Question

Summer of mariposas chapter 12

Answer 1

Answer:

As they journey to Hacienda Dorada, the girls come across a donkey with a cart. Pita is convinced she can communicate with the donkey. Juanita and the twins insist on riding the donkey to save their strength. The donkey seems harmless, so Odilia agrees. Juanita notes how peaceful life is without iPods or cars, and Odilia muses, “This is how our ancestors must have felt” (228). Through Pita, the donkey asks if the girls want to stop for some water and rest. The donkey runs off the path with Odilia’s sister in its cart. He stops by the mouth of a small cave. Odilia realizes that the donkey is the warlock, but not before he casts a spell on the girls that renders them unconscious.
