How does the author create mystery in this story? by alternating events from the past and the present to show giselle's unpredictability, readers are continually guessing how giselle will react to new developments in the story. by focusing more on scenes with dark star than on scenes with her parents and siblings, readers wonder about giselle's relationship with her family. by explaining in detail giselle's love for books about horses but never explaining how she learned to ride, readers question giselle's ability to care for dark star. by mentioning giselle’s cast at several points in the story but never directly explaining how she broke her arm, the author adds interest for readers as they try to infer what might have happened.

Precisely the author keeps the interest of readers not describing clearly the  kind of relationship in Giselle's family. By doing this, readers had to imagine and assume how it was.  Instead, the author described better scenes with Dark Star and the influence of books about horses in Giselle's life and actions.  Also the fact that she broke her arm but not referring to it in detail leads the readers to imagine and guess what could have occurred.

B) The author begins with loud noises drifting away into subdued silence to set the scene for the old book to speak.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
