"The Monkey's Paw

Imagine being given three wishes and then picking what to wish for. In “The Monkey’s Paw” Mr. White gets this precious opportunity. “The Monkey’s Paw” describes the advantages and disadvantages of having three wishes.
“I wish for two hundred pounds!” This was Mr. White’s first wish. This would probably be one of the most common wishes of all time. Wishing for money is a very selfish wish and very common one. However, 200 dollars today isn’t that much money. That’s how you knew that this story was made a long time ago.
After that selfish wish then comes a good smart one. Which is exactly what Mr. White does in “The Monkey’s Paw.” This old man wishes for his son’s life back because his son was dead. This is the wish that the person makes for someone else. Usually people make this wish because they learn a lesson from the first selfish wish. Which is exactly what Mr. White did.
For some extremely odd reason Mr. White makes a wish that is life changing just like his second command. Mr. White wishes his son dead. He makes this wish because after he wished for his son back he realized something. He noticed that his wife loved his son more than him. When Mrs. White heard a knock on the door she sprinted down stairs and found out that her son disappeared. She loved him more than anyone and that is exactly why Mr. White had to wish for his son to be dead.
There are many disadvantages and advantages to having three wishes and that is shown in “The Monkey’s Paw.” If you happen to get the chance of having three wishes make sure you pick them carefully or you could turn into Mr. White.
