Chapter 7, Part 2

At the end of chapter 7, when Billy gave Derby a lollipop and he burst into tears, it reminded me of how we often take so many things for granted every single day. We really do not realize how much we take for granted every single day. Derby was so happy that he cried tears of joy over a single lollipop, because he had been deprived of such things for so long. This also made me think of how sometimes, it is the smallest things in life that make us happy.

  1. Gina, you couldn't be more right. Derby's lollipop makes us realize how much we take for granted today. Electricity, the roof over our heads, etc. Good connection.
