About This Quote

He was warm, partly because he had on many layers, and partly because boys whoa re part wolf and part wind do not get cold.” This is a quote from a story about a boy named Jack . He has a friend named David. The two of them play in the woods. David gets cold so he asks Jack to keep him warm so that he can stay out longer in the woods.

Jack agrees but when David goes to sleep, Jack sneaks away from the campfire to see what David looks like when he's asleep. He sees that David is much smaller than normal and then Jack realizes that he doesn't have enough clothes on to keep himself warm. So Jack takes off all of his clothes and puts them on his friend instead.

Now both of them are warm and they can play in the woods all day long without getting cold.
