Reflection of The Pearl

The book Pearl, written by John Steinbeck, is about a family that has a baby named Coyotito and it was stung by a scorpion. When the family goes to the doctor he won't help them because they don't have enough money to pay. So the next day they go pearling and they find a pearl. Everyone thinks it is the "pearl of the world". Now in the story they are thinking on what the buy with it because the baby was healed. Then the doctor heard they found the pearl and tricked them into thinking the baby is still sick. Then they will hire him and he will pretend that he cured him. After he pretended to cure him he left. Then late at night someone came in and tried to steal the pearl and he ended up running away but, Kino got hurt. My prediction is that the cut will get infected and the doctor has to come and heal that. Also the doctor must of been the person tring to steal the pearl.

  1. While the content of your post is good, don't forget that good writing skills still apply. You had many sentences that began with the word "then" which took away from your good ideas. Don't forget to edit your work carefully.
