read the excerpt from "the monkey's paw.”
mr. white took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. "i don't know what to wish for, and that's a fact," he said, slowly. "it seems to me i've got all i want."
"if you only cleared the house, you'd be quite happy, wouldn't you? " said herbert, with his hand on his shoulder. "well, wish for two hundred pounds, then; that’ll just do it."
his father, smiling shamefacedly at his own credulity, held up the talisman, as his son, with a solemn face, somewhat marred by a wink at his mother, sat down at the piano and struck a few impressive chords.
"i wish for two hundred pounds," said the old man distinctly.

how does herbert’s reaction to wishing on the monkey’s paw differ from his father’s?

The reaction that Herbert has towards the monkey's paw is significantly different from the reaction that his father has towards it. In the case of Herbert, he is very playful and relaxed when he hears about the paw's powers. He convinces his father to wish for money, but remains calm and humorous throughout the whole experience. On the other hand, Mr. White appears to be a lot more worried about the paw, and shows concern and nervousness throughout the whole ordeal.
