Question

Read the excerpt from "A Journey West." Now, I was thirteen and I'd been working my whole life. I was the leader of the family (after Momma and Daddy, of course). Everyone knew I was a hard worker who handled a plow and team as well as any man. I could gentle a horse with a look and a whisper. So my family always listened to me. They all knew that Rosetta liked to make up drama whenever she could. The first-person point of view in this excerpt allows the reader to understand Rosetta's frustrations. Momma's concerns. Nate's feelings. Daddy's hopes.
