The young girl who narrates this story told in first person is helping her mama and grandma save up money for a chair. All of their furniture and other things were burned in a fire, and her mama wants a big comfortable chair more than anything. She is a waitress and works hard on her feet all day and is very tired when she gets home at night. Every night she puts her tips in the jar, and the little girl also puts half of all her money in it. When the jar is full, they go to the store and buy a huge, comfortable chair. This is a wonderful story about family, love, and sacrifice.
