In this chapter, Isabelle’s godmother, Mama Jeanne, gives Hugo some ice wrapped in cloth for his hand. Why doesn’t she give him ice in a plastic bag so it won’t melt all over?

• She wants the ice to melt on Hugo as punishment for stealing the automaton.

• Plastic bags we see everywhere today were not invented yet and not common until the 70s.

• She wants to avoid using any materials that could harm the environment.
• When she brings things home from the store in plastic bags, she throws them away so she doesn't have any in the house.

When Hugo mentions the automaton, Isabelle’s godmother begins to cry and tells the kids it’s best not to bring up the past. We don’t have enough information to know for sure why, but what is your guess about why she is crying? Mention textual evidence to support your thinking.
