Pretend you were a book character (Boy), answer these 2 questions. Please! I have horrible imagination, Im stumped.

1) As I sat on what I thought was my deathbed, I believed that leaf was connected to my life force. That once it became dry and fell, I would die along with it.

2) The leaf was special to me because I believed that we were the same. Just waiting for the day we were blown away in an angry storm. We both were just barely hanging on until we died.

Hope this helps! If you need me to change anything just let me know, and I'll be happy to switch up my answer a bit! :D

a brush. Everywhere I looked I saw mountains of rare goods piled high. Bales of silk and tobacco. Chests of
tea! A parrot! A monkey! Oh yes, the smell of the sea was intoxicating to one who knew little more than the
smell of the trim cut lawns and the fields of the Barrington School.
