Welcome back, readers! We are getting close to Christmas!

This week we will be picking up our books and reading Chapter 14, A Tree-jan Horse. Decker, Tinsel, and Bulb were heading towards the power plant the last time we saw them. This chapter’s title is what is called a play on words.

There is a legend of a great army trying to take the city of Troy. The city walls were so fortified that the army could not get in. So, they devised a plan to trick the city. They built a wooden horse and hid some soldiers in it. Then, the army sailed out to sea just past the horizon so that it looked like they left. The city took the horse, a Trojan Horse, as an offering back into its fortified walls. At night when the city had fallen asleep, the soldiers snuck out and unlocked the gate letting the Spartan army into the city.

I wonder what this has to do with Tinsel, Decker, and Bulb.
