It had become clear to Miss Cackleberys that James was not going to be able to walk all the way to where Miss Cackleberys wanted. She wasn’t sure how to get him there until she realized, they were walking right next to a river, they could make a boat! “James!” she snaped.

“What?” James asked.

“Grab some logs were going to make a boat,” instructed Miss Cackleberys.

Neither of them knew how to make a boat, but after some trial and error they made a small raft.

They put it in the water and went down the river both not knowing that the straw they used to put the boat together was slowly coming undone.
