Explanation:

The title of this story is “Thank you Ma`am” and the author is Langston Hughes. In this story Roger learns right from wrong and when it applies. At the beginning of the story it starts with him running up to a woman and grabbing her purse. The woman catches him in the act and brings him to her house to teach him how to act.

Roger, the main character learns an important lesson in this story. Roger does not have much money, so he turns to petty theft to get new shoes. Roger himself didn’t seem like a bad kid but it’s a person’s actions that describe them most of the time. Roger learns that theft and stealing is wrong and can have horrible consciences. A woman that he steals from catches him and makes him stay in her house until she sees fit for him to leave.

This also helps support the theme of this story which is that you should never steal and instead work hard for things you need or want.  Roger, in this story tries to steal a woman’s pocketbook but gets caught red-handed. The woman that he stole from drags him up the street and into her house, humiliating the boy as part of his punishment. When they get to her house, she makes him wash his face. The woman feeds Roger and talks to him to make sure he learns his lesson, so he never steals anything again. Before she turns him loose, she gives him ten dollars to get some shoes on his feet, and then lets him go.
