The Pearl
The book The Pearl by John Steinbeck is a really good book he really knows how to bring you into the book like you are there with Kino and Juana. Kino is the husband in this family he is dark skinned, he has black hair, and he has a mustache. Juana is the wife of the family she is dark skinned too and she also has black long hair. Kino and Juana have a baby named Coyotito altogether they make one happy Indian family. What is their story? Where does it all start? Is it a happy or sad ending?
It all starts with them has a family and then the baby gets stung by a scorpion. Kino is really mad because he never got to the scorpion fast enough. So they went to the doctor and this doctor is very prejudice. He was very rich he only like money and Kino and Juana didn’t have any. So they become pearlers which are people that search for pearls.
Kino was out looking for some pearls and he found some but none of them are the right size to pay the doctor. Finally he finds the pearl of the world which is the biggest pearl ever and it cost a lot more than others he was happy. The weird part is right when he finds the pearl of the world Coyotito gets better weird right.
At the end of the book that’s the sad part. Kino and Juana are heading out to get out of town and they of course are getting followed and there are three trackers. So Kino and Juana go and hide right when one of the trackers go by the baby starts crying and the tracker thinks that it’s a coyote and shoots the baby right in the head. Then Kino stabs the tracker then he’s down and he goes and kills the other two with him. Then Kino and Juana have no need for the pearl since the baby died so they throw it back into the water. That’s my essay response on The Pearl.
