The Treasure Of Lemon Brown Analysis
Like the character Lemon Brown in the story "The Treasure of Lemon Brown", I have a treasure. When most of think of treasure, they think of money or wealth, but my treasure is my family. I treasure my family so much because I couldn't live without them.

My family is important to me, but it makes me feel sad when I think that some people don't have a family or don't like their own. Lemon Brown and I have a similarity because we both treasure our family, and the losses in between it.

A short story I have about my family is when the time we had a family argument. We were arguing about something that I can't remember, but it was serious. We fought for about a day before we realized that we were a family, not enemies, and we made up.

    The theme of family is everywhere in life, be it in books, television shows, and even in a person’s actual life. It is something that everyone comes in contact with, and reads about, every once in awhile. Family is a rather popular theme in people’s lives. It can be seen on the streets, on television shows, in movies, and even in books and stories, just like the four short stories in this paper. Family will be present in almost all of the American literature stories, so it is not hard to pick stories with this particular theme in it. However in “Desiree’s Baby,” Of Mice and Men, “Wagner Matinee,” and “The Lottery,” family seemed to be more prominent throughout the story.…

    In life you discover that family does not depend on who came from where and if you share the same blood. It depends on if you are there through both the good and the bad no matter the circumstances. “Come what come may, time and the hour run through the roughest day.” One way or another, what’s going to happen is going to happen. We cannot expect everything to be good all the time, nor rely on those we put our trust into. We must be prepared to be let down. Although you may get let down more times than you’d like, you must always remember to get back up and try again.…

    Although I am a little rough around the edges, I have a soft spot in my heart for those whom I love. My family keeps me going through the good, the bad, and the ugly. My parents are still happily married, even through twenty-two years of putting up with four children. My three sisters are amazing. Their names are Shannon, Ashley, and Lynnsy. I do, in fact, play favorites when it comes to siblings. Ashley is my favorite because she is always around helping me with whatever I need. I also am very close to my cousin, Matt Hare, and his family. I consider everyone an acquaintance because I do not like to get too close to people emotionally. If there was ever anything that any of my family needed, I would do everything I could to help them obtain it..…

    The story that I chose to write about was “One Big Happy Family,” by Anndee Hochman. The story is about a young woman whose family life seemed to be the American dream, for those of us looking in from the outside. Her family owned a house in the city like most of us and a house on the beach. The house on the beach was unique with its architecture anomalies, which made the house more a mix and match of parts than like her normal home in the city. The whole family, including relatives from afar, would gather there during the summer to spend time with each other. When in actuality behind her family’s unity, was a demand for conformity to her family’s way of life and thinking. The author finally realized that in order for her to find happiness she had to look within herself and learn to listen to her feelings. Once she learns this lesson, she will be able to break the bounds of her family’s conformity and find the peace of mind that she has always longed for. Several of the stories throughout this chapter discuss different myths of “One Big Happy Family,” however it all seems to come back to the individual, and what they believe in.…
