The lottery is a story where a bunch of villagers take place in a stupid lottery contest where you have 1/300 chance of death by rocks. The moral of this story isn’t very clear but I think it might be: Chances are chances It might happen to you. My first reason why I like the story because it could have been done in real like. Maybe it could have been a tradition for a certain tribe. 2. I also like the story because there’s the feeling where you don’t know if you’re going to die or not and make the story exciting.
3. I also think about how it could’ve made sense. Maybe the tribe itself had a god and the god said it needed to do a random “lottery” to decide who would die. or the people liked to see people die and set up a “lottery”
4. I also like how there’s a “question” Why would you participate in a stupid death lottery if you don’t need to?? Why would you need to risk dying for nothing?? and how there isn’t a MAIN person and that there are lots of regular people. One of the things that I don’t like about”The Lottery” is that it’s very negative and that it’s just sad.
This book is possibly good for 5th graders and above and will teach a lesson (if you can find it…) The story is negative so I wouldn’t consider this book to children. 5. why I like it is like how the book has a hidden meaning so that proves it might be a good book. The sorta main role of THIS story is Tess Hutchinson who is a little scared about the “lottery” Mr. Summers, the chooser of the paper and, and unfortunately her husband, Bill gets the black paper. And then, Tess gets the black paper and gets stoned to death will complaining ” ITS NOT FAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIR!” Another thing to learn is anyone can turn on you.
