**Significant Quote:** Pg. 107 //"She eyed the big red female and tried to weigh disgust against wisdom. It seemed the big gal// was //intent on protecting her, something Beck couldn't figure out but had to consider. With night coming on, she might do well to reconsider that big, warm body."// ======

**Explanation:** I chose this quote because it shows how you can find love anywhere or from anyone. This huge monster that was chasing Beck captured her and instead of torturing her, she kept her safe and kept her warm during the cold nights. Beck did not want to accept that a monster, a smelly and scary monster that captured her while camping, would take care of her like her very own child. Beck believed that if something took you away from what you love most, then they're the enemy and you have to try to stay away from them. But now, Beck is starting to believe that the monster is trying to protect her from something. ======

**Answer:** I think the monster captured Beck, then kept her safe from harm so that no one else could hurt her. I believe that the monster, whom Beck named Rachael, is protecting her from the other monsters out in the forest. Rachael and Beck have an encounter with them and they start throwing pine cones at them. Therefore, Rachael stole Beck away from her husband to keep the other monsters from going out to find her themselves. Rachael cares for Beck probably because Rachael doesn't get along with the other monsters. ======

**Connection:** The connection I made to this quote is that you can find love anywhere. It says, //"It seemed the big gal was intent on protecting her, something Beck couldn't figure out but had to consider."// Even in the people you think are your enemies, you can find love. One day, the person will just start to show you love and you won't know how to react because they're supposedly your enemy. But anything can happen and people can change. It could be that your enemy heard their best friend is going to do something to hurt you and your alleged enemy doesn't agree with that. Then your "enemy" could become friends with you and try to protect you from their best friend. That is kind of what is happening in the quote. ======
