1.) characters get intorduced: this is important for the overal story and some of the struggles/hopes of the kids.
2.) T.J tells the kids about the man being burnt: the kids didnt know this because their mother wanted to protect them from that knowledge, but T.J's mouth runs like water, so he scared Little Man and Christopher John.
3.) Jeremy joins the kids on their walk to school even though he gets in trouble for it: this shows that unlike his family, who are racist to the core, jeremy is a good kid who just likes the Logan family, despite them being black.
4.) Cassie and Little man, who are sharing a classroom despite their grade differences, are given books that are worn out and dirty, and we see the pride in both little man and cassie, which plays a huge role throughout the book.
5.)Cassie goes to talk to her mother about her and little man getting a whipping because they didnt accept he books: their teacher, mrs.crocker, has already confronted the kids mother and their mom just takes the books and begins to fix them. covering the work "Nigra" with a piece of paper and some glue, she makes the books less offensive because she wants her kids to have an education.
6.) Both cassie and little man's pride prevented them from taking the books. this shows that even though it was really hard for african americans to get an education at that time, they were willing to risk it then be called offensive words and given dirty old books
