That's because he's doing poorly in math class and that actually doesn't bother him. Also, Greg is narrow-minded since he's quick to judge. For instance, when Lemon Brown tells Greg that he has some treasures, Greg asks, "What do you have, gold coins?" (Myers 32). This shows that Greg is quick to assume things. He doesn't consider the possibility that Brown's treasure may not be gold coins. Also, when Brown says that people used to call him "Sweet Lemon Brown", Greg mocks him by saying "Sweet Lemon Brown?" (Myers 36). At this point of the story, Greg is making fun of Lemon Brown because of Brown's nickname. ]]> 2020-11-17 17:18:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932840858 ishatyagi https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932841586 In the middle of the story, Greg is seen to be more caring protective of Lemon Brown as there are thugs trying to hurt Brown. According to the narrator, "As Greg howled, the light moved away from Lemon Brown....Greg exhaled in relief as Lemon Brown made his way slowly back up the stairs" (Myers 72 & 77). This shows that Greg has the oppurtunity to leave Brown behind, but instead, Greg decides to help Brown. He's also seen to be very relieved that Brown is safe after the thugs left. ]]> 2020-11-17 17:18:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932841586 ishatyagi https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932842409 Greg leaves the tentament with more knowledge than when he came in. Towards the end of the story, Greg understands to never take anyone or anything for granted. According to the narrator, "Greg pushed the button over the bell marked Ridley, thought of the lecture he knew his father would give him, and smiled" (Myers 112). This shows that Greg is happy that he has a dad who cares about him. Greg also understands that it's not too late to change his relationship with his father.  In all, Greg learns more about having an open mind thanks to Lemon Brown.]]> 2020-11-17 17:18:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932842409 ishatyagi https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932846392 Greg changes very drastically over the course of "Treasure of Lemon Brown" by Walter Dean Myers. He changes the most towards the middle and end of the story when the thugs come and when Brown shows Greg Brown's treasures. ]]> 2020-11-17 17:19:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932846392 ishatyagi https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932988330 The very beginning of the story describes a flashback; Greg's father scolds Greg for doing poorly in math class. Now two days later during a storm, Greg is heading to an old tentament since he doesn't want to face his father.]]> 2020-11-17 17:43:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932988330 ishatyagi https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932989523 Greg meets Lemon Brown. Brown reveals to Greg that he has some treasures. Brown only mentions this to Greg since Brown doesn't want Greg stealing his treasures as it means a great deal to Brown. ]]> 2020-11-17 17:43:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932989523 ishatyagi https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932990058 In this part of the story, a few thugs overhear Lemon Brown and Greg's conversation about Brown's treasures. Like Greg, the thugs assume that Brown's treasure is high in value. So they come barging in attempting to take Brown's treasure. Lemon Brown and Greg are currently in a dangerous situation.]]> 2020-11-17 17:43:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932990058 ishatyagi https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932991103 Greg distracts the thugs. Brown and Greg are safe.
Brown shows Greg his treasures: a harmonica and a few clippings. Brown explains that these belonged to his son, Jesse who died while fighting in war. Greg has sympathy for Brown. ]]> 2020-11-17 17:43:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932991103 ishatyagi https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932991603 Greg leaves the tentament, assured that Lemon Brown will be safe as Brown is going to St. Louis in the morning. 
Greg feels happy that he's going to face a lecture from his father when he arrives home. ]]> 2020-11-17 17:43:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ishatyagi/wakinrvz078wvosm/wish/932991603
