Notes and Questions

  • Perhaps you’ve noticed that Ellen’s mother’s clothing resembles the peacock in both color and pattern. Perhaps you’ve noticed a small green bird on the mantle in Ellen’s home. And perhaps you’ve observed Ellen’s bookend and the titles of her books and her stationary. What do these things suggest?
  • Did you notice the color of the text pages? What does the changing color suggest?
  • What do you think is the significance of the acorn on the key and on the garden gate?
  • Do you think the peacock is really under a curse?
