What is pollys reaction when the trio comes upon a boy fishing

When the trio encountered the boy fishing in the woods, Polly signaled Amari and Tidbit to hide in the pine trees. When she started conversing with the boy, she tried to exhibit boldness and fearlessness but truly her heart was beating.

Explanation:

As Polly talked with the boy, the boy revealed to her that he has been monitoring their movements. Polly was startled when the boy told her that. The boy whose name is Nathan later hid them in his barn and fed them. When his father discovered, the trio escaped and continued their journey.

The question is culled from "Copper Sun" which was written by Sharon M. Draper.

Copper Sun is a story of a 15-year-old young girl, known as Amari who is divided and separated from her African home when some white men visited her village. She was sold into slavery in 1738. Also, the story revealed the life of Polly, a 17-year-old indentured servant.

Sharon Draper is an American author known for writing stories for young adults. She is also known as a New York Times bestselling author and also a recipient of Margaret A. Edwards Award.

"the monkey's paw" is a rare story in that the theme is actually stated in the story. sgt. maj. morris tells the whites that the old fakir who put the spell on the paw said, "fate rules people's lives and those who interfere with fate do so to their sorrow." the message is a warning, but mr. white doesn't believe it. even though sgt. maj. morris makes it clear that he tried wishing with unfortunate results and he tries to throw the paw on the fire,   mr. white makes a wish for 200 pounds only to find that he receives the money when herbert dies in a factory accident. according to the fakir, then, because mr. white had wished for something he should not have had, his son lost his life.

the second wish that mrs. white encourages him to make is for herbert's return--one week after his death. when the strange knocking begins at the door during the windy night, mr. white panicks, believing that the previously dead but still mangled herbert could have walked home from the cemetary and is now at the door. because he fears what his wife will find if she opens the door, mr. white makes his third wish--for the noise to stop.

therefore, he uses his three wishes and to his sorrow, loses his son and disappoints his wife, who fervently believed that their son was at the door. she wanted him back, regardless of his condition.
