My Reading Journal 4 K組 蘇郁玫

Because this two week is midterm, I didn't read many part of the novel. But although I read a little page, I still found some meaning from this novel. The little girl of this story, Pecola, has already moved to live with MacTeer family, and keep well with Claudia and Frieda. There was a scene that makes me have an emotion. It was when Frieda's mother found that three quarts of milk in the icebox has disappeared. And she knew that Claudia and Frieda hated milk, so the only one would drink the milk is Pecola. But what make me surprise wasn't Pecola drank three quarts of milk, but the reason why she want to drink so much milk. The reason is that Pecola hope drinking milk can make her skin white, so she drank so much milk. When I read this paragraph, I felt sad with Pecola. She was a pure little black girl just wanted to become a white girl. There was a big contrast between these two families. I learned many things from this novel.
