Why did Jo disapprove of Jack’s ending of the story of Roger Skunk? How did she want it to end?


While telling the story, Jack has told that Roger Skunk smelt very bad. He needs company Jo with the help of the Wizard he gets a rose smell but Shunk’s mother does not like it. She takes Skunk before the Wizard and hits him to change the smell. The Wizard does so and Roger Khunk starts smelling bad.

Here the daughter of the narrator does not agree with this. She force that Roger Skunk should retain the rose smell and the Wizard should hit the stupid Mommy hard. Jo, does not like the mommy should hit the Wizard. But the Jack’s ending is appropriate since a child cannot think as a mother. Skunk’s mother wants that Skunk should have originality. In this context Jack tries to make Jo understand his viewpoint. He has no desire that Jo should form a negative opinion about mommy. He tries to explain that the mommy should be loved, respected and well behaved by her child.
