What character have you read about in another story that is clever in figuring out clues? Use a Venn diagram. How are they like the girls? How are they different?
When the professor finds the gold, he immediately decides to make sure it is real before giving it to Jada and Tiana. Was this the best decision? What else could he have done? Talk about it with a parent or friend.
Pretend you are Misty. Write a letter to Aunt Jada and Aunt Tiana explaining why Mr. Whiskers should be permitted to stay in the house. Don’t forget to include that if it weren’t for their father, they wouldn’t have the gold coins! Share your letter.
