154 seeing 1 and 2

she starts off by telling the reader how her mother never stepped foot inside that store which is ironic because the little girl loved going there. Then she transitions into what would lead the girl to going to the store which was the mother running out of any groceries the man downtown delivered to her. Then she begins to tell the reader of every neighbor shes had as she passes by their house kn her wah to the store. Then recalls her visit there and her trip back. The games she used to play express her feelings towards the store in a positive way because she obviously enjoyed and had a lot of fun taking this adventure to the store and they're memories that are attached to her feelings pf the store. the effects of presenting these paragraphs before the store are that it gives the store a greater meaning and  doesnt present it as just some store in the neighborhood. She appeals to my taste because she describes the food and the drinks inside the store and she appeals to my smell because i could almost smell all the food whole she describes it walking down the aisles. in my opinion its like shes smaking everything seem ten times amazing then it really is just like we all did when we were kids and every little step for her on her way to that store was like an adventure.

2. after i read the story i actually saw the picture on the front page and as i was reading the story i tried to picture how the shopkeeper would look like and it was exactly how this guy looks. i pictured an angry looking man, very serious in really traditional shopkeeper clothes just chillen by the door or something waiting to welcome in the next kid or adult that walked through his door. the shadows surrounding him definitly make him look more mysterious and serious and give off a threatning vibe.. in the back of the picture there is a calender of wright and ferguson and some bananas hanging from the window. The man looks tired like hes been doing this all his life but at the same time he looks like a figure that is hard to forget.
