summary of chapter 3-4

In the novel the Chrysalids there are many things going on between David and Sophie they are hanging around each other basically everyday and they seem to be falling in love with each other. When David gets this feeling that Sophie's Father does not like him. In the book they also got to one of Davids favourite spots where he shows Sophie a steam train they have a brief argument between each other about it and David brings Sophie back home.

In Chapter 4
Once when David is not with Sophie he spends time talking to Rosalind his half cousin. They are not having a normal conversation though they are speaking to each other through their minds. This is when we find out that David can communicate with people through his mind(Telepathically). Uncle Axle finds David seemingly talking to him self and finds it strange. So he asks questions of David then David tells him that he can talk to certain people through his mind.

I think that there is a relationship starting to form between David and Sophie and that they will fall in love together. And I think that Uncle Axle will tell Davids father  about his strange conversations with his cousin and that David will be disowned and go live in the forests.
