Compare and contrast (Firegirl and how it must feel to get treated different)

I am comparing and contrasting the book "Firegirl" and the poem called "How it must feel to be treated different". These are the same because it the book "firegirl" Jessica gets burned and she enters a new school because it's closer to the hospital. When Jessica enters the new school everyone talks about her beind her back. She does not really have friends when she first enters the school. In the poem it talks about how people get treated different from the way they look or the way they act just like Jessica. The thing that is different about the poem and story is in the end Jessica makes friends with Tom and they become really close. In the poem they are talking about how they are treated differ not there whole life how it never changes.
