The Monkey's Paw
By: Jessica Blandino
A brief taste of what this story is about.
Inference
I think that if Mr. White had not made the third wish things would have gone bad, because if he would have let the son live that would not have been good because he was a monster after he came back to life. " I do not remember the first two, but i do remember the third which was that the wish death, that the paw had granted, and he had to grant that because what's worse than death? Nothing.
Conflict
Mr. White wanted to change his fate after losing the chess game against his son. So when he hears about the monkeys paw and the three wishes he wants it bad, but after the monkeys paw grants him and his wife the wishes it doesnt turn out as good as he thought and starts to realize what is going on. Mr. White should not have wanted to change his fate because Mrs. White used the second wish to wish that her son came back to life but that wasnt such a good idea, then Mr. White realizes whats going on and makes the right decision, and wishes his son was dead again.
Characters
The characters in the Monkey's Paw resolved the conflict by realizing what they had done, and that they needed to fix it, before things got worse. Mr. White did by using his last wish to make his son dead for good, because of Mrs. Whites wish, and in the end it all comes together that he should have lived with what he had.
