LIBRARY
BY WALTER DEAN MYERS ILLUSTRATED BY IVAN KRAVETZ
Look back at what you wrote on page 238. Tell a partner two things you
learned during reading. Then work with a group to discuss the questions 239
below. Look for details and examples in Mr. Linden’s Library to support

your ideas. Before you begin talking, work together to decide on the
discussion rules your group will follow.

1 Reread pages 240–242. Which of Carol’s thoughts and actions show
she is naturally curious?

what each person has
to say. Look at the

speaking.
2 Review pages 246–251. What startling discovery does Carol make
about Mr. Linden’s book? What warning does he give her when she

asks him about it?
Speaking Tip

Wait patiently for

your turn to speak.
Don’t interrupt!

3 At the end of the story, Carol pleads with herself not to open the
