According to the article, Annie is the youngest of four travellers from North America and the only woman in the group. They camp at a small village called Providence in the Amazon jungle and witness a shocking occurrence involving a deer which had been captured by the village dogs. The deer develops injuries on its thin neck as it struggles to free itself from the rope tying three of its hooves. Later, they had a sumptuous meal of well-prepared fish and a previously caught deer with rice and some bananas as well. As the travelers headed to their tents for a night sleep, it becomes apparent that the men had been astonished by Annie’s ability to look at the struggling deer at Providence without the feeling of remorse.

The town is portrayed through the words of Scout Finch as a small, sleepy town, in which “a day was twenty-four hours long but seemed longer.” Due to the Great Depression, the people of Maycomb, even the well-off citizens like Atticus Finch, are all very poor and the exaggerated length of the days appears to owe to the fact that “there was no hurry, for there was nowhere to go, nothing to buy and no money to buy it with, nothing to see outside the boundaries of Maycomb County.” The poorer citizens have to rely on trading with farming supplies and livestock as they, already indigent, were so further crippled by the depression that they have no real money to spend. This is more deeply explored on Scout’s first day of school, in which a boy named Walter Cunningham is offered a quarter by the teacher to buy lunch but refuses because the Cunninghams “never took anything they [couldn’t] pay back”, including money. From Scout’s various descriptions telling of Maycomb to be “a tired old town”, along with the situations and behaviours of its residents, it is clear to the reader that the district is suffering at the hands of the depression and is not a particularly thriving place in terms of modernisation or cultural development. It is a fairly basic town without basic attributes such as paved roads, instead featuring dirt paths which turned to “red slop” after rain, and the townspeople’s traditional
The first significant trait of Ultima’s owl is being able to comfort Antonio when Ultima is not there. One way is by singing at night to comfort Antonio and his family. The first night Ultima stayed with them Antonio recognized the owl in which, “It’s soft hooting was like a song….seemed to say that it had come to watch over us.”(13) That same night Antonio had a dream in which the Virgin smiled at the owl’s goodness. Another way the owl comforted Antonio was during a walk home after Lupito’s death in which the owl had seen throughout the night. As he walked it sang, and “Ultima’s spirit bathed me with its strong resolution.” (23) During rough times the owl sung to help Antonio and his family deal with such tragic incidents.
I would take branches off dead trees, and that would last me the night. The rabbit I caught finally let me go home. K: How did you catch it? Z: I had been sitting in a small evergreen tree, and the rabbit hopped into my sight, and I scoped it out; it had stopped to clean itself, only for a second. In that second I took my first shot, and hit its chest, killing it immediately.
Sam said that he was not ready to go home yet and his father said he could stay for a few more months. One month later his family came back and got him. They stayed in the Catskill Mountains to live. This story of survival taught me that kids could live in the wild, but it would be tough. I liked the book because it taught me some survival tips.
