Chapters 5,6, and 7

     This part of this story wasn't that bad. Reading chapter 5 wasn't that bad but it was still sad how he suffered much from his own hunger and even more from the cold. All he wore was a coarse tow linen shirt. He wasn't old enough to go and work in the field so that's all he got. It was sad on the coldest nights that he had to steal a bag that was used for caring corn to mill. In this chapter he also got a new mistress and she was much nicer than the other ones he had.
     Reading chapter six was kinda of sad but not really. It was sad when he told about the total opposite of how he was treated. The guy beat the girls and that was the only part really that was sad. The part that wasn't sad was that he got a new mistress and she taught him his ABC's and spelling. But the sad part about this is that the master found out and he got mad at the mistress and forbid her to keep teaching him these things.
     This chapter was a happy ending for him. He got a new master and he was learning again how to read and write. His new mistress said that he should be treated like a human being and I agree. She wanted to treat him as a human being but she knew it was a dangerous to do. He learned how to be friends with little Caucasian boys. This was sad when he wanted to die and was saying this to the Irishmen. At the end of this chapter he learned how to write. I thought this part was exciting that he learned how to write.
