 **Ch 1 You should never gossip about someone you don’t know anything about that person. In the story everyone was talking about Janie when she was walking down the street. Ch 2 What more, and not settle for less than you think you deserve. Ch 3 When you get married it doesn’t always mean it is for love beccause Janie doesn't what to marry Logan Kellicks. Ch4 If you look hard enough you find someone who loves you for who you are because Janie found Joe and left with him. Ch5 When you marry someone you need to know them so you don’t get treated like your voice means nothing and you’re treated like someone’s possession for example when Joe said that Janie's place was in the house and said she couldn't make speeches. Joe puts Janie on a pedestal.**  **Find someone that has the same love you do. In this chapter Janie gives away what she doesn’t value. Jody shows gift giving love and Janie doesn’t like it. Ch9 When you escape from your prison you while feel released and happy. In this chapter Jody dies and Janie feels happy but she still mourns for him. Ch10 When you escape from your prison you while feel released and happy. In this chapter Jody dies and Janie feels happy but she still mourns for him.** <span style="COLOR: #ffffff; FONT-FAMILY: 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">**Ch11 Don’t listen to anything bad anyone say’s about the one you love.

Janie had this decision palsied upon her. She had to shoot Tea Cake because he was going to shoot her because he was rabid. She didn’t want to shoot him.** Charles Keith B-1 Chp1 Women are truly different from men. We just really wait thinking that everything we want will come true from nothing; and when it doesn’t, we sit and wait longer and give up hope. Everyone is always trying to put people down and keep them down. Humans are a competitive species, and can’t stand anyone being better than anyone else. We always have to be superior to everyone; it’s a never ending race to the bottom. Chp 2 It’s pretty sad when nether of your parents want you and you have to be left with your nanny for your entire life. The slave owners were smart in putting the slaves in different social levels. They knew it would pull them apart and rebel against to each other. Chp 3 I suppose that while a man is with a woman he will be nice and sweet and say a whole lot of something which may mean everything or nothing. Later, I suppose, after they are married the man feels that she is his and nothing can take her away. He feels as if he has already got her and the sweet nice things aren’t necessary anymore. Chp 4 As I said before, guys think that after they have their wife they think that they are their’s forever. They really think that nothing can take them away. That just pushes the lady further away. Chp 5 People are overall arrogant and when they get above everyone else they believe nothing can take them down. Chp 6 All Janie wants is love yet Joe just keeps putting her down over and over again and doesn’t give her any say about it what so ever. Sometimes I think that people treat dogs better. Chp 7 As people get older they become more sensitive toward there appearance, especially women. To draw attention away from Joe he picked a Janie’s looks and really made her mad. She struck right back and hurt Joe’s pride. If there is one thing that ticks guys the most it is ruining their pride. Chp 8 After you have been hurt, you try for revenge or at least make them sorry for what they did. This is what Jody tried on Janie in the book. Janie hurt his reputation so he is trying all he can to make her feel bad by giving her the cold shoulder even though he is over it. Chp 9 No matter how bad someone might have been to you, during a funeral you can’t stand the fact that they have passed on. In Janie’s case however, she had been captivated and held down from who she truly wanted to be. She was now free and something inside her set her free. Although at this moment she couldn’t let anyone see this. Chp 10 It is pretty surprising that even after the funeral, people would be so cold hearted as to try and take Janie for their own. Especially Hicks, when he thinks he is the only one suitable for her. He expects to marry her and live the rest of his life with her. Even though she isn’t grieving anymore, she has new-found freedom. Chp 11 It is easy to win over someone’s heart if you know the right things to say. However, it is more difficult win they have been through hardships before and know how people act. Janie thought that Tea Cake was only using her for money and sex, when he really was in it for love. Chp 12 When someone is in love, they are in love. There is just about nothing you can do about it. It is just not right to say something like someone is too good for someone else. People shouldn’t be so critical. Chp 13 After hearing all about Annie Tyler and what had happened there, it would be kind of hard not to think that Tea Cake had left her. He was gone and so was her money. He did as he said though, he got back all of the money and more. I wouldn’t suggest this kind of guy to anyone but, if they are in love, nothing is tearing them apart. Chp 14 Even after being “Miss Mayor” and all rich and having everything, money can’t and won’t buy happiness. Giving someone the chance to be themselves and to be with whom they love is the most happiness anyone will ever find within them. Chp 15 If you love someone and you completely trust them, there should be no question in one’s mind what-so-ever questioning the relationship. Love is trust remember that. Chp 16 People always want to be the best. They are always judging by the way people look and act rather than looking at each individual’s personalities. Mrs. Turner is even black but wants to lighten up the race. She hates dark skinned black people. Chp 17 Tea cake really is a good guy. He wanted to prove this to Mrs. Turner by being the best gentleman at the restaurant and so his respect. However, when Dick Sterrett and Coodemay decided to join, it ruined and crashed everything. Tea Cake and a bunch of other men got into a big fight and trashed the place. I guess what comes around goes around. Chp 18 There were many signs and plenty of choices for Janie and Tea Cake to leave because of the hurricane that was coming. They decided to ignore all of the though so they were stuck in the storm. I say birds of feather flock together, they should have gone with everyone else and then if nothing happened, they would still be able to go back. Chp 19 People always have to make decisions, and sometimes, we have to make a decision that is hard to make. Janie loved Tea Cake and didn’t want him to kill her because he was rabid. She had to shoot Tea Cake to save herself. But, in the process, she was bit also and has been doomed to the path that Tea Cake was. Chp 20 This last chapter’s lesson is to forgive and forget. The people soon realized that after they got over their anger at Janie, that it was for protection, Janie would never kill Tea Cake purposely, they loved each other too much.
 * Ch 6**
 * Don’t take the abuse from a loved one and just get away. Janie didn’t do that she just took the abuse and held her tongue.**
 * Ch7**
 * Never let someone feel badly about yourself. Don’t think your ugly. In this chapter Jody makes Janie feel ugly because of how he treats her.**
 * Ch 8**
 * Ch12**
 * When you see a chance to be free take it and don’t let anyone say otherwise. In this chapter everyone was like don’t marry Tea Cake and lower her status. She didn’t care.**
 * Ch13**
 * To the girls. Never leave the house without your emergency money. In this chapter Janie had $200 pined to her dress. She did that so if Tea Cake didn’t have enough money she had some.**
 * Ch15**
 * Always keep a close eye on your lover. In this chapter Janie catches Tea Cake messing with this girl but he said it was nothing.**
 * Ch16**
 * Never judge people by the way they look. Mrs. Truner does that and doesn’t know what people are really like.**
 * Ch17**
 * Being unkind could turn on you and something bad could happen to you. Mrs Turner was unkind to Tea Cake so he and his friends got drunk in her restaurant and trashed the place. She was injured while the fighting was going on.**
 * Ch18**
 * Always trust nature it’s always right. Janie and Tea Cake ignored the signs. The Native Americans went to higher ground, the animals went too. Tea Cake and Janie got caught in the hurricane. If they went to higher ground Tea Cake would not got bitten by the rabid dog.**
 * Ch20**
 * When you know what love means don’t let anyone tell you different. When Janie came back people talked about her and her love, but she didn’t care because she knows what love means and the people don’t know anything about true love.**

Even if they don’t know you they will gossip about you. The best part about that is their words don’t determine anything about your life. That’s why it is good to have friends who will stand up for you, friends who got your back. Don’t worry be happy <span style="COLOR: #ff6600; FONT-FAMILY: Wingdings; mso-ascii-font-family: 'Copperplate Gothic Bold'; mso-hansi-font-family: 'Copperplate Gothic Bold'; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings"> J



Simone Baker Ch2 In this chapter Janie finds out that’s she’s black. She had been hanging out with the white kids all her life that she thought she was white. They teased her because of that, but it shouldn’t matter what color your skin is. Janie is now starting to grow up to become a woman. She doesn’t want to but she needs to because she needs to move on with her life and grow up <span style="COLOR: #3366ff; FONT-FAMILY: Wingdings; mso-ascii-font-family: 'Showcard Gothic'; mso-hansi-font-family: 'Showcard Gothic'; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings"> J

Simone Baker Ch3 When you marry someone you should marry them because you love them and you want to spend the rest of your life with them. That person should be the love of you life, your better half. You shouldn’t marry anyone just because you grandma, or a loved one, wants you to. I believe that after you marry someone you should continue doing what you were doing from the start. Just because you tied the knot doesn’t mean you got that person for the rest of your life. Cherish that person until death do us part <span style="COLOR: #99cc00; FONT-FAMILY: Wingdings; mso-ascii-font-family: 'Showcard Gothic'; mso-hansi-font-family: 'Showcard Gothic'; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings"> J


 * Simone Baker **
 * Ch4 **
 * Now-a-days girls fall for guys because of the sweet stuff they say. When Janie meet Jody he said to her, “a pretty doll-baby lak you is made to sit on de front porch and rock and yo’self and eat p’taters dat other folks plant just special for you.” Men say whatever they can to get a girl which is called game. we as females need to know when I guy is spitting game to a girl or ifs its honestly how they feel about us . **

** Ch 7 Back in the old days woman were treated badly. Jody doesn’t let Janie do anything. He makes her stay in the store and do nothing. She can’t even talk to any boys. He doesn’t have the right to tell Janie what to do, he isn’t her daddy. Janie didn’t say anything or try to stop him from telling her what to do. One day Janie was talking and embarrassed Jody so Jody hit her in the face as hard as he could. No woman deserves a man to put his hand on her. I don’t care what she does.
 * Simone Baker **
 * Ch5 **
 * Janie and Joe have just come to the new town that they are going to life for the rest of their life. As soon as Joe gets their, he tries to fix the town up by putting lambs up and buying more new land. Some people are grateful while the other don’t like what he’s going. Not everybody do well with change. If you have been living a certain way for your whole life, then someone comes and tries to change everything, people aren’t going to like that. He’s showing off his wealth. Joe wants to be the leader of everything and Janie isn’t feeling it.
 * Simone Baker **
 * Ch6 **
 * Janie works in Jody’s store. She isn’t allowed to talk to any men because Jody will think something of that. Jody buys a mule that was treated badly. This is an example that one mans trash is another mans treasure. If Jody doesn’t stop treating Janie the way he does, like trash, she may end up being another mans treasure. **

Simone Baker Ch 8 Janie ran away with Jody and she thought it was going to be all peaches and cream…but it wasn’t’. Jody is still mad about their little fight and he is still not talking to her. After all that time you would think that Jody would have gotten over that fight and moved on with his life. My momma always tells me not let the sun go down while you are still angry. Always forgive but never forget! I think if they would have sat down and talked about what happened they could have settled the situation and it could have been done and over with.

Ch 9 Simone Baker Jody is about to die. His kidneys have failed him and he is really sick. As Jody is dieing, Janie spills all her anger out to him. She tells him about how bad he treated her after all those years of being together. All that misery that he put her through when all she could do was work in his store and not have any freedom. He basically treated her like a slave.

**
 * Ch 10 **
 * After Jody’s death Janie has to move on with her life. She begins to live the life that she couldn’t live with Jody. She starts making new friends and not living like a slave. She meets a man named Teacake. They start hanging out together and Janie wonders if their friendship will end up as more than just friends.

**
 * Simone Baker **
 * Ch11 **
 * Teacake was been gone for about a week and Janie is starting to worry. She asks her friend Hezekiah what he thinks about him ad I don’t think he likes him. From the get go Hezekiah didn’t want him talking to Janie. Teacake comes back and Janie and they start hanging out again. He tells her he is leaving again and she worries where he is going. I think Janie is starting to like Teacake. I mean who wouldn’t, Janie hasn’t felt what it feels like to be with a man ever since Jody died and here comes Teacake trying to show her a good time.

Simone Baker Ch 12 What is love? Love is what Janie has for Teacake despite their age difference. She loves him despite what others have to say about their relationship. Why should you listen to what others have to say about your ‘ relationship? If you don’t like it deal with it. Just like Aaliyah says, “Age aint nothing but a number.’’

Simone Baker Ch 13 Teacake leaves and Janie notices her money is gone. Should she have listened when the others said that he was only after her money. When he came back to had more money. She tells Teacake that she wants to enjoy everything that he does. She begins to trust him. What is relationship without trust? It is NOTHING!!!! Simone Baker Ch 14 I like this chapter!!! Janie and Teacake really show that they love each other. He teaches her stuff like how to shoot a gun, how to hunt, and how to work in the fields. They want to spend all their time together.

Simone Baker Ch 15 Janie is jealous of the girl named Nunkie because she always flirts with Teacake. One day she finds them play fighting of the ground. Like I said before without trust you have nothing. If Janie trusted Teacake completely then their wouldn’t have been an ounce of jealously in her mind.

Simone Baker Ch 16 This chapter surprised me. Ms. Turner is not your typical “black person.” Instead of not liking the white folks because of what they did to use, she doesn’t like the black folks. She doesn’t like Teacake because of his dark skin and wants Janie to marry a lighter skinned man. I think that is incredibly stupid. It doesn’t matter what color your skin is. You can be as black as night or as pale as can be, but we all bleed red.

Simone Baker Ch 17 One night while at Ms. Turners restaurant Teacake gets into a fight with these two drunk guys. In the end Ms. Turner gets hurt and frames Teacake. I think she deserved

Simone Baker Ch 18 A hurricane is coming and instead of moving up on land, Janie and Teacake stay. Everybody else is moving except them. Maybe it is good to follow oher sometimes because if they would have followed them, Teacake wouldn’t have gotten bitten by the dog with rabies.

Simone Baker Ch 19 Sometimes in life we all have to do things that we really don’t want to do but must do it because will benefit you in the end. Teacake is going crazy because of the rabies and Janie has to kill him before he kills her. She shoots him with a guy and he dies. If she didn’t shoot him she would have died. Save yourself, protect yourself, be SMART!!!

Simone Baker Ch20 Janie comes back and the people are talking. Janie doesn’t care because she knows what she had was love. She was being loved by her men and in the end that’s all that mattered. ||
