Chapter Two- TWTWB

1. How did the group of teenagers ascend Tailors Stitch?
2. What are the two special events happening the day after the teenagers leave for the bush?
3. How many days were they planning on staying? How much food do you think is reasonable to bring, split between 7 teenagers?
4. Who is the Hermit and what is he supposed to have done? 
5. Do you think the Hermit will be significant to this story? Why/Why not?
6. Is their decent down Satan’s Steps into Hell dangerous? Discuss what are the dangers, how could they have made it safer, what would you have done?
7. Predict what the bridge signifies

1. With the use of the land rover until they got to the point when they could no longer drive. After that, they packed their packs and walked down Satan’s steps.
2. The Wirrawee Show and Commemoration Day land on the day they leave.
3. They were planning to stay for five days. The food that they take should be enough, and in saying that I mean that as long as each person is carrying at least five items each, then they should have enough food for the five day journey
4. The Hermit is a man that is said to live in Hell. The teenagers made up stories when they were younger about him, he was said to have murdered his wife and baby
5. I do think that he will be significant to the story as the bridge that they cross in Chapter 2-3 could be a relation to the Hermit. Since they are descending to hell where the Hermit is said to live, they have a high chance of encountering him and him being apart of this story
6. The descent of the steps is a very dangerous one and they could have done a number of things that would have made it safer for everyone. The dangers involved are people falling. Breaking bones in their body and getting trapped. I personally would have tied a rope at the top, and then tied it around each member of the group, just so they were safe. They also could have made sure that there was someone camping at the Landie, in case of an emergency. 
7. I would say that the bridge represents the crossover from Earth to Hell. In a sense that is. It could signify them crossing over from “Earth” to “Hell”.
