Grapes Of Wrath 5

For this blog posting, I read chapters 14-16. In these chapters, John Steinbeck says that migrants drive along route 66 to get to California. Along the way, they stop in towns and are constantly told to go back because the California border patrol will just turn them back anyway. The Joads family's dog died. Grandpa is becoming sick, he is having a stroke. He ended up suffocating and dying.

I thought this was a very sad part of the book because both the dog and the grandpa died. The deaths were so sudden and just so unexpected that it made me change emotions dramatically while reading the book. I was happy they were going to California then all these deaths happen.
