Answer:

Oh, I loved the book Wonder!

“Like a lamb to the slaughter” refers to Auggie having been home-schooled by his parents in an effort to protect him from the taunts and bullying that comes with having a terrible facial deformity. But Auggie's Mum decides it's time for him to taste the real world. But his Dad refers to the sentence « Like a lamb to the slaughter ». Meaning they’ll be putting August in danger, or in a dangerous and different environment.

In other words: “Like a lamb to the slaughter” refers to Auggie having been home-schooled by his parents in an effort to protect him from the taunts and bullying that comes with having a terrible facial deformity.

Answer:

The given lines are taken from the book "Their Eyes Were Watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston.

Explanation:

Zora Neale Hurston's <em>Their Eyes Were Watching God</em> tells the story of African American women trying to survive in the world of the white authority. The narrator Janie tells her friend Phoeby about her three husbands and the life she had to live, trying to survive.

The given passage is spoken by Nanny/ Janie's grandmother after her first marriage to Logan Killicks. And for Nanny, the union was a successful deal done, with land and a lawful husband, and all things that white women have. The passage reveals Nanny telling her granddaughter how a man and a woman should love equally. A man must have his pride and love a woman right, not kiss her foot and leg. Just like Nanny said <em>"when dey got to bow down tuh love, dey soon straightens up</em>". If he's kissing her foot and leg, meaning treating her too well, then there's only a short time when he will get back to his usual self.
