Question

What was Jack trying to tell Jo through the story of the skunk? What was Joe's reaction?

Answer 1

Answer:

The stories told by Jack were well taken by Jo. But the ending of the Skunk's story did not satisfy her. She believed that the wizard should have hit back Skunk's mommy and Skunk would have kept smelling like roses

Jack actually wants jo to know and understand that parents always love their children as they are. Smelling good or bad is immaterial against the natural biological bond. But this thing is jo's beyond understanding .
