Crawling into that small hole would be difficult, even with the old man’s short and slim body, but it was doable.

Literary Analysis #6 “It had been decided that the message would be posted on every path throughout Forest, so that any new ones coming would see it and turn back. Matty was the only one who knew all the paths, and who was not afraid to enter Forest and travel in that dangerous place” (92).
