How is Beanpole helpful during the trip???

Beanpole is a new member of the group and actually he is really helpful in so many ways. It was a good thing Will and Henry stumbled upon him because without him they would be lost and would never even reached the White Mountain. Here are some reasons why Beanpole is useful.

Beanpole is able to speak two languages, French and English. Since now they are all in Paris, Beanpole is able to translate a lot of things to Will and Henry. This is useful because the group now understands what is going around them and also receive help. Here is something from the book. Page 97 WE ate the last of food in a place where the trees were dense in front of us, without any buildings. The reason lays in the slabs of stone, some upright but more leaning or fallen, which stretched away into the darkness of the wood. The words carved on the nearest one were:

CI-GIT

MARIANNE LOUISE VAUDRICOURT

13 ANS

DECEDEE FEVRIER 15 1966

The fist two words, Beanpole explained, meant" Here Lies," "ans" was years and "decedee" was died.

So with the help of beanpole they were able to know a lot of things.

Beanpole also helped because he knew the way to the white mountains better than Will and Henry. So with this they will be able to get there easily because Will actually let Beanpole join the group since he trusted that Beanpole knew the way better. Also he helped them escape the people who captured them. So I think Beanpole has earned trust from Will.

I think they will get to the white mountains because if not the book won't really makes sense but also because with the help they get with Beanpole around it would be easier to reach the place and not really get caught. One last thing is that Beanpole likes to invent things so maybe with his inventions they would be able to get out of trouble.
