| In the Creative Short Story THANKYOU, M'AM,
Langston Hughes has written an unforgettable tale. It is the story of a young boy named
Roger who decides to steal a purse. The problem is he picks the wrong purse. This one
belongs to Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones, a name Roger is never going to forget. Instead of running away with the purse, Roger finds himself a captive, being dragged by the shirt Collar to the woman's home. "You ought to be my son. I would teach you right from wrong. Least I can do is wash your face. Are you hungry." What Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones gives to Roger in the next few minutes is more than dinner and ten dollars for blue suede shoes. Her admonition to "behave yourself, boy!", gives one boy a chance for a better life. |
