he will help out Wilbur in some way. He is not really a bad guy. He is the guy who helps the main character in a way that the other barn animals can't do. Templeton has been helping Wilbur. The time when he stored the rotten egg under the trough and Avery broke it. It saved Charlotte from getting captured by Avery. The barn animals gave the credit to goose who laid the egg. But I think Templton really deserved the respect because he is the one who saved the egg and placed it under the trough. The goose would've discarded it if she didn't give it to Templeton.
I feel bad for Templeton because he was the messenger boy. He brang the words from old newspaper clippings. When Templeton didn't want to do something the barn animals will tell him something that will change his mind. Like when the old sheep told him that if Wilbur dies how will he get his food. But how did Tempeton survive before Wilbur came to the barn. I think Templeton should be treated more fairly even if he is a rat.
