Have you ever seen a lame animal, perhaps a dog run over by some careless person rich enough to own a car, sidle up to someone who is ignorant enough to be kind to him? That is the way my Maggie walks. She has been like this, chin on chest, eyes on ground, feet in shuffle, ever since the fire burned the other house to the ground.

Sometimes I can still hear the flames and feel Maggie's arms sticking to me, her hair smoking and her dress falling off in little black papery flakes. Her eyes seemed stretched open, blazed open by the flames reflected in them. And Dee. I see her standing off under the sweet gum tree she used to dig gum out of, a look of concentration on her face as she watched the last dingy gray board of the house fall in towards the red-hot brick chimney. Why don't you do a dance around the ashes? I'd wanted to ask. She hated the house that much."]]> 2019-09-23 19:24:56 UTC https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388442369 1901143771 https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388442515 On page 59 mama states."Maggie reads to me. She stumbles along good-naturally but can't see well. She knows she is not bright. Like good looks and money, quickness passed her by. She will marry John Thomas (who has mossy teeth in an earnest face), and then I'll be free to sit here
and I guess just sing church songs to myself." Maggie seems to have a decent education as well as has her life planned out from  having money pass her by as well as marry a man named John Thomas. She is just a simple Person. ]]> 2019-09-23 19:25:13 UTC https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388442515 1901143771 https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388442729 Maggie is Very intimidated of Dee as it is shown on pg. 60." When she comes, I will meet—but there they are! Maggie attempts to make a dash for the house, in her shuffling way, but I stay her with my hand. "Come back here," Then on pg.61 mama states." She stoops down quickly and lines up picture after picture of me sitting there in front of the house with Maggie cowering behind me."]]> 2019-09-23 19:25:37 UTC https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388442729 1901143771 https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388920212 Maggie has a really good memory. On page 63 Maggie says that "Aunt Dee's first husband whittled the dash." She also goes on to tell us that. " His name was Henry but they called him stash." This information causes Dee to comment "Maggie's brain is like an elephant's."]]> 2019-09-24 15:31:13 UTC https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388920212 1901143771 https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388937536 2019-09-24 15:51:52 UTC https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/388937536 1901143771 https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/389578172 2019-09-25 16:25:53 UTC https://padlet.com/1901143771/ibdn8r9wj8ly/wish/389578172
