At the age of five, she knows many things and can make realizations about many things. This is possibly inherited from her mother, who is “street smart”.

    • Blue = The girl is embarrassed with her mother this is because she is illiterate. Many children think their parents are the world's most perfect people when they are little but find out later that not always is this true. This situation is happening to the girl in this story she is telling. Because before now, she did not know that her mom was illiterate. At first in the story when she finds out she is not embarrassed she just doesn't fully understand. When she sees the little girl, who has never seen anything like her mother, then she realizes it is not normal. First wants to protect her mother. But then she gets embarrassed about the topic.

Walker-Jones seems like a good school at first, but then the author describes how it isn’t as good as it looks, and how it isn’t good for the main character. Her mother also is nervous about her going there, and doesn't want her to.
