Chapters 4-5

In chapters 4-6 many interesting things happen. During these few chapters, Matty walks over to Jean's house to visit a puppy that will be his soon. When he gets there he sees that its him and its mother are ill and pretty close to death. Matty leans over to pet the puppy when something happens. The puppy is alright! A little later when Matty enters his clearing in Forest he sees a limp from with its leg hanging on my a few small pieces of flesh. Matty can tell that the frog is on his way to death so maty picks him up and begins to dig a hole to bury him in but " then, after a moment, while Matty knelt, still mystified by what was hapening, the frogs body twitched"(Lowry 42). He realises something strange.

What do you think is going on whenever he touches a sick or injured creature?

  1. I think that Matty's special gift is to fix everything when he touches them.
