On-Line Book Club for Kids

THE MYSTERIOUS BENEDICT SOCIETY

Kate’s willingness to break into The Whispering Gallery alone to dismantle the computer demonstrates her commitment and bravery. Why do you think Reynie allowed her to take such dangerous steps? How did Constance show her loyalty? And speaking of Constance . . . what did you think about that little piece of information about her at the end?

I agree that it was amazing to find out Constance was only two.

I guess there were clues in the book like her size, personality, and sleepiness, but they could really apply to any age. Can anyone find other clues that would tell she's two?

Reynie allowed Kate take those dangerous steps because he thought she could do it.Constance showed her loyalty by fighting the wisperer even though it was so hard.I could not belive that Constace was picked to go on a mission when she was only two years old.

Me too!!!!!!!! It looks like everyone thought Constance being two was surprising, but if you think about it, it's kind of predictable.

I think Reynie allowed Kate to do that because he knew she had a strong sense of bravery. He just believed in her. Constance totally confused the Whisperer by yelling NO! after every question it asked. And the fact that Constance is a toddler, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know I was shocked at the last part too! But I thought it was funny that she was resisting for so long.

Either that or naivety! I know some kids think they are invincible simply because they don't know how dangerous something really can be.
