1. A mother, her kids, and their taxi driver go to a a little cottage in Maine, and the kids dont seem very happy because the place that they are staying isnt very nice, and they didnt really want to go.
2. I feel good about this book, and think that its a pretty easy read, and i can understand it well.
3. I have noticed sibling love as a theme in this book so far because Lise the older daughter, protects her younger brother Free, and helps him through a lot even though he hasnt started to talk yet and hes five.
4.My favorite character is Lise because she protects her little brother becuase he doesnt tak. And she is always there to help her mother.
5 My least favorite character Mrs. Biggens because when she had to watch free and lise she fed them cold soup and sandwiches and gave free sandwhiches that he was alergic too, and didnt take care of them well, and was really mean to them.
6.My prediction about what is going to happen next is that Free will start talking, and they will start liking the place they are staying in in maine.
