I understand. I found the paragraph. It says "Everything was going along just fine until Mama caught me cutting out the circle of tin with her scissors. I always swore she could find the biggest switches of any woman in the Ozarks. That time she overdid it. I was almost to the river before the stinging stopped." What stinging? What switches?
Answered by Ms. Sue
What do you think Mama did to Billy?

Hmm... Possibly hurt him?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes. A switch is a large twig from a bush or tree that is used as a whip. Imagine how it would sting when it is hit across bare legs.

Oh. Ow... Thanks sooooo much!!
