4. Read the description of the rink, the space, the players on p. 57, paragraph 3 ("I will never forget..."). What effect does the author create using this poetic writing style on a simple kids' back wood hockey game? How does Saul feel at this moment?

8. Explain the significance of this quote for Saul's character development: "I would not feel lonely or afraid, deserted or abandoned, but connected to something far bigger than myself.

9. On p. 65, Saul remembers his grandma giving him advice: "We need mystery... Mystery fills us with awe and wonder. They are the foundations of humility, and humility, grandson, is the foundation of all learning." Explain what you believe this quote means. E.g. what's the
value of mystery? Of humility? Do you think Naomi's advice can be considered universal? (universal means it could apply to anyone, anywhere)
