pages 34-60
While Angelou describes more and more about the store and how busy it always is, I can't help but to think that the Store is a symbol for her hard work. She always speaks of the Store in a proud way, it is the spot in town where everyone gathers after a hard days work to talk as a community. Angelou explains Reverend Thomas, my first impression of the man was that he sure does use people a lot for being a preacher. She says he is always making it in time for dinner and most likely stays at their house on weekends solely for Momma's Sunday morning breakfast. So far, I am not only learning more and more about Maya, but of her family as well. I love how strong and kind Momma is. Her personality makes me smile and laugh, and she is quite clever when it comes to dealing with the kids.The way she lends money without hesitation shows that nothing is an excuse for not doing all you can for someone. Even in hard economic times. If I were Maya Angelou or any character in the book right now, I would have great respect for Mrs. Henderson.
