Status Updates From The Jacket

One important part from the story is when he was upset because he didn't get the jacket he wanted. The speaker was describing how ugly his jacket looked. He also said he got bullied for it. "I stared at the jacket. I wanted to cry because it was so ugly and big".(1) This shows how Gary didn't like his jacket. He even threw it over the fence. He then realized that he had to be grateful and went to get it back.

One part of the story that I found unfortunate was on page 1 when Gary, the main character of The Jacket, received a jacket that he despised. It was apparent that he hated the jacket when he stated "I wanted to cry" on page 2 because of how ugly the jacket was. In addition, in his unappealing description of the jacket, he stated that it was "the color of day old guacamole", proving that he did not like his jacket.

Gary is a grateful kid. He asked his mom for a jacket and got a really ugly green one. In the story, Gary "threw the jacket onto his brothers bed and looked at it for a long time before slipping it on and going to the backyard, smiling a thank you to his mom" (4). This shows that even though Gary didnt like the jacket hes still grateful.
