The effect of gamma rays on man in the moon marigolds
The effect of gamma rays on man in the moon marigolds (TEOGRITMM) is a famous play written by Paul Zindel about a girl named Tillie who lives in a unstable household. In the play Tillie has a passion for science and conducts an experiment on how gamma rays effect marigolds. Her project is so good she got to present it at a science fair. In science class I did a also did a project and got to present it along with the other students to out parents. Like Tillie I also like science and conducting experiments. Tillie is very respectful towards her mother even though her mother is selfish and unfair. My mother isn't selfish or unfair, but I believe I'm respectful towards her. It isn't easy to relate to this play because it is so dramatic and emotional.

True, the play was hard to relate to. Although interesting note on how Tillie still respects her mother, I can relate to her there too. But here's a question, is it respect she feels towards mother, or fear? Probably more respect than fear, but I wouldn't be surprised if Tillie was just a little afraid...
