When Roger tried to mug Mrs. Jones he got more than just the ten dollars he tried to steal. Roger took away life lessons such as; working for what he wanted, to forgive, and to never give up on someone. Roger took away that if he wanted something he would’ve had to work for it. He tried to steal Mrs. Jones’s purse that had money in it. Instead of working for the blue suede shoes he wanted, he wanted to take the easy way out and steal it.

Mrs Jones taught Roger to forgive himself. Importantly, she taught him not to give up on anyone. Mrs. Jones…
