The Glass Castle

The book starts off about this girl and upbringing. She was boiling some hotdogs in the late morning in her trailers small kitchen. She was still wearing her pink ballerina dress that stuck out like a tutu, which she was spinning around in front of the mirror earlier thinking she looked like a ballerina. At this time she was about three, a little young for cooking but her mom thought she was mature enough to handle cooking. Next thing you know her dress caught on fire and was rushed to the hospital. She had a few good burns but nothing she couldn't handle. She enjoyed being in the hospital, because everyone was so nice and she never had to worry about running out of stuff like food or ice cream. She also had her first experience with chewing gum which she was stunned by the sharp sweetness. Her parents were not your typical parents, lets just say they had interesting ways of dealing with life in general. She had two other siblings Lori and Brian, i felt that was in the same boat as her just going with whatever their parents wanted them to do. They would visit her all the time, her mother didn't like that she chewed gum because it was a disgusting low class habit, her dad almost got into a fight with the doctor because didn't like the fact that she had bandages on her burns because he said burns need to breathe. A few days later her dad came in and snatched her from the hospital without consulting the doctor. Once she had got home the first thing she did was cook more hotdogs which is weird because of what happened, but she seemed fascinated with fire. She would steal her dads matches and burn them behind the trailer. Everything was back to normal until one day her dad came in the middle of the night hollering that they need to pack up because they are hitting the road. I feel like this book is going to be about her interesting adventures with her parents and I'm very interesting about there first adventure.
