He Got Their Attention
After Boris’s initial appeal for everyone to keep quiet, the family ignored him as they would any other adult since adults do that. The hesitant attention of everyone at the campsite was eventually drawn to the boy’s pleading, and eventually there was complete silence. People were at last prepared to listen to what he had to say to them and share with them.
Boris shared his thoughts with the grownups after he had attained his goal of gaining their attention at the camping site. Boris, much to everyone’s amazement, did not tell a typical, run-of-the-mill horror story around the campfire. Instead, he divulged the information that he had originated from Mars and that he was currently on Earth to save the world.
