George and Lennie are always going from farm to farm, looking for work to fulfill their dream. For George, it was having a piece of land all to himself, where he could have a little house and a garden, and do whatever he wanted, when he wanted. For Lennie, it was just being with George, helping him and getting to take care of the rabbits that he and George would have on their little piece of land. The barley, as the background picture, represents the farms that they worked at on their way to success. The big rabbit in the middle represents their dream. But not just theirs, however. It also represents the dream of all Americans at that time, the Great Depression. That's the reason the rabbit is so big. I put a picture of Lennie and George in the middle with their backs turned because it makes it seem like they are looking forward, toward the future, which they are doing throughout the whole book. I chose to put those two quotes on the poster because the book is truly about George and Lennie's friendship and how they overcome many obsticles.
