For homework, please read the first chapter of The Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes.
Answer the following question about the Hundred Penny Box:
Very often, we keep certain objects or possessions to remind us of something or someone from the past. In The Hundred Penny Box, we found the themes of “holding on” to the past, the way that Aunt Dew does, and “letting go” the way that Michael’s mother, Ruth, tries to. Ruth thinks that Aunt Dew should forget her past in order to be happy in life. What do you think of this? Is it more important to forget about bad things or things in the past, or to remember them? Please write at least one paragraph.
Then, please translate the first two pages of Ch. 1 "Usually Wanda...on the floor" into Chinese on a separate piece of paper.
