For this posting I read chapters 17-20. In these chapters, the Joads stop in the desert. Noah decides to stay and says he can live off of fishing. Also not leaving the desert is the Wilsons. When the Joads finally get across the desert, Ma tells them tha grandma died. The Joads stop at a migrant camp and rest. When Ma makes dinner, some kinds from different tents help her. While helping, they tell Ma about a government camp that is really nice with really nice toilets. Casy takes the blame for knocking out a police officer and is arrested. Tom says he is going to look for the government camp.
Again, this was a really sad chapter. Not only did the grandpa die in the last section, but now grandma dies. I think its kind of crazzy how he is slowly killing off all of the characters. It keeps me wondering who the next person to die will be and when they will die. I also thought it was very brave of Casy to take the blame and get himself arrested. I honestly don't know if I would've done the same thing myself.
