Mrs. Dubose
I saw Jem and Scout pass by today on there way home from school. Those kids should be more kind to an older lady like me. Im always nice to them, well when im in the mood. Those kids always think of me as peril and cantankerous but i contradict. One day Jem came by to talk, i was feeling a little different and a little angry. I told Jem that Atticus was not any better that niggers and trash he works for. I really didn't mean to say such a hurtful thing i was just on some medication and i was not feeling normal but i tried to inconsporarie it. The kid got very angry with me and decided to destroy all my camellia bushes. I think he should deserve a punishment but i was not inaudible. The punishment that was given to him was that he had to come to my house everyday for a month and read to me. Scout decides to come along, Jem could use the extra help. Every session is longer than the one before, Jem deserves that kind of punishment for what he did. The sessions end quickly then Jem is free to go on with his life. I bet he really dislikes me now. A month after he's sessions where over i got even more sick, I died later that month. After Jem finds out the truth of what was really going on and the reason behind the different emotions i was having he felt uncomfortable, he was very upset at himself that he treated me with such bad manners, he didn't know what was going on. After my death, Jem felt so terrible for ruining my camellia bushes he gave a box to Atticus to give to her, in lies a single camellia.
I liked hearing a post from the point of view of Ms. Dubose, because the book didn't let us in on how she was feeling. In the beginning of the post you used the vocabulary words very well and it enhanced your writing, but later on some of the words didn't make sense where you placed them. I like how you continued the story even after she died, to sow how her death affected Jem! Great job!

ReplyDeleteI really liked reading this blog post! But again, make sure you read over your work, because there are a lo of missed spelled words and grammar errors. Also while I was reading this I felt you were not writing completly in her perspective, because after "you" died you were noting things that happened AFTER you died. Very well done just remember what I said, keep it up!!!!
