Feathers Part 4 / Chapter 17 Summary

  • When Frannie finally gets home after walking through all that snow, her mom is waiting in the kitchen and reprimands her for dragging all that snow in. Frannie doesn't care—she just runs up to her mama, hugs her, and asks her if she's feeling better.
  • They talk a little bit about the power of memory, and how it's odd that some memories stick and others don't. Then her mama tells her to help mash some of the potatoes for dinner.
  • Sean gets home and he's equally delighted to see their mama in the kitchen cooking dinner. It's like they have their good old normal family life back—and it feels good.
