Long Answer

1. Winnie’s parents and grandmother are distant, proper, and orderly, while the Tucks are cluttered, warm, and inviting. The freedom at the Tucks house and their loving nature causes her to feel an instant connection with them. Eventually, her connection to the Tucks makes Winnie appreciate her connection to her own family and the Fosters become a driving factor in Winnie’s decision to choose mortality. (Various chapters)

2. At the beginning of the novel, three seemingly unrelated events occur, Mae is riding out to meet her family, a man in a yellow suit comes to Winnie’s house, and Winnie is thinking about running away. Though these three events seem at first to be unconnected, it is later revealed that the life of the characters intersect as Winnie searches for the music and is kidnapped by the Tucks. The man in the yellow suit witnesses this kidnapping, setting the events of the novel in motion. The theme All Things Are Connected continues throughout the novel into the conclusion, when Winnie—as a girl—gives a toad immortality that later makes its way to Tuck after she has died.
