When my gal Lillian Jean says for you to get yo' self off the sidewalk, you get, you hear" (Chapter 5. Scene: When Lillian Jean told Cassie to get off the sidewalk.)  When i read this it made me feel kind of mad because I would hate to be in her shoes. But at the same time it made me relized how different it was back then.   "No day in all my life had ever been as cruel as this one" (Chapter 5. Scene: When Big Ma made Cassie say sorry to Lillian Jean.)   When the author wrote this, it reminded me of a time when my parents made me say sorry when i didnt do anything and it mad me really mad just like how Cassie felt.   "Then I turned and left the forest, not wanting to believe that Lillian Jean didn't even relized it had all been just a game" (Chapter 8. Scene: When Cassie told Lillian Jean that she had a surpise for her in the forest and beat her up.)   At first when I read this it made me think of how a 10 year old beat up a 12 year old. I think Cassie did the right thing by not beating her up where people could see. She really listened to Papa about if you are going to beat up Lillian Jean make sure you do it when no one is around and not where its noticable.
