Lemon Brown Blog

When I read the Lemon Brown story I had many different reactions to the events that happened. In the story a character named Lemon Brown was being chased and hunted by horrible people because they wanted his treasure. I was surprised at this because once they got Lemon Brown they still wondered what his treasure was. The reason this I was surprised at this event was because in the end his treasure was not really worth anything to the men who attacked Lemon Brown. I don't understand how you want something without knowing what it actually is. Through the story Greg did change in many ways. By the end of the story you could tell he saw things in a different point of view. At first he was mad and didn't care about what his dad had to say about his life and education. But then something changed, Lemon Brown told Greg about his son that died in the war. He had just given him a harmonica and little things to represent what he was about so his son would always have a part of him with him. Then a weeks passed when he got a call that his son had died in the war. The army sent back the harmonica and anything else his son had with him. The things that Lemon Brown got back were his treasure. The reason he felt so strong about them is because it was the last thing his son had before he died. He told Greg to always appreciate everything parents do for their children, because they only want to help them and make them succeed.  After Greg heard the story he went home and he thought about how his dad was going to give him a lecture, but the thought of that only made Greg feel good. It made him smile because he thought about everything that his dad does it to only make him a better person.
