Their reunion is so joyous. ![]() As he reaches the closed bedroom door he hears a noise. The world outside (in Sarah's room) is huge and filled with danger but Truman keeps going. He finds a way (1,2,3) to climb out of his tank. Truman knows he must catch the number 11 bus heading south. He waited a thousand hours - tortoise hours, that is - until he could wait no longer." Will Sarah come back? Why did she take that big pack? And what's going on with those extra beans? "she kissed her finger and touched it to his shell and whispered 'Be Brave.' Then she left." It was so big "thirty-two small tortoises could ride along in it - but zero tortoises did." Sarah gives Truman extra green beans - this is very puzzling and then: ![]() Truman watches Sarah start her day in a different way - eating a huge banana, putting on a new sweater, strapping on an enormous backpack. The city is filled with busy people and loud noises but Truman is peaceful and pensive and so is Sarah until the day something strange happens. Truman is a small tortoise who lives with his friend Sarah. ![]()
