When You Trap A Tiger - Chapters 3 & 4
from Cultivating & Integrating Literacy Across the Curriculum
Standing in the rain, at the front door of their Halumi, Lilly and Sam watch as their mother sneaks in through a window and realize that this is something their mother must have done as a kid. When they get inside, they get silk pajamas from their grandmother's cupboard and notice the pile of boxes blocking the path to the basement. Soon enough Halumi comes home and castigates everyone for worrying about her. It is obvious that Lilly and Halumi have a very special relationship and understand each other completely. They spend time getting things ready for dinner and Lilly notices that all is not just as it should be with her grandmother. WE are made aware of the fact that she is very old-fashioned and very traditional in her ways in some ways but not in others.
