This is Your Answer
Explanation:
The morning after her husband returns from the shipwreck, Elizabeth informs him that she wants the family to move to a safer place. Their current camp is not only exposed but also very dry and hot. She tells him that the previous day, she and her sons crossed the river and explored more pleasant, treed land on the other side. The trees' shade offered comfort, and if they built a house up in one of the large trees, they would be safe from jackals.She describes a perfect tree for the project, one whose trunk is nearly forty feet in diameter. The limbs are very long and extend straight out from the trunk, making them perfect platforms for a structure. Surrounding the grove of trees are wide fields of tall grasses with many wild birds, which they could hunt for food. On the nearby beach, they had discovered turtle eggs to provide much needed protein.
Elizabeth says that the longer she and her sons stayed in the area, the more charming it appeared, even enchanted. If they could live there, she would feel "perfectly safe and happy."
