Tied brother up... I taught herself to walk

# data[].attributes.body
And then one hot day I tied his hands and feet while he was sleeping. I would make him stay with me.

Then I did what I should have done to start with. I taught myself to walk.

The scene where she tied her brother up is important because she feels alone and has no one to talk to. I believe that she loves her brother and wants to spend time with him. When she decides to teach herself to walk, I think she will be FREE

# data[].attributes.body
The cabinet was a cubby under the sink. The pipe dripped sometimes, so the cabinet was always damp and smelly.

I thought Mam taking my hand to help me walk down the stairs. I thought of her leading me out on the street.

# data[].attributes.body
to walk I had to put my bad foot to the ground. I had to put all my weight on it,and pick my other foot off the ground,and not fall down from my lack of balance or from the searing pain.

I stood by the chair that first day,wobbling.I slowly shifted some of my weight from my left foot to my right.I gasped.

Ada try to walk but Ada right foot is broke

# data[].attributes.body
I began that very day. I pulled myself up to the seat of my chair, and I put both feet onto the floor. My good left foot. My bad right one. I straightened my knees, and grasping the back of the chair, I stood.

Can't" Jamie said. "When the shop man saw me he chased me out. Said he didn't need dirty beggars stealin' his fruit and he ran me off  with a broom

The scene where she is trying to get herself to walk she keeps falling and gets back up but after a couple try's she starts to hurt again and she goes to her room and lays on her bed.

The scene where Jamie steels food for Ada Mam gets mad at both of them and tells Ada to get in the cabinet and she always abuses her and is mean to her and shes still lonely.

# data[].attributes.body
To walk I had to put my bad foot to the ground. i had to pull all my weight on it, and put my other foot off the ground.

I was caught. I couldn't take a step, not without giving away my secret. But Mam stared at me stared me with a glittering eye. "Getting too big for your britches, ain't you?" she said. "Get down on your knees and get into that cabinet."

# data[].attributes.body
I stood by the chair first day, wobbling. I slowly shifted some of my weight from my left foot to right. I gasped. Maybe it wouldn`t have been so bad if I`d been walking all along. Maybe the little curled-up bone in my ankle would have been used to it. Maybe the thin skin covering them would have been tougher.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Ada was getting smacked and hurt or not getting treated right. this is important because she does something because of it.
2.her brother gets older and starts going outside and he is not with her
3. Ada started to teach herself how to walk this is important because she will possibly be able to go to the country side with her brother. and be able to go outside

# data[].attributes.body
1. If I could walk maybe Mam would not be be so ashamed of my crippled foot this detail shows that Mam does not want the world to see Adas foot.

2.  Mam smacked me hard, my head snapped back against the chair leg. This detail is important because it shows what Mam is doing to Ada.

3. My right foot was small and twisted so that bottom pointed skyward all the toes in the air the ankle didn't work right. This detail is important because it is describes Adas foot.

# data[].attributes.body
My three ideas are
1 She is treated badly because it says that she was smacked several times this is important because you need to have proper care or you could not survive.

2 She is like a slave because it says that she went and made mam some bread and dripping and then mam said to make some for Jamie and if there was some left left throw it out the window to her friend this is important because just because she is your kid does not mean she has to work for you as a cook or made.

3 She feels like she is in a prison because she does not get treated right she has to cook for her and clean and unless mam needs her she can not leave her room this is important because if you look at it with a positive feeling it is because she could be protecting her but it could also be negative because she is locked away.

# data[].attributes.body
Ada is treated like a slave for Mam  because she says " You'd better be making my tea" as if it is a maid and not her daughter.

Mam did not care for Ada's health because she says " And if there's  any left you can throw it out the window" she seems like she does not care is Ada eats the food or throws it out.

Mam hurts/abuses Ada because she has a disability and when she tried to go adventure Mam found out and beat her until her shoulders bled.

# data[].attributes.body
The first key detail is when Ada gets smacked by Mam and Ada says that when she got smacked she said it was really hard so her Mam is hurting her but not her brother Jamie. Second detail is not getting the love she wants she wants a family that will treat her good, love her, and take her to the hospital because of her foot. Third Detail is when one day Ada sneaks outside without Mam knowing so then when Mam found out she beat her until Ada's shoulders bled ad she screamed You're nobbut a disgrace and she also yelled a monster with a ugly foot, and she also said you think I want the world to see my shame.

# data[].attributes.body
1. When Ada it trying to walk. She is practicing most of the time, going through a lot because of her foot and she thinks that if she is able to walk maybe Mam will actually like her better and allow her to go outside just like Jamie.
2. Mam treats Ada like she is her slave. It also seems like she does not care about Ada`s  health. She says this ¨you´d better be making my tea.¨and also ¨ And if there is any left through it out the window.¨ Well Ada here seems like she is not getting any food and  Mam does not care.
3. ¨My room was a prison¨ She feels like she is alone and has nothing to do in her room

1. tied her brother up 2. taught my self how to walk

# data[].attributes.body
1. I dreaded being alone I begged Jamie not to go he thrashed once then tears went down his face.

2. Then I did what I should have done to start with if I  could walk maybe mam wouldn't be so ashamed.
I think she dreaded being alone because she couldn't walk and go outside that's why she dreaded being alone and a good reason for her to want to walk.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Mam found out,and beat me until my shoulders bled.I think this is a key detail because it shows you how badly Ada was treated.

2.  I tied his hands and feet while he was sleeping. I would make him stay with me.This is a key detail because it shows how much Ada wants her brother to stay with her.

3. If I could walk ,maybe Mam would not be so ashamed of me.This is another key detail because Ada wants her mother to be proud of her and not be ashamed of her.

# data[].attributes.body
The first key detail is I dreaded being alone because she could not go out and play with the other kids. the second one is the one time I did venture outdoors Mam found out and beat me until my shoulders bled because she was not aloud to go outside. The third one is she threatened to board over my window if I went downstairs because Mam thought she was an embarrassment

# data[].attributes.body
"A monster with that ugly foot! You think i want the world to see my shame?" Mam is saying that is saying why she doesn't let Ada adventure out, because her ugly foot. "There are all kinds of wars." This is stating that Ada goes through many wars such as her and her mothers war, her and Jamie, and Hitlers war with the bombing. "Why shouldn't he?" Mam said. "Hes normal enough." To Jamie she said, "Your not like Ada. You can go wherever you like." I feel like this is a main idea because it it saying that Jamie has more freedom than Ada because of Adas disability, and I put this as a main detail because its just not right to punish people with disability's (like Ada) different to normal people.

# data[].attributes.body
she can not walk,her mother treats her unfairly she said that if she goes downstairs she boarded up the windows. she wants her brother to stay with her she Goes so far as to tie him up  because she does not want be alone

# data[].attributes.body
One of the key details is Ada learning to walk. When she learns to walk she is putting her self through tough situations. She wants to be able to play with Jamie. She can't play with Jamie because Mam is being so mean to her

Another Key detail was the 3 war's that Ada was going through. One with Jamie and her tying him up to his bed so he wouldn't leave her. The second was with Mam. Mam was putting Ada through something a parent should never do. I feel like Ada's mom is doing this on purpose. Ada has to stay in the house, has to do everything Mam says and has to crawl on her hands and knees. The third is with Hitler. There is a war going on that she cant deal with.

The third is she is being put through a situation she cant deal with. Her mom is treating her very poorly. She is being forced to do something she doesn't want to do.

# data[].attributes.body
1. She can't walk. Because her foot hurts so much she can't put weight on it.

2. She had 3 wars going on with her. Jamie's war, Mam's war, Hitler's war.

3. She dreads being alone. She's alone because she can't go anywhere besides the room shes in.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the 3 key details is
Mam smacked me. Hard My head snapped back against the chair leg and for a moment I saw stars.I think this is one because it shows us that when ever Ada does something wrong she gets hurt or slapped.
Another one is you'd better be making my tea. This is one because she acks like Ada is her made.
The last one is Cut me up some bread and dripping mam said. Get some for your brother too. And if there's any left you can throw it out the window. That just shows that mam does not care about her at all.

# data[].attributes.body
1. When she Say she is gonna learn how to walk so Mam wont be so ashamed of her because it makes the reader want to read the next chapter.

2. When she says that the story takes place during a war in 1939 because it tells the reader what time the story takes place.

3. When Mam beats her because she was talking to someone outside because it shows how Mam is and how Ada is treated throughout the story.

# data[].attributes.body
1. He ain't a cripple like you. It is important because this is something wrong with her leg and something wrong between Ada and her mother.
2. It also says "you'd better be making my tea" Mam said. Which makes it important to recognize because since she has that problem with her foot her mom makes Ada a slave for her.
3. If there is any left you can throw it out the window. That is IMPORTANT to recognize that because since Ada has that leg problem her mom isn't concerned about her health.

# data[].attributes.body
"Don't start thinking you can cross me. You're lucky I put up with you as it is.  You've no idea how much worse it can be." Mam is telling Ada that everything could be worse than it already is.

But the time I did venture outdoors, Mam found out,  and beat me until my shoulders bled. "You're nobbut a disgrace!" she screamed. "A monster, with that ugly foot! YOU think I want to the world seeing my shame?" Mam is saying that Ada is a disappointment to her.

"And if there's any left you can throw it out the window.  See if Stephen White would like your dinner. How'd you like that?" Mam doesn't care that Ada eats or not because she is saying Ada can throw her food out the window for Stephen White.

They are important because they show Ada is being mistreated.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Get back from the window! Mam's Voice shouting. Mam yanking me and i toppled off my chair. It means that i cant look out the window because Mam didn't want me talking to anybody that's outside because she doesn't want me taking to any strangers.

2. When the tea was ready mam came down to get her mug. And she said don't start thinking that you can cross me. It means that she probably thinks because she cant walk that she cant do every thing.

3. Maybe if i could walk maybe, Mam wouldn't be so ashamed of me. It means that she wished she could walk so Mam wouldn't be so ashamed of her.

# data[].attributes.body
"Ada! get back from that window" Mam's voice shouting .Mam's arm, grabbing mine ,yanking so I toppled of of my chair and fell hard to the floor.

Then I saw a smear of blood on the floor oh mercy. I hadn't cleaned it all up from this afternoon . If mam saw it she'd put two and two together , fast.Then i'd be in the soup for sure

Cut me some bread and dripping "mam said" "get some for your brother to "she laughed " " and if there is any left throw it out the window " see if Stephen white would like your dinner . How'd you like that?

# data[].attributes.body
My room was a prison. I could hardly bear the heat and the quiet  and emptiness. This is important because its describing how poorly she's being treated by mam.

Ada was teaching herself to walk. This how bad she wants to get out she was willing to take that risk with a disability that is how bad she wants to get out of mams house!

" Why shouldn't he be he ain't a cripple. Not like you". this is a key detail because it's showing how mam doesn't care about Ada or Ada's wealth.

These are important because its showing how mam doesn't care about Ada at all

# data[].attributes.body
mams arm yanking mine and I toppled on the floor.

Cut me sum bread and drippen.

If mam found out she beet me till my shoulders bled

# data[].attributes.body
Ada tied Jamie's hands and feet,  She felt so alone an urge of making him stay rattled.  Jamie cried...no screaming, no anger and no fighting just a cry.  Ada felt so hopeless Ada felt so terrible calling her self a monster.
"If I could walk, maybe Mam wouldn't be so ashamed of me" Ada said she might be able to disguise my foot.  But knowing that I will have pain, and there will be practice and abuse.
I can never go out there, Mam says i'm not like them I am not like them. I have a twisted foot and when I walk it sends so much pain, So I crawl and crawl every where and anywhere.

# data[].attributes.body
1 your a disgrace said her mother she means she do no what the mothers buddy's think she has horrible kids

2 her mother said cut me some bread and drippen and if there any left throw it out the window. she is like a slave to her mother

The part when Mam (Mom) said to Jamie you,re not a cripple like Ada it encouraged Ada to try to walk because Mam says you can walk unlike Ada.
Another key detail is when Mam snagged Ada right out of her chair in the beginning of chapter one.
My last detail is when Jamie always came back he told her what he saw and it encouraged her to try to be with her brother after she learns to walk.

# data[].attributes.body
"Ada! get back from that window!"  Ada looks out a window because she cant go outside.

"Don't be talking' to nobody" Mam doesn't want Ada having anyone know about her foot.

2.In the end it was the combination of the two, the end of my little war against Jamie and the start of the big war, Hitler's war, that set me free.this line is important because her war with her brother is done and the next war is big but rewarding for her to have freedom.
