Breath, Eyes, Memory Chapter 13-19

When reading this section of the book Sophie leaves from her home in New York City and goes back to her home country of Haiti. When arriving to Haiti she meets with her Tante Atie and her best friend Louise, They began to speak and Tante Atie telling Sophie she looks just like how she did before she left for NYC. The part that surprises me while reading this was when Atie explains to Sophie how Louise taught her to read and she even wrote poems. I found this to be interesting because when Sophie wanted her to come to school she didn’t want to go because she taught that kids teaching her to read was pretty absurd but then she gets taught to read by Louise. So it makes me wonder what made her change her mind and take lessons from Louise and not from Sophie when she was younger.
