Other book units may be found at The City of Ember is a favorite book with my students. There's life inside the seed, which will emerge as it grows, so maybe that's some kind of clue to help Lina get thinking.2 Thank you for purchasing The City of Ember Book Unit.
Before Lina leaves, Clary gives her a little bean seed and tells her to put it in dirt and water it. They may not have the answers yet, but those answers have to be somewhere-maybe even outside of Ember. Clary answers that she doesn't know, but that she does know that life comes from inside a seed somehow, so they (the people of Ember) must have come from somewhere, too. Lina asks Clary what she thinks about the Unknown Regions, and whether Ember is the only light in a dark world. #City of ember chapter questions and answers portable#
Part of the problem is that none of the lights in Ember are portable they're all fixed to buildings. Lina has heard of similar ventures out into the Unknown Regions, all of which have failed.
Clary calms him down and sends him on his way. He basically had a panic attack out there and ran back to Ember before he could get lost or fall in a hole or get eaten by monsters. Between sobs, he tells them how he went outside of Ember, to see what there was in the darkness. They recognize a guy named Sadge, who works in the Supply Depot. It gets louder, until a man stumbles out of the darkness. Suddenly, they hear a strange sound, like someone wailing. Clary, one of the greenhouse workers, has always been friendly to Lina, so they talk a bit (not about happy things, but about the fact that a bunch of potatoes are dying mysteriously, and potatoes are a staple of Ember's cuisine). Lina has to carry a message to the greenhouse, which makes her sad because that's where her father worked before he died. She's a kind woman, so Lina asks her to look in on Granny and Poppy while she's gone, and Mrs. Murdo lives alone, and doesn't work anymore since her shop closed. 
The next day, Lina stops at their neighbor's place.
Lina chalks it up to the ramblings of an old man. Granny explains that her father had heard her grandfather (the seventh mayor) saying that something was lost and he couldn't find it.Granny is still riffling through things up in the apartment. Lina finds Poppy tangled in a hank of yarn, and rescues her.As Lina starts to clean up, she asks where the baby is.Problem is, Granny doesn't know exactly what she's looking for-only that it's important.Lina comes home from her messenger job one day to find the apartment torn apart because Granny's looking for something.
