Favorite Part Of Thank You M'am

Mr. Romero please grade me on my Transitional words, and introduction!! Did you read the story "Thank You, M'am" by Langston Hughes? Well, I did and I enjoyed it a lot. My favorite part would have to consist of the climax. You want to know why? Then read on to find out!

First off, let me tell you what the climax is. The climax is kind of the turning point of the story. It's the part with the most action or where a character has to make a very important decision. From then own the story kind of settles down.

Now, that we have some facts about the climax, I'm going to tell you why I love it sooo much. This climax was different from others. This climax occurred at a quiet point in the story, usually it happens at a hyper and exiting time, but it didn't. The climax happens when Roger, one of the most important characters, had the chance to run out of Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones(the other major character)house with her huge pocketbook. I love this because it reminds me of a past experience that my friends and I encountered.

Next, let's talk about my experience. My friends and I were somewhere in which we had no business being. It just so happens that one of our friends Jamaican mother was there. Why she was there we didn't know, but what we did know is that we had to get out before she saw us. Guess what, it was too late,she spotted one of us. The rest of us could've ran but we didn't want to leave our friend to get in trouble alone. So, we all hesitantly showed our faces. She made us all get into her car and took us home all the while lecturing and making us feel bad.

In the end, we found out she wasn't going to tell our parents. So, because of the fact we didn't run, we didn't get in trouble. Just like Roger who didn't run and received ten dollars from Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones. Now you know favorite part of the story "Thank You M'am" by Langston Hughes. So now can go read the book and tell me yours!!
