We ate the butterfly cookies but just couldn't bring ourselves to try the grape KoolAid. I'll bring it to our next meeting to see who is brave enough to try it (for drinking, not hair dying:).
Here are some of the things we talked about:
- Jake and E.D. were both outcasts in the family for different reasons
- Destiny and Winston saw right through to what Hannah called Jake's "sensitive side." We laughed about the drooling, floppy basset hound running to meet Jake.
- Hannah LOVED Wolfie (although she thought the name was ridiculous). She thought he really moved the story along when he appeared (and butted everything in sight).
- We talked about what we thought would happen to the characters after the story.
- One of the lessons was everyone should live up to their potential.
- Part of the reason the play was so important was that it gave everyone a chance to work on something together.
- Neither Jake nor Destiny's parents paid much attention to them.
Am I forgetting anything, Hannah?
Do the rest of you have anything you'd like to add?
