The story “Raymond’s Run” is about a girl named Squeaky who is responsible for caring for her brother, Raymond. We learn that Raymond has a mental disability and is sometimes a challenge to care for. Think of a time when you have been responsible for caring for someone else. Your experience could be babysitting for a neighbor’s child, helping to care for a pet, or helping an elderly relative. If you had not had this experience, think about a time someone close to you had this responsibility; or, imagine what being in this situation would be like. What lessons did you (or could you) learn from this experience?
