Were you surprised by the ending of the story?  It was a miracle that Barry was reunited with his family!

Barry’s family now lives in NYC.  Do you think that he will ever go back to live in New Orleans?  Would you if you were in his shoes?

Do you think that Barry’s father made the right decision by going back home?  Should they have tried to leave the city?

Why do you think Barry’s grandfather left an ax in the attic?
