A strong, determined, and caring grandmmother!!!

"A Worn Path" was about an old black grandmother named Phoenix. She had a sick grandson and was very determined to keep him alive. During this story she faced alot of obstacles but, nothing could keep her from getting the proper medication for her grandson. This is story that shows many different things but, one important thing stuck to me from reading this story. Because this story's setting was set around Christmas time, the word "Charity" is mentioned in the story. It made me wonder...is the money or personal sacrifice most important in charity.

A calm,mellow,determined story of a grandmother going to ...

This story isn't shabby, considering the exposition being a cold, chilly afternoon. The narration is nothing fancy, and there's no mega flashbacks so you can easily follow and feel the emotions and thoughts of this little, old, colored lady with a red hood. Good story.
