This creates commotion that makes people not know what 's happening. Animals create a theme of mystery in the book of Kingdom Keepers. Animals create this theme because they always stop the DHIs from getting to Maleficent. “But the monkeys grew daring, tightening the circle around Finn”(Ridley).

Person vs. Person occurs when there is conflict between two or more people, resulting in the movement of the plot. A given example is the trouble of the DHIs with Maleficent.

The fictional world is full of chaos, as people tend to prefer unstable theories to countless philosophies. Specifically, there is a literary shift from linearity and order to randomness and fragmentation. Consequently, Postmodernist writers understand that their works are subject to interpretation; however, they believe that the flexibility of understanding in texts is the basis for the development of innovative ideas in society.

Subsequently, the reader can make different predictions on what will occur throughout Don’t Get Caught, and the ability to predict and analyze uniquely is one of the principal ideals of Postmodernist literature.
