Roll of thunder hear my cryBy:Julie Parsons

Theme Be happy with what you have!!!!

Quote 1Pick it up she ordered.NO!! He defined.Page #24

Little man should have been more appreciative for the books because they dont that much stuff, and little man should been happy for what he got cause a little can be so much more..

lyricsYou can't always get what you wantYou can't always get what you wantYou can't always get what you wantBut if you try sometimes well you might findYou get what you need

You cant always get what you want (Rolling Stones)Why the lyrics relate to the themeI chose these lyrics because It is true that you cant get what you want all the time but you can get what you need.Quote 2Let the boy go get the coat Page #142Stacey shouldnt have gave his coat o Tj because that was a giftAnd he wouldnt never gotten a coat like that if mama and papa bought It

Lyrics And it's a sad picture, the final blow hits youSomebody else gets what you wanted againYou know it's all the same, another time and placeRepeating history and your getting sick of it

Change (Taylor Swift)I chose this because it talks about how someone gets what you wanted and it repeats over and over and if you think about Tj was talking about Stacey and how he looked like a fat preacher and give it to him. Stacey shouldn't Of listened to Tj cause that was a gift and the best coat that he has.Quote 3Mrs. Logan dont ask me to go.Mama doesnt want him to get hurt even though she knows they need him.Page #226LyricsBroken arms all in a row There's someone there to grow. Don't wanna hurt you. Hit you, hate you, bend you, break you anyway they can. They'd like to hurt you. Laugh about it, shout about it, doubt it all you want: They want to hurt you. Don't you understand? They want to hurt you. I'll stop them if I can, won't let them hurt you. This world is full of people who want to hurt you(Salim Houallah)The reasons I picked this is because you should understand people are here for you and even though he could get hurt he wants to stay with the Logans

Quote 4 Page # 240( They been mighty fine friends to me ) Better than yall. See what they gave me. He tugged at the coat.

Tj should have been happy with what he had cause what he had is better than what he hasLyrics- Usher , you got it badYou got it, you got it badIf you miss a day without your friendYour whole life's off trackYou know you got it bad whenYou stuck in the house you don't wanna have fun'Cos all you think aboutYou got it bad when you're out with someone

I chose this song because it talks about how you are missing a day with out your friend and if you think about it you should be happy that your friendsWere there for you in this case Tj was being selfish if you think about it.Quote 5 page #49How come you always hanging around us anyway. Cause I like yall.

The white boy (Jeremy)didnt care the Logans were black he still hung out with them anyway Lyrics Why do you come here ?And why do you hang around ?I'm so sorryI'm so sorrySued Ehad- MorrisseyThese lyrics is about 2 people one always asking why the other is always hangs around..If you think of the meaning of the song You can see that the person should have been happyThat some one want to be there Event 1 Page #115Cassie gets pushed to the road by Mr. Simmis for not apologizing to his daughter in Strawberry.

Lillian Jean should have been already happy because Cassie already apologized and not make her do it again also Lillian Jeans dad should of not pushed her.LyricsThere must be some way out of hereSaid the joker to the thiefThere's too much confusionI can't get no relief

Bob Dylan - All Along The WatchtowerI chose this because the lyrics is about a person does not understandand gets called names.It relates to the theme because you should be happy that you dontUnderstand yet cause when you find out you will not like the answer.Event 2 page # 276Cassie thinks Tj will always be there but now he has to leave.

Cassie should of appriceated how Tj was there like when he was because he may never be there again..Lyricss this the way it's meant to be?Only dreaming that you're missing meI'm waiting here at homeI'll be crazy now you're gone

There's an empty place in my heartWithout my Anna it will break apartIt won't heal, it never fades awayI'll be thinking 'bout you everyday

Basshunter - Now You're GoneI chose these lyrics becauseIt about a guy who has lost a girlAnd he missis her. If you connect this with the theme you can see that the man should have been happy whenhe had the girl and been nice to her.Event 3 Page.. # 187I got me a family. Thats a good pay Id say. Mr. Morrison wants to get a job to help the Logans out.

Mr. Morrison was happy because he has a real family and he didnt care he wasnt getting paid much money.LyricsIf you got a problem, don't care what it isIf you need a hand, I can assure you thisI can help, I got two strong armsI can helpIt would sure do me good, to do you goodLet me helpI chose these lyrics because it talks about a guy being there for you and you should be happy that he is there.Event 4 Page # 169It was Granger land before Logan Slave Land. Mr. Granger came to the Logans and tried to get the land.

Mr. Granger should have been happy with what he has cause he has more land and share croppers.

LyricsDear landlordPlease don't dismiss my caseI'm not about to argueI'm not about to move to no other placeNow, each of us has his own special giftAnd you know this was meant to be trueAnd if you don't underestimate meI won't underestimate youI chose these lyrics because the because it is telling the landlord the he will not leave and as you can tell the guy is happy that he has a place.

Symbol.. LAND The symbol is inside the book the book basically surrounds the land.

The reason why is on there land they do not have to follow any ones rules.
