Chapter 17 - In this chapter Mina had been sent to live with the Kaufmann's. Then, Mrs. Kaufmann got sick and Mina was sent to live with the Bickenbach's. When she came inside their house, Lisette welcome and took her to their room. Lisette gave Mina her night gown because Mina's was too short for her. When Mina's father returned, he brought a milk cow. I like the friendship between Mina and Lisette, but did not like when Mrs. Kaufmann got sick.

Chapter 18 - Is about when Mina's dad came back and got sick. Mina went to call Dr. Schubert, but he did not come. Papa gets sicker as the time pass. Mina had a dream about seeing a glimmering indian. In the dream, she asked the indian if he can help Papa. This chapter is sad because of Papa's illness. I don't like that, but I liked when Mina met the glimmering indian in her dream.
