==Mike Costello, Paul’s friend’s brother, was simply leaning against a goalpost, and was killed by a strike by lightning. (pg 49-52)This played into Erik Fisher’s Football Dream; if Mike was gone, then Arthur could be Erik’s holder in football. Also, with this occurrence, the readers learn more about Erik’s character when he laughs and makes jokes about Mike Costello’s death. Later on, his death leads to a heart to heart conversation with Paul and Arthur. This is a key moment when we learn about their friendship and watch it grow. ==



==Common strikes of lightning in the Lake Winsdor area (around 4:00 p.m. everyday) cause muck fires, a fire that burns the organic material in the soil layer. These fires cause fret within the Fisher family at first when they move to Florida, but when they learn that they have been burning for almost forever, they become accustomed to them. (pg 12-16) ==
