As the book goes on, the subjects of the vignettes get heavier and heavier. This eventually comes to death and abuse at the end. She always wanted to grow up, get a family, and get a house.

From her circumstances, she was able to learn lessons about the world that influenced her perspective about the world. For example in the vignette The Monkey's Garden, she noticed that boys and girls had a certain relationship between each other. It had made her mad and confused at first.
