    The major event(s) of the book Monster surrounds the main characters involvement in his murder case and trial. The minor events contribute to this event by providing details of the actual crime, the relationships (or lack thereof) that are shared between the protagonist and the other characters - specifically his attorney, and the internal struggles that he encounters during his mental maturation. As the novel concludes and the main character's plight is resolved, the reader comes to appreciate the moral lesson that Myers provides as the story comes full-circle and all is made right. Although the main character is released from jail as a free man, the reader is forced to recollect the events that have taken place as well as the fact that he entered the judicial system as an innocent boy and his transformation has been completed.
