Readers Reponse 2

Make Lemonade
A
uthor: Virginia Euwer Wolff

Today in class I read Make Lemonade. Ms.Johns told us to read for 25 minutes so we did. The book at the moment is very interesting. The reason why is because the main character LaVaughn. She wants to go to college so she talks to her mother about it constantly. Her mother says that she doesn't have money for that at the moment. Then later on she said that she had some money for the college. So LaVaughn's Mother made a bank account for her. In the mean while LaVaughn is babysitting and were she is babysitting she pretty much hates it. Theres cockroaches always on the walls and every were else. Also that theres a mess in the house and she can't even place a book any were to study. She is also very very more a school girl because she loves to go to school and she loves to study and do all her work. In the book i ask my self why is there like a different chapter after almost every 2 pages.
I Think that the author named this book Make Lemonade because LaVaughn has to squeeze her way through everything. Like babysitting and saving money for she can pay for her college. Also i think that LaVaughn is going to quit babysitting because she just can't hardly work there babysitting in house that is so dirty. But it's going to be difficult for her to find a new job if she quits because she has a lot of stuff on her. Because she has to worry about good grades, Save money, and always talk to her mom about college.
