The Help

Author: Kathryn Stockett
Genre: Historical Fiction

So far I am loving the Help and I have almost finished the book. Ms. Skeeter is doing fine but has alot of work to do. She has alos been to the white library to get some books for Abileen to read because Abileen can't get these books at the black library. But while Ms. Skeeter is there she finds a book with all the black laws in it also on the inside of the book has a bad word written on it. Ms. Skeeter steals the book and puts it in her satchel. But then oneday at the bridge club meeting Skeeter leaves her satchel behind she quickly has to go back before Hilly sees whats inside because she has the law book and all the papers about the maids. When Skeeter comes Hilly doesn't say anything. Skeeter looks inisde the bag and the law book is gone. Skeeter asks for it back but Hilly says only if she prints this in the news paper:

Hilly Holbrook introduces the Home Help Sanitation Initiative. A disease preventative measure. Low-cost bathroom installed in your garage or shed, for homes without such an important fixture.
Ladies, did you know that:

-99% of all coloured diseaes are carried in urine
-Whites can become permanently disabled by nearly all of these diseases because we lack immunities coloureds carry in there darker pigmentation
-Some germs carried by wites can also be harmful to coloureds too

Protect yourself. Protect your children. Protect your Help. From the Holbrooks we say, You're Welcome!


Hilly is so so mean! She just lis too! But Skeeter decides to print it but she does something to get her back! The next day after the newspaper came out with this article about the toilet seats. Hilly wakes up and outside her house are tons and tons of toilet bowls! Because also in the article Hilly said leave all old coats out her house but Skeeter mixed it up and put leave all old toilet bowls outside my house! I laughed so muck at this! Skeeter does not have any friends now because of this but she is hanging in there! She still has Abileen and Minny!
