“How Far She Went” is a short story set on a farm in the summer of the 1970s. The two protagonists of the story are the grandmother and her granddaughter. Similar to the relationship between the mother and Connie in the previous story, the granddaughter and grandmother also did not get along. At the beginning of the story, when the grandmother asked her granddaughter to help her pull the weeds, she would throw tantrums and run away until she couldn't run anymore. The conflict between grandmother and granddaughter arises when the grandmother tells her granddaughter that she would stay with her when she goes back to school. When he heard this news he ran away until he could no longer run. Also, similar to Connie from "Where Are You Going", the granddaughter had a conflict with a group of bikers that her grandmother did not approve of since the child was underage and the men were much older. Later that night, motorcyclists harassed both the grandmother and granddaughter by pushing them off the road. This short story related to the theme of independence on the part of the granddaughter wanted to leave her grandmother's farm. In this story, when she ran away, she didn't run that far because she was going to go back home. She was still dependent on her grandmother despite wanting independence. Similar irony but with a twist, when they were harassed by the group of bikers,
