Devon Brooks wrote two books about Maya. In the first one, Maya looks all over the room to find a lost book. She asks for help. In the next one, Maya works hard on a poster after her markers run out.

What is similar about the plots in both stories?

  1. Both stories show Maya facing a problem and finding a solution. (correct answer)
  2. Both stories show Maya traveling to a jungle to find treasure.
  3. Both stories show Maya quitting and never trying again.
  4. Both stories happen at night in a haunted castle.

Explanation: The correct answer is right because in both stories Maya runs into a problem, a missing book and running out of markers, and finds a way to solve it. Choice B is wrong because neither story is about a jungle or treasure. Choice C is wrong because Maya keeps trying in both stories instead of quitting. Choice D is wrong because neither story happens at night in a castle.
