In the story Searching for Summer there was a man named Tom and a lady named Lily. They got married and then after that they went to look for a bit of sunshine. They got married and went a little trip to find that sunshine. They drove their scooter to look for this sunshine but on the way it broke down. It so happens that this scooter broke down in a little town of Molesworth. A man named Mr. Nokes greeted them who you could say came off them as a little different. He was nice enough though to offer a room to them until their scooter got fixed in his little pub that he owned. Tom and Lily instead found this purse that this lady had left there by an accident and went on to ask Mr. Nokes where bouts they would be able to find the owner. After Mr. Nokes told them where they could find Ms. Hatchings house they were off to return the purse to this lady. When Tom and Lily finally came to Ms. Hatchings house where they gave the purse back to her and then Ms. Hatchings Son who was blind offered Tom and Lily to stay with them. Tom and Lily agreed to stay with the Hatchings and when Tom and Lily woke up the next morning they were amazed to see the sun shining high and bright.
In A Son from America Samuel went to America at suck a young age because he wanted to make himself a better life then his parents and he also wanted a better life for his parents. He didnt want to have to go out in the sun every day and work for long days and only have enough to make it by he wanted more. He went to America under the impression that he will be able to give back to his parents and be able to make there life easier by sending money to them so they wouldnt have to work anymore and also so he could not have to work very hard either. This is why he is sending them money every month to his parents.
Tom and Lily left Ms. Hatchings house knowing that Mr. Nokes would come looking for them in the woods. So Tom and Lily left and returned to Molesworth and there Mr. Nokes asked them where they got there tan skin and they told him that they had ran into a friend far away where they were able to see the sun for a little bit. Then they go ton their scooter and drove away never mentioning the sun ever again to anyone.
The reason Samuel came back to his parents town is because he had been away from his family for a long time and wanted to check up on them. I believe that it had to be more then twenty years ago when he saw his parents. He went to his parents home
