Chapters 5, 6, and 7

     After reading these chapters, I thought it was really nice how the master's wife, started to teach Douglas how to read and write. The sad part was that after the master told his wife not to she stopped, but that didn't stop Douglas. The cool part was when Douglas tried to find time and people to try to teach him how to read and write. What was different for me was that Douglas's master was still "nice" to him.

     Also, what stood out to me was that the master's wife was still nice to him even after the master told her not to. Even though some people were still even horrible, there were still some people who were nice. Some master's gave their slaves, food water and a good place to stay. This book helps me understood what really went on during this time.
