English 102 MWF 11-11:50 I really enjoyed the story What You Pawn I will Redeem. It was very well written and kept my attention throughout the story. It is amazing that he walked by a pawnshop and immediately recognized his grandmother’s regalia without ever seeing it other than in pictures. I enjoy reading about Native American cultures and beliefs. There was a lot of humor in this story and Jackson definitely did not take himself too seriously. I think the 1st person narrator was very important

Sabrina Bryan once said “You can do anything as long as you have the passion‚ the drive‚ the focus‚ and the support.” I think that my passion for hunting all leads back to my father showing me how to hunt and supporting me to keep pursuing this sport as I have gotten older. I have been hunting with my dad since I was eight years old. Although I have been hunting for that long‚ I did not harvest my first animal until I was thirteen. There are so many reasons to why I love hunting‚ but some main reasons

The inclusion of pictures in the textbook really allows a reader to get a better understanding of the author before they read the stories. I found “Love in L.A.” to be particularly compelling. The text leading up to the short story provides the reader with insight to Gilb’s life. Gilb’s life is that of a typical working class American. This knowledge provides insight into the meaning and motive behind “Love in L.A

The book of James was written in the time span between 48 AD and 49 AD. James is all about just displaying

of the stories he was telling us a lie? “Her name was Agnes‚ and she died of breast cancer when I was fourteen” (73). “When I was sixteen‚ my grandmother told me a story about World War II” (76). Was this all a lie or was the author trying to show that this man was really drunk and couldn’t remember everything from back then. Or proving his own point in the story when he said drunken natives were liars. I also was thinking that this man would spend mostly all of his earnings on things like lottery
