Imagine you are a mediator called to resolve the conflict between Jessie and Evan after the events of Chapters 11 & 12. Both siblings have made mistakes and are now facing the consequences of their actions, which have not only affected their lemonade business but have also caused emotional distress and tension between them.

Your Task:

Write a letter from the perspective of the mediator. In your letter, address the following points:

1. Acknowledge the Feelings: Begin by acknowledging the feelings of both Jessie and Evan. Recognize the effort and hard work they both put into the lemonade war, as well as the emotions they must be feeling now—frustration, betrayal, disappointment, etc.

2. Reflect on Actions: Briefly summarize the actions taken by Jessie and Evan that led to the current situation. Highlight the impact of these actions on their relationship and on themselves.

3. Character Development: Discuss how these events have shown the growth or changes in Jessie and Evan's characters. Consider questions like: What have they learned about themselves? How have their perspectives on competition, family, and integrity evolved?

4. Propose a Resolution: Suggest ways Jessie and Evan can resolve their conflict. This could involve apologizing, discussing their feelings openly, making amends for their actions, and deciding how to move forward both in their business and as siblings.

5. The Importance of Family: Conclude your letter by emphasizing the importance of family and the bond between siblings. Encourage Jessie and Evan to consider how they can use this experience to strengthen their relationship rather than letting it drive them apart.
