She did that because she wanted to help him .she started to care . She want to be nice to him. She feels bad for him.

I think Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones reacts to Roger the way she does because she is not a person who judges other people and is caring. The reason why because she could have been like “eww” but instead she wondering his face was dirty and why he was trying to take her bag. Another reason why because she cared enough to help the boy and somebody will just like call the police or something. This all shows why I think Luella Bates Washington Jones reacts to Roger the way she does.

# data[].attributes.body
I think she reacted the way she did because she is a person that will make a bad situation into something good. A person that will do good deeds for anyone even if they’re bad.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones reacts to Roger the way she does is she thinks it’s wieard that she let the boy in her house. I think this way because she doesn’t do anything to him. One example, she barely talks to him. Another example, Mrs. Luella gives the boy a bucket of water and doesn’t do or say anything. That is why I think Mrs.

# data[].attributes.body
Why I think Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones reacts to Roger the way she does is because later on in the story when she brings Roger to her house she had told him that she had also done things when she was younger and she had also said that she wouldn’t even tell god about the things she did if he hadn’t already known.
She had also reacted like she as his mother. She had scolded him and told him off and taught him right from wrong. That is why I think Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones react like that.

# data[].attributes.body
This is why I believe Mrs.Jones reacted to roger the way she did. I think she reacts to him the way she did because she saw him with a dirty face and he told her that no one was in his house. I also believe she reacts the way she does because she probably feels bad for him that he is all dirty. I also believe that she said you have a dirty face instead of calling the cops because she probably went through the same thing like having no one at home. That is why I think she reacted that way to Roger.

# data[].attributes.body
Because he doesn’t have a family to care for him and she has been there too

# data[].attributes.body
I think Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones acts the way she dose because she has done similar things to what the boy did. I think this because in the text it says that “ You thought I was going to say, but I didn’t snatch people’s pocketbooks. Well, I wasn’t going to say that”.This is hinting that Mrs. Luella has done similar things like him. Another piece of evidence is when she says “I have done things to.” This means that she has done more than steal pocketbooks

# data[].attributes.body
I think she treated the boy the way she did because she thought of the boy as her when she was younger she even states. “Um-hum! You thought I was going say but , didn’t you? You thought I was going to say, but I didn’t snatch people’s pocketbooks. Well, I wasn’t going to say that.” Pause. Silence. “I have done things, too, which I would not tell you, son-neither tell God, if he didn’t already know.

# data[].attributes.body
She reacts to him like that because she sees that he is just a kid in need. She figures that he’s been through a hard time and decided stop help him

# data[].attributes.body
I think Mrs. Liella Bates Washington Jones acted the way she did because she wanted to help the kid. One reason why I think she wanted to help the kid because he didn’t have any body at home to take care of him. In addition I think she also help him by inviting him into her house to clean his face and give him so food. In conclusion this is why I think mrs.jones invited him into her house.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the way Luella Reacted to Roger the way she did is because she wanted to give him a chance to the boy because I think when she realized that Roger had a dirty face she might of thought that he might not have that much of care at his house, so she wanted to give him a lesson for what he has done , she wanted to act as a mother at show him what is right or wrong.

# data[].attributes.body
She reacted to Roger like that because she felt bad for him. She didn’t know how his life was but she knew that it had to be a reason why he was trying to take her bag. She took him in her house and gave him food because she’s a caring person and she wasn’t going to turn him in because he’s just a little boy and he was very respectful and he said sorry to her. This is why

# data[].attributes.body
I think the reason why Roger didn’t run when he had the chance is because Mrs.Luella gave him shelter and food.One reason is Mrs.Luella brought Roger inside.Onther reason is Mrs.Luella gave Roger food,told him to eat.Roger didn’t wanted to be mistrusted because if Roger takes the pocketbook Mrs.Luella won’t trust Roger.One reason is Roger thinks Mrs.Luella is watching him.Onther reason is Mrs.Luella won’t give anything to Roger.

# data[].attributes.body
He did run because he was never tread so nice before. Also he wants food. And he did not want to get caught.

# data[].attributes.body
She told him that she would take care of him and she would make him her son

# data[].attributes.body
This is why I believe Roger didn’t run away when he had the chance to and why he didn’t want to be misunderstood by Mrs.Jones. I believe he didn’t want to run away because she already knows how the boy looks like and if he runs away she can call the cops on him. I also believe Roger didn’t want to run away because he didn’t want to get called by the cops and go to jail for trying to steal Mrs.Jones pocketbook. I believe Roger didn’t want to be misunderstood because if he saw her then she would probably give him a dirty look. That is why I believe

# data[].attributes.body
When given the chance, Roger doesn’t run because he had realized that his actions were wrong after the speech that Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones gave him, he realized that if he wanted something he should’ve just asked instead of snatching something out of an unsuspecting victims hands. Roger does not want to be mistrusted now because after he screwed up the first time he “met” or interacted with the woman. That is why I think he doesn’t run, it is also why I think he does not want to be mistrusted

# data[].attributes.body
I think the reason why Roger didn’t run because she didn’t want Mrs. Jones to the call the cops for stealing her purse. I think he didn’t want Ms. Jones to misjudged him because he didn’t say goodbye or saying thankful.

# data[].attributes.body
When given the chance he didn’t want run probably because she Gave him one chance I think that he thinks he runs he’s gonna feel ashamed for himself because he has a perfect good chance to run, but he felt like if he would run she would be ashamed or he would get in trouble and Roger, probably didn’t want any more of this because it’s already bad.

# data[].attributes.body
He doesn’t run because he doesn’t want to be mistrusted and he really wants the sneakers. He also just wants people to love and trust him.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Roger didn’t run because he was gonna get food and he also knows that she probably dealt with the same struggle in life.

# data[].attributes.body
I think

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Roger didn’t run because the woman was offering to feed him and he probably didn’t have any food at home.

# data[].attributes.body
Roger didn’t run because the lady was kind to him. She gave him food she let him wash his face she told him about how when she was little she didn’t get everything she wanted and it made the boy

# data[].attributes.body
This is what I think of Mrs.Jones saying “shoes got by devilish ways will burn your feet”. I think what this means is when people steal money and buy shoes with it they would probably feel bad for doing that. They would also feel bad for buying something with money that they didn’t even earn. I also believe she says that because a devilish way is stealing and he tried to steal and buy shoes with it. That is what I thought about what Mrs.Jones said.

# data[].attributes.body
Roger doesn’t run because maybe he wants to find out what will Mrs. Luella will do to him. Roger doesn’t want to be mistrusted now because he wants to be trusted and be good. I think this way because Roger wants to change and be trusted with Mrs. Luella. That is why Roger doesn’t run and doesn’t want to be mistrusted now.

# data[].attributes.body
I think when Roger didn’t run because because he new he had a chance. For example when Roger had the chance to run he  didn’t he looked at the door but he didn’t want to because the ladie was being nice to him. In addition when the ladie lefted her purse with him he chose to sit way from it so it won’t take anything.

# data[].attributes.body
I think what she means by this is that wanting to get something that you really want can corrupt you and make you do anything for it.

# data[].attributes.body
I think what Mrs.Jones when’s by that is that, that would be stealing and it’s a crime and it wouldn’t feel right he sinned by stealing from other people.

P.s I don’t want to write anymore

# data[].attributes.body
She means that you shouldn’t steal for shoes it not right

# data[].attributes.body
I think what Mrs.jones mean is if you want a shoe really bad but you can’t offord it then it will make you steal things.Roger tried to steal Mrs.Luella purse.

# data[].attributes.body
She means that he try to get the money for the shoes in a bad way. And when he gets the shoes he will feel bad for trying to steal from a inacont person.

# data[].attributes.body
What I think Mrs. Jones means when she says that “shoes got by devilish ways will burn your feet is that since the first time they met, Roger had try to steal something from Mrs. Jones she’s trying to tell him that since he wants a pair of shoes stealing isn’t the way to get what you want. That is what I think Mrs. Jones means.

# data[].attributes.body
Mrs. Jones is basically saying that you’ll feel guilty of how you got it.

I think Mrs.Luella react the way she did to Roger because
