Little Store (seeing 1)
The way Welty rights The Little Store is in chronological order. It starts off with her describing her mother and how she always gets asked to go to the Little Store and she willingly does it. She loves to walk a couple blocks away. She play with her jumping- rope and jumps hopscotch. She remembers her stories of going to the store and getting groceries. The songs she hears and the smells she smells, it's all part of her memory that she explains to the readers in order from what she remembers of her trips. THe ones she remembers most clearly are the memories that have the most affect on her, such as the lyrics of the song. The way she writes appeals to many senses including hearing, sight and smell. She makes it feel as if she's still there describing it. Her details in the writing make you feel like a child experiencing it also because they are so vivid and descriptive.
