Chapter 3 Notes

Question: Why did Lennie feel that it was ok to just go and grab that poor girl's dress like that? Yes, I know that he's slow but shouldn't he at least have some common sense to not touch or take what's not his. 

Prediction: I think further on in the story, Lennie's past will catch up with him & his little "rape" story will be told to Curley

Reflect: The fact that the girl would say that Lennie raped her just astonishes me. I get so annoyed with people who judge others just because of the fact that there is something different about them. Why would she lie when all she had to do was tell Lennie to stop, or to back off. That would've been more humain then to go and say that she had been raped by him.
