Annie Dillard

The main character in this story is called Annie Dillard. In the story Annie and her friends throw iceballs to the cars that pass in front of them. They thought that was very interesting and keeping throw it. One of the cars stops and the drivers (man) gets out. He starts chasing Annie and her friends Mikey. Finally, they got tired and stopped.The man didn’t touch them, he just said a sentence: “ you stupid kids.”

She learns that process is more important than results. In the story, the men keeping chasing Annie and her friend Mikey makes them feel very nervous and a little bit afraid. However, both of them are  fully enjoy it. Even though, when the men just said that: “you stupid kids.” What’s more, she learns life needs more passion that she could have fun. Last but not least, she also learns that to be more tolerant attitudes to different people.


Annie Dillard states, "Nothing has required so much of me since as being chased all over Pittsburgh in the middle of winter – running terrified, exhausted – by this sainted, skinny, furious red-headed man who wished to have a word with us." I think this is the most great quote in this story. Since we though this sentence, we could know that the moral of her story is some experiences are worth the risk if the person enjoys the chase. She really have a great time during that period. Last, reader can experience her joy and excitement.
