In this book they have moved around alot through out the country. They had lived in places from Arizona all the way to West Virgina where they are currently living. I think that it would be interesting to have lived in such diverse places with differant people like they did, but their reasons for moving i would not want. They move around because her parents dont have a steady job and they are just trying to make ends meet; so they sometimes have to bail out of a town when the debts get too high. Her father Rex is an alcoholic and wastes alot of their money on booze, and her mother is a quirky artist who spends alot on her art supplies. She has three siblings, one older and two younger, so her parents have four mouths to feed when they dont even have a steady job. Even though they dont have a near to perfect life they handle the situation well and Jeanette and her brother always find something fun to do and thats what i admire about Jeanette.
Even though i have only lived in Mason my whole life and dont have those kind of parents, i can stillrelate to this story because i do alot of traveling. i have been all across the west to places like Arizone(which was Jeanettes favorite place to live) and New Mexico, ive traveled up north to Maine and south to Florida, but my favorite vacations have been out of the country. I like out of the country vacations so much better because you get to experiance a whole new culture unlike american. I recently went to the Bahamas and everything was so differant, and since ive never been there i had so many interesting new things to do. And thats how id like to picture how Jeanette viewed their circumstances when they always moved around, a new adventure with new experiances. She also liked animals, exept for the fat rat in Welch, and so do I. She always found new pets in the places she moved to and i also encountered alot of new animals. While in the Bahamas we swam with animals like dolphins, sea lions, sting rays, and even sharks, and now I get why she loved new pets. So even though my family and Jeanettes family are completely differant, we still share similarities and can connect to eachother.
