I am proud of Alice being so proud of her big brother. I am, however, not so sanguine about his actual effectiveness.As for Dill; well, being the youngest brother in a family of adventurous trebuchet-builders has a very different dynamic. Maybe they would catapult the jack-in-the-box up into Maryland!

Dil’s brothers would find a way to turn it into a catapult.

All my big Brother would ask me to do, was to pull his finger…strange how that worked.

Dill’s brothers would find a way to make the jack-in-the-box fire the cinderblock into the next subdivision.

Dill’s brothers would launch the Jack-in-the-box into orbit with their trebuchet, where it would wreak havoc on communications satellites.
