Jonah’s father was a powerful man. But sometimes he thought his father was too demanding. Jonah wanted to play. His father said, “Do your homework, and clean your room first.” Jonah thought it would be fair to do his homework before he played but he wanted to clean his room after he came inside. “We have rules at home that are just like laws,” said his father. Jonah’s father was a lawyer. He had graduated, or finished school. Jonah knew his father helped people who had been arrested and helped to fight prejudice. Jonah thought about how other people felt about his father and the content of his character. This made Jonah decide to organize his closet and clean every section of his room.
