The Lottery

The title of the story makes us think that they are going to win money. The lottery we think of is how we get numbers and then they pull the number win the BIG BUCKS. However, that is not the case for this story. The lottery they are talking about is drawing to stone someone. When I read the title, I was planning on reading a story about how some family wins the money and lives happily ever after. However, I began noticing weird things about the city and the people. The little boys were finding rocks and they had to make sure everyone was present before they could begin. Each person has to draw a piece of of paper and the one who picks the black dot must then make there famiily pick one individually. THis is not a normal lottery. Killing someone definately would never take place at a lottery like todays.
