Johnny Tremain How has Johnny’s view of Mrs. Lapham changed over time? What do you think has caused this change in him?

Mrs. Lapham is Mr. Lapham’s daughter-in-law. She manages the household with care and efficiency. She is unpretentious and does not bother with genteel manners. Although she and Johnny have disagreements throughout the novel, he eventually realizes that she is a dedicated mother who does the best she can for her family. I think Johnny has just matured through the book and is able to look at people beyond his own interests.
