Novel Study
Safely inside, Jack asks his sister to find the Pennsylvania book that will transport them home, but she can't find it. As they search for the book, a piece of fruit flies through the window. They find the monkey sitting in the window. It looks as though it's trying to speak. Annie watches the monkey and decides that it is telling her to take the piece of fruit to Morgan. It's the second item they need to help free her from the magic spell. Once they realize this, the Pennsylvania book appears, and they are able to return home.

Inquiry into Language - Novel Study Afternoon on the Amazon

Chapter 9 - Deeper in the forest, the children look at the book again for clues about where to find the item Morgan might need. They read about vampire bats that come out at night to bite their victims and drink their blood. Jack is worried because the rain forest is growing darker. They agree to return to the tree house but can't decide which way they should go. Annie hears Peanut squeaking and sees it scurrying across the rain forest floor in what she believes is the right direction. They follow the mouse back to the tree house.
