Question

MS. FONG: Let’s take a look at page 50. What does the author mean when he writes, “The sounds of the leaves rustling in the wind soothed Tyler’s aching heart”?
ALICIA: Tyler is feeling homesick because he is spending his first significant piece of time away from home during his first year of college.

HECTOR: Good point! Also, the home Tyler grew up in was in the north woods. Because of this, he most likely grew up listening to rustling leaves.

DANI: I agree. In fact, on the previous page, the author writes about how Tyler “always loved the fall colors and the fresh air of the woods.”
