Literary Journal Number 1

Write down your thoughts--after reading the opening chapters of the book. How do your impressions change (or do they) after reading half of the book? Do you feel any differently after finishing the book? Would you read the book again?

-After reading the 1st chapter I am realizing that this is going to be way different from "To Kill A Mockingbird", I say this because in "To Kill A Mockingbird" the African-Americans in the story are acting way different than the African Americans in "Roll Of Thunder, Hear My Cry", In "Roll..." the African-Americans respect themselves and are more proud to be black than the blacks in "TKAM" But this could also be happening because in both stories we are in 2 different times in the Civil Rights Era.

-No Reactions to Chapter 2

-Chapter 3: Tom Robinson: Rape AS J.H. Berry: Flirting

-Chapter 4: This chapter shows the responsibility of Stacy, I could never do that for any of my friends, sorry!

-CONTINUED AND SHOULD BE FINISHED BY TOMORROW
