Chapter Three

Chapter Three started off by er talking about how her Grandmothers Store was her favorite place in the world before they moved
from Arkansas. Maya described it as a present left by a stranger, and everyday it felt like opening the same gift over again.
She then went on to explain how her daily life was, helping out with the the store and in the farmyard with all the animals.
Then,near the middle of the chapter, the ex-sherrif Mr. Steward warned Maya's uncle Willie that a black man was messing with
a white woman, and that he should hide out in the Store until "The Boys",referrring to the Klu Klux Klan, was coming to do a search for the man.They hid in the store and were safe.
