chapters 27 && 28

These chapters  made me both happy and sad.  I'm  really glad that Jurgis found Marija. It made me sad that Marija had to turn to prostitution in order to provide for her kids. It made me really scared when the police raided the building that Marija and the other prostitutes live in because Jurgis was there and the women living there were only prostitutes because they needed to provide for their families. I was glad that the police let the prostitutes and Jurtis leave. I think it was a really good move for Jurgis to lie about his name so that people wouldnt know that he was the attacker of Connor. I think it is sad that Jurgis got fired from one of his jobs because he was too weak to do his job. I think that Upton Sinclair does a good job of manipulating the emotions that his readers feel when they read this story. :)))))

Chapter 26 of The Jungle!!!

this chapter made me feel happy for Jurgis. He kept his job which is soooo awesome!!! I think it shows that he turned his life around; he managed to get and keep a job and have a happy family! Im so glad for him, but i hope that he doesnt ever turn back to crime. Jurgis is really straightening up and fending for himself! yay!!

Chapters 20-23 The Jungle

I found that I could somewhat relate to these chapters. The family is going through a horribly rough time dealing with Ona's death but is slowly learning how to cope with this. Jurgis is having the most difficult time moving on from this event. His remaining family is encouraging him to get a job and begin to be able to survive on his own and be able to support his child. The chapters also tied into the title of the book because Jurgis ventures out and is in a very rainy forest.
