  2. Chapter 15 begins with Aunt Pearl trying to help Alfred to make sure he is okay and not dieing.
    When Aunt Pearl was seventeen she wanted to sing in a Apollo Theater.
    Then she met Uncle John and they got married after they got married Uncle John got sick and died and never got to meet the twins.
    Chapter 16 begins with Alfred fighting Griffin in a boxing match.
    Alfred knocked out Griffin really good and hard so he couldn’t get up and fight again.
    Then he won the fight and knocked Griffin off his feet.
    Then Alfred went to the school gate and saw Harold and Lynn handing out leaflets and said to Alfred this is for you.

  3. In chapter 15, Aunt Pearl was worried about Alfreds leg and face because he was limping and had a cut on his face from the fight. Aunt Pearl was talking about when she was 17 about a man that heard her singing in the church choir, and he wanted to sign her up for a stage show. Aunt pearl wanted to know how he did at his boxing match, and he won his match, and he also said to Aunt Pearl no because he doesn’t want to quit fighting.

    Chapter 16, was about Griffin who had skinny arms and had to fight with Alfred, and Alfred’s face felt as if it had been stung by hundreds of bees. Alfred knocked down Griffin with powerful hands. Alfred won the round against Griffin. Alfred was at the Epsteins and Lou told him that he was fired for one day.

  6. Chapter 15 takes place at aunt pearl’s apartment. Aunt pearl found out about the fight. Pearl told Alfred dream that actually happened to her when a guy wanted her to perform but pearl’s mother wouldn’t sign her up. Pearl told alfred to keep boxing so the same thing didn’t happen to him.

    Chapter 16 Is when alfred fights in a boxing match against Griffin. Unfortunately alfred lost the match. The next day Mr. Epstein saw that alfred didn’t look good so mr epstien gave Alfred gave him the day off.

  7. n chapter 15 starts out with Aunt Pearl worrying about Alfred because he looks hurt. Then Aunt Pearl started talking about when she was seventeen and her dream never came true because one person didn’t approve of it. After that Aunt asked him if he won the fight and was wondering if he was going to quit.

    In chapter 16 Alfred is in a fight with Griffin and is getting badly beaten. Then shortly after that Alfred knocked Griffin down in the fight and won. Now on the way to Alfred’s house in spoons car Alfred started having flashbacks on how hard Griffins head hit the ground.
