Walk Two Moons (Book)

The note in "Walk Two Moons" is from Sal's mother encouraging her to find hope and adventure in her journey. It reads, "Don't judge a man until you've walked two moons in his moccasins." This inspires Sal to learn about her mother's past and gain a better understanding of her own identity.

In Chapter 27, Sal realizes that both her mother and Phoebe's mother left home because of a similar longing for freedom and independence. She understands that their departures were not a rejection of their families, but rather a necessary step in their personal journeys to find themselves and pursue their own dreams. Sal comes to see the parallels between their situations and gains a deeper empathy and understanding for her own mother's actions.

Phoebe's teacher, Mr. Birkway, assigned the task for the students to judge the characters in the book "Walk Two Moons."

Sal's grandmother cries after seeing Old Faithful erupt because it reminds her of her deceased husband, Sal's grandfather. The eruption of Old Faithful was a special memory they shared together, and seeing it again stirs up emotions and nostalgia for her.

Page numbers are different in every book, and sullen is used many times in this story.

One notable time is in chapter 41. The quote was "The chickens were fidgety, the cows were skittish, and the pigs were sullen and glum."

It was in the beginning of the chapter, while she was talking about staying the night at Phoebe's house.

Phoebe tells her friends that her mother left to find herself and that she will be gone for a while. She also mentions a mysterious man called the "lunatic" who has been leaving messages on their doorstep.

Phoebe in "Walk Two Moons" has red hair.

Yes, there is an oxymoron in "Walk Two Moons" when the main character, Sal, describes the phrase "silent noise" while reflecting on the conflicting emotions she feels after her mother leaves.

Sal is disappointed in Mrs. Cadaver (not Rushmore) in chapter 28 of "Walk Two Moons" because he feels she is moving on too quickly from his mother's death, as she starts going out on dates with Mr. Birkway. Sal interprets this as Mrs. Cadaver being disloyal to her mother and not mourning her enough.

In the book "Walk Two Moons" by Sharon Creech, beneath the floorboards in Sal's room are papers and letters that give her insight into her mother's mysterious disappearance. These papers help Sal piece together the events leading up to her mother's departure.

Phoebe's story was like the plaster wall at Sal's old house in that both were crumbling and seemingly on the verge of collapsing. The plaster wall reflected the state of Sal's family, unraveling and in need of repair, much like Phoebe's family story that was unraveling as she learned more about her roots. Both the wall and Phoebe's story needed to be rebuilt and strengthened in order to move forward.

Chapter 4: That's What I'm Telling You

In chapter 4, Sal walks to dinner with Phoebe. The blind neighbor, Mrs. Partridge feels their faces, and talks to them a bit. They head in to dinner, and they have blackberry pie. Sal thinks on how blackberry pie reminds her of her mother, and she gets sad. She also realizes how sad Mrs. Winterbottom also is.

Some hyperboles from the book "Walk Two Moons" include phrases like "as large as life," "I nearly died laughing," and "as flat as a pancake." Idioms include "the apple of my eye," "barking up the wrong tree," "hit the nail on the head," "raining cats and dogs," and "don't judge a book by its cover."

Phoebe went to Sgt. Bickle to report her mother missing. She brought evidence that she collected from home. She showed him the noted left by the stranger, as well as some strands of hair that she found in the house.

• "...I felt like a mule saying it..."
• Beth Ann was white as milk.
• "...her voice did sound exactly like dead leaves."

The letters were thought to be randomly left at Phoebe's house by a lunatic, which turned out being by the son that Phoebe's mom had given up when she was younger. However, they were actually newspaper quotes that the neighbor, Mrs. Partridge, thought were nice. She would have her daughter write them down for her, and she would drop them off on the Winterbottom's porch.

Gram and Gramps take Sal to an American Indian community. She sat with Gram and Gramps who let her take a puff off of a pipe, which she really did not like. Gramps bought her one, but told her it was for looking at, not for smoking.

Two moons refer to a celestial phenomenon where a planet has two natural satellites orbiting around it. This is uncommon in our solar system, as most planets have only one moon. The most famous example of a planet with two moons is Mars, which has two small moons named Phobos and Deimos.
