Q9: Did Jody find the fawn?
Ans: Jody found the fawn somewhere in the jungle. It had first approached backward and lifted its face to his and turned its head with big, wondering motions that shook Jody through the stare of its liquid eyes.

The fawn scented Jody and then Jody rubbed one hand on its soft neck and pampered it gently.
Q10: What does Jody remember about the fawn that his father had told him?
Ans: Jody remembered that when he was tired, he rested for a while, and had put the fawn down.
