How gross would it be to eat maggots?
Well Jeanette and her family had to eat ham filled with maggots because their
mother couldn’t afford to feed her fresh meat.
I’m surprised that Jeanette and her siblings
didn’t get sick when they ate the ham.
If I had seen that ham, I would be sick to my
stomach. For Jeanette and her siblings
to eat the rotten ham is even worse.
It is sad that they lived in such poverty. I feel like my life is pretty good when I
read this book
Scott, this is a really sold post. You ask a question, you tell what surprised you, what you would do if it were you and feelings you have after reading about that. Well done here!
ReplyDeleteI agree that people think their life is pretty good when they read what happened to Jeannette in this book. You might want to consider adding that Their mom told them to pick out the maggots in the ham. So they saw the maggots and picked them out so they didn't have to eat them. But ya that ham was no safe to eat. They might have been sick afterwards but Jeannette might have left it out or didn't remember it.
