Question :How does Mr. Lamb try and convince Derry that there is no essential difference between them?

The correct answer is -In the story “On the Face of It” by Susan Hill, Mr. Lamb tries to convince Derry that there is no essential difference between them by engaging him in a conversation and finding common ground. Mr. Lamb tells Derry that he, too, has been “scarred” in life and has faced challenges. He talks about his own experience of being burned in a fire and how it changed his life. Mr. Lamb also emphasizes the importance of looking beyond the surface level and seeing people for who they are on the inside. He tells Derry that “everybody’s the same when you come down to it, in their hearts and souls.” Through this conversation, Mr. Lamb tries to build a connection with Derry and show him that they are not so different after all.
