I think that the whole story talks about Lennie and George's relationship mostly refering to George having to look after Lennie when he shouts out "Lennie" most of the times and George has control over Lennie when he says "Give it to me" a few times with the so innocent pets Lennie owns. It is also shown that George is protective over Lennie where "George broke in" in front of the boss in order to make sure Lennie does not mess up anything in front of their new job. All these quotes so far from the book proves that George is in charge of both of them which shows that ironically Lennie is "large" and "slow" but his brain is refered to his name "Small". This allows us to notice that Lennie does not have a proper mental ability to think ahead of what will happen and this shows a great quality of Lennies character and why he gets in trouble. A great aspect of style the author has used is how Lennie is compared to a "bull" where George says that Lennie is "strong as a bull". This comparison shows firstly that Lennie is strong physically and bulls are aggressive as well as they like red. When Curley's wife wore "red" dress, this shows that Lennie likes "red" and there is a hint of trouble. Another aspect of style I think is really useful is how the author has used Lennie as a forgetful minded person where he forgets past quite easily as he repeats asking George of what has happened in the past. This style makes readers understand what has happened in the past and why George is so protective over Lennie as well as "red" dress has been mentioned in the past as well and why they were forced to flee. "Like you always do" is what George says to Lennie and this makes us think that Lennie is always the cause for problems where he was compared to a "bear" when Lennie often says "live in a cave" and this shows that "bear" lives in a "cave" and "bearhugs" are deadly but teddy bears are cute which exactly explains the character of who Lennie is. This also shows why George explains Lennie as a trouble maker.

I hope this helped all of you with your revision.
