Can't imagine that.. the book is perfect.Amagine wrote:Would the story be different if the two of them weren't together? What if only Myra had went on the trip? Or only William?

Yeah, it would have been impossible to go to the trip without William because he carried most of the luggage and it was also impossible to find another way to get away from the burning forest without Myra's help.gali wrote:Mjgarrison wrote:I think they brought alot of wisdom and insight.

They made the trip possible.
I think that both of them played an important role throughout the story.
