Puss in Boots: The Last Wish Movie Guide | Questions | Google Slides (PG - 2022) challenges students to explore character development, symbolism and word meanings. Discuss if Perrito has what it takes to be a therapy dog and the effects that pets have on students. Identify how major characters change throughout the movie and how they come to the conclusion that they don’t need a magic wish to be satisfied with their lives. Finally, evaluate the Ethical Bug’s mantra, “There is good in all people.” Determine how this belief would change a society and if it would come with any potential dangers.
