This is an image of what the weather in April is like. The snow is melting, the streams and rivers and coming back to life, and the flowers are popping up out of the ground.
Here is an example of a flutter wheel. A flutter wheel is a water wheel at the bottom of a chute, turned by falling water. In ADNPWD, Robert makes a very small flutter wheel to entertain him and Pinky.
This is what a crawfish looks like. During Robert and Pinky's exploration, Pinky was bite in the nose by a crawfish. Crawfish bites are known to be some of the worst.
Clarify: Eating frog legs was very common then and even so today. Crawfish (Crawdad's) tend to pinch when they're scared because they feel like they're in danger.
Try: Why is Rob afraid or scared of Becky Tate? What does Rob like to build every spring? Why doesn't Rob's dad smile very often?
Use: When I took a trip to Florida, this past summer, I ate frog legs. Although they tasted a little like chicken, they were the most disgusting things I've ever tasted.
Review: In Chapter 6, the Peck's go to a Shaker meeting. The winter is ending and the spring is just beginning. Rob and Pinky go on an adventure into the woods. Pinky becomes fascinated with butternuts and frogs. As Pinky and Rob look for frogs, Pinky gets her nose pinched by a crawfish. Rob tells the audience about how he was named after the famous major, Robert Rogers, and how he was honored. As Pinky and Rob ran back to the house, Rob's mom called him to the barn. When they looked in the barn, Rob saw that his barn cat had given birth to three kittens.
