Sunday in the Park

The article "Sunday in the Park" by Bel Kaufman tells us a story about children play in the park and two families have a problem between them. Larry’s parents sit on the bench, and Larry plays in the sandbox. Joe is another boy who throws the sands at Larry.  Larry’s mom tells his don’t do that again, but Joe's father don’t agree Larry’s mom. Although Morton wants to with Joe's father, he does not want. They stand up and argue at each other. Then, Morton’s family leave park. Larry began crying. Morton and his wife think it is better to leave park and not to fight with them.



opinion and interpretation

after reading this story, i felt that kind of problem are very normal.  i think Larry's father was doing right. fighting couldn't solve the problem.  but another kid 's father shouldn't had that kind reaction to Larry's father.  and he should teach his child not to do this.
