The Treasure of Lemon Brown by Meyers

Greg Ridley met a unique encounter with a former blues singer at Walter Dean Myers' Lemon Brown Treasure. Greg talks to Lemon Brown, listening to his life and seeing the special souvenir he had together, lectures on his father's bad grades and lack of basketball are not that important I knew that. What he has learned is that treasures are not always measured by their monetary value. This idea is the theme of this story and you can learn from "treasure of lemon".

When Greg first met Lemon Brown, Lemon Brown told Greg, "Everyone has treasure, you do not know, you need to be a fool (___ page). Greg smiled When saying "If you have," Greg can guess that poor people do not believe that they can have treasure. When the mobs invaded Lemon Brown 's house, they were looking for money. "The only thing I know is heard that he is talking about some kind of wealth.You know that they found a woman who has big money in a shopping bag The thieves mistakenly believe that the treasure of Lemon Brown is money; as Greg defines, they define treasure as money.

Later, Greg talked about this encounter with Lemon Brown and learned the real meaning of the word "baby". Greg asked, "Do you really have treasure?" (___). Lemon Brown explained that everyone has their own treasure regardless of their circumstances. He told Gregg to tell his son clipping news about his career as harmonica and jazz musician. Lemon Brown said, "In addition to telling him who I came from, nothing to give him to me" (_____ page). Lemon Brown showed his clippings and harmonica to Greg as his son Jesse took him with him during the war. For Lemon Brown, his son used harmonica and clipping as a reminder of his father. When Jessie died, clippings of harmonica and newspaper were left by Jessie and Lemon Brown.
