Slylock Fox
January 24th, 2008

Slylock Fox and Max mouse are stranded on a small island. Rescuers are on the way, but a storm with huge waves that will swamp the island is expected to arrive first. What materials from the island will Slylock use to quickly create a flotation device?
Answer — Coconuts float. Slylock will wrap and tie the beached fishing net around a collection of coconuts.

I love to read what is in store for Slylock And Max but just once can there not be a way to catch the bad guy. Honselty I won’t read any more if the bad guy can’t get away once.

I don’t think Slylock should go on a flotation device in the sea because it is too dangerous. If there are going to be huge waves that cover the island, there will be huge waves in the sea. Slylock should climb to the top of the tree and wait untill the rescuers come. It may be dangerous, but it is safer that going into the sea, even if he is on a flotation device.

I agree with Meygan and Jessica too. It is always obvious that in every Slylock puzzle the bad guy gets caught. It would be an interesting twist if the bad guy gets away with the crime.

I thought it was the tree trunk with the net around it.

I think that he will get the net and capture the bird blow it up tie it ,hang on to it and float away.

You could also kill one of the animals and use one of the bones to cut down the tree than cut the tree in half! Put the net in the center, bring along the coconut and the extra meat from the animal for the journey! If you get ship wrecked the logs will float and you can use them as some sorta ship craft.
Thats what I would do!!!
But slylock’s way is MUCh easier!
