My Side Of The Mountain Ch.20

It was finally the end of February. During the end of February Sam and Frightful saw the forest changing. It was melting slowly and animals were coming back. The edible plants that Sam had longed for returned. He grabbed all the edible plants he could find or get. Sam would never forget this day I bet.
One day Frightful spotted another duck and flew up to the sky and Sam said " Frightful...you can't leave me now!". Then Sam quickly held out a piece of meat, hoped Frightful would come back to him. Frightful looked the hawk for a moment and then she folded her wings and dropped down fast and landed on Sam's fist. Right after that a young man about the same age as Sam said " I saw that...your the wild boy, aren't you?". Sam spun around and saw him shivering in the cold. He told Sam his name was Matt Spell. Matt stayed with Sam for a while and asked Sam if he knew anything about the wild boy. Sam paused for a while and then said " Yeah I've seen him around here. Then Sam spent the rest of the time telling Matt about how the wild boy looks like and how he survives in the wilderness. After Sam told Matt about the wild boy they made a deal...the deal was that Matt wanted to spend his spring vacation with Sam then he won't print anything, he's just going to write the stuff down. That night Sam imagined Matt, Bando, and Dad. He was wording the article for Matt. When he went back to his tree he saw his old friend, Jessie Coon James the raccoon. Sam never saw him for months. He was laying on the bed. Soon he left and disappeared into the forest.
