 * 4. Two terrible accidents change Charley’s life dramatically in just two years.Summarize both events and explain how they have affected Charley.**

The first accidents was the car accident by Travis, Amy's brother on their way back home from school. Because of this accidents, Charley was hurt badly especially with her leg, and had to stay in the hospital for long. Moreover, she couldn't walk properly without her walking stick until she met Coyote. She not only missed her school days but also had to suffer from constant pain. The next event was that Charley lost her mother in a plane crash. She was a famous photographer on her way to Brazilian rainforest to work, however, because of this accident, Charley became a negative and passive.


 * 5. Mrs. Davis says Sadie and Coyote are “best friends,” but at the beginning of the book, the dogs are very different. Compare the behavior of the two animals. How do they act around humans? Around food? Around each other?**

First of all,Sadie was raised by human, Mrs.Davis, therefore, he was very friendly and active around human. For example, when he sees Charley, especially with food, he would jump on and lick her face. Sometimes, he would roll around Charley, expecting her to play with him. On the other hand, Coyote was raised in wild that he feels uncomfortable around human. He's afraid of them and scared to get closer to them. Therefore, even when he travels around the forest, he's very quiet unlike Sadie, who just charges and is not afraid of anything. Furthermore, when Sadie senses of any food around him, he would charge at Charley and takes it right away yet, as for Coyote, who would wait for a while to make sure no one's around and took it in the beginning but as time goes by, when Charley took the liver in her hand, he took it. I think it was a sign that he feels less protective around Charley. However, when Coyote is around Sadie, he's different. He likes to play with Sadie, chasing around with each other.
