The bean trees

this is my opinion about my book : "The bean trees" . i think it's not difficult to read but it's not easy to understand . i can understand each short paragraphs but i can connect them together . so i only understand each paragraphs about what but i don't know the book say what . i think the story is told by a girl . first,she told about an accident of Newt Hardbine . then , she told about Newt Hardbine . and then she transfered to her mama . after that, she told about her first job etc . i couldn't find the main idea of the story . there fore i just reach each short paragraphs . sorry about that . thanks you for your reading . see you next time
