Chapter 8- Ma Joad
I had to go back and write about this chapter because I absolutely love how Ma Joad was introduced. I admire the way she accepted a man to join her family at the dinner table, with not a single hesitation, or judgment. All she needed to know is that a man was hungry, and asking for food. I especially like how her physical character was described. Bare feet and all, I fell in love with how she leads her family, and knows that if she shows any sign of distress her family is directly affected. Ma Joad is the most admirable character so far... in my opinion ;)

I totally agree with you. Ma Joad is my favorite character so far in the book. She seems so caring and is like a mother figure to anyone she comes across. She even reminds me of my grandmother.
ReplyDeleteI also like to add on how the whole family respects her opinions and thoughts; she is the anchor of the family.
