Not Helping Your Case: When Mr. Clarke tells his kids that they have been unhelpful throughout this trip so far such as not getting any firewood, Marissa protests that they didn't know where to look for it. Her father points out that they're in a forest, which is filled with firewood.

comment
Covers Always Lie: The artwork depicts snow on the ground around Ivanna, even though there is no mention of such thing in the story and it is implied to take place in the summertime. The only snow that appears in the story is at the beginning, but that was only part of a story that Mr. Clarke was telling his children. Also, Ivanna's dress is brown even though the book states that it is grey. Plus, the mean look on her face and synopsis summary on the back make her seem as though she will be an antagonist when she's actually helpful.
