Please reread the last paragraph on page 128 (which continues on page 129) and the first two paragraphs on page 129. Why was Mary Ellen furious with father? Do you think she had a right to feel that way? Please explain your thinking
clearly and
thoroughly.
Mary Eleen was furious because she just found out that her mom was pregnant. She also is furious at him because he risked the family of getting sick from the mountain fever. I think she should have felt that way because I wouldn't want to get sick if the sick people were near me. Also I wouldn't want to know a baby was coming because that would make me feel sad if the baby died because of the weather or because of the food they didn't have for the baby.
ReplyDeleteMary Ellen was furious because her dad just told her that her mom was pregnant, and that her dad put her at risk of catching fever. I think she had the right to feel that way because if baby caught the fever it would make her feel sad and depressed and it might stop them from their travels. They also might not have enough provisions for the extra person on their trip.
ReplyDeleteI think Mary Ellen was furious because her dad told her that her mom is pregnant,and that they could get sick.I really think she has the right to do that because the baby without right care could get sick and/or die.
ReplyDeleteMary Ellen was furious with her dad because he didn't tell her that her mom is pregnant I think she had the right to be mad at her dad.
ReplyDeleteMary Ellen was furious with her father because she found out mother was having a baby and Father had put the family in danger of catching mountain fever. I think she had the right to be furious with him because she is really excited about having a brother/sister and she is mad because they can die.
ReplyDeleteMary Ellen was furious with her father because her mom was pregnant and then she thought about Daisy and how her dad didn't hear her so, now that she thought about that she is angry with her father.
