  1. Chapter fourteen in my opinion is short and does not have much to talk about. I found it to be dull because all that happened was Katy’s grandmother leaving to go back home in Cincinnati and how Katy explained to Peggy that she wanted to have a birthday party. It was amusing how Peggy had no idea how to play pin the tail on the donkey and other games that were played at birthday parties, or about party favors, prizes, ice cream and cake. However it’s understandable because she grew up less fortunate. I also found that it was thoughtful of Katy to invite Jacob to her birthday party.

  2. In chapter fourteen, Katy’s grandmother went back to Cincinnati and before she leaves, she took the picture with his little girl, Mary and Laura paisley. I think she doesn’t want to go because of this cute little girl Mary. Bishops had a new hired girl named Flora but I think Katy was disappointed because Flora was quiet and shy girl. And I guess Flora was really different from Nell. Nell was a playful and funny girl. I feel so bad for Nell because Paul had taken another girl to the spring cotillion and that made her angry. I think Katy really care about Jacob and trying to be nice to him because she invited Jacob to her birthday party.

  3. Katy started third grade in school and met a neww teacher who had gray hair and taught for thirty years at school. Also, Miss Moody, Katy's new teacher, knew about Katy's mother, because she taught Katy's mother 26 years ago. However, Katy will be having her nineth bithday party and she wanted to invite Jacob to the party. Katy asked Jacob to come her party, but of course Jacob did not answer her question and just interested to Katy's cat which hw gave to Katy.

  4. CHapter fourteen wasn't all that interesting. The bishops got a ner hired girl name Flora, levi's sister SHe wasn't all that interesting.I like how Katy compared the two I mean from the sound of it, she might be quiet, or just stubborn. One thing i know for sure is that nellie had so much more going on, shes funny and out going and i guess flora is just so serious with her job. ANother part that i liked was when she went to school and she had thios really old teacher name mrs. moody, which was her mother's old teacher before, and she had Katy sit on her mothers old desk. i also like the part where KAty was talking about her birthday, how she didnt really celebrate it because she had the chicken pox, and that she was opening gifts on her bed, really sad.:(

  5. Katy told Peggy that it was almost her birthday and she wanted Jacob to come but Peggy said to Katy that Jacob doesn’t know what a party is and he wouldn’t feel comfortable around this kids that didn’t like him at all for what he is, she tried to convince Peggy to him no matter what but she said no. if I wanted someone invited to my birthday party I don’t care if they don’t like this person im gonna make their birth day. Sure that this person is here for my party not any one of these people and I would actually make like it was

  6. This chapter is kind of interesting to me because Nellie was out of the Bishop’s house. She left back home and the weird thing is Paul had gone too. Katy happens to have a feeling that the reason why Nellie left was because Mr. Bishop and Mrs. Bishop found out her and Paul. I feel sorry for Katy because she wanted to know the truth about both Nellie and Paul. All Austin told her is Nellie pack her clothes and left the house crying. I think that’s pretty sad… I wonder if Paul played behind her back and wanted her to get hurt or something, maybe that’s why she just packed her clothes and left crying.

  7. Chapter 14 – September 1911
    The interesting things about this book are the pictures that have been well over my age. It’s interesting to see pictures from back then, but even more interesting when there are stories to go along with it. When Mr. Bishop took picture of Gram, Mary, and Laura I think it was perfect. I could almost feel the joy, of having 2 babies on my lap. Though Mr. Bishop was harsh on Paul I think it’s time for him to take responsibility instead of slamming the door and walking away. As I found out Mr. Bishop was a lawyer or a liar, but he seemed to be an alright person in this book. I think Katharine likes Jacob more than she likes Austin. She gave him those marbles and I knew instantly she had some feeling towards him. So far the book improved along the way and I think it’s getting pretty good now.

  8. This is the fourth book I've read by this author, and I've enjoyed all but Messenger. (That seems like a weak retry to tell a similar story to the wonderful Giver.)
