But, when he found the raft his knowledge of fun just expanded. After that, him and his grandmother went to the river to row the raft more often. “The birds kept us company the whole time, soaring, swooping, and singing.” He learned that you don't need company to have fun, you can just enjoy nature. “Some mornings, Grandma would make a bagful of sandwiches and a thermos of icy lemonade. Then we’d put on our bathing suits, grab some towels, a lawn chair, and an inner tube, and pole upriver to her favorite swimming spot.” This quote from the story shows how Nikki and his grandmother became closer.

He also learned that he doesn't need other kids to play with, but instead he could embrace the things of nature. To sum it all up, I think Nikki learned no matter the age or where you are you can still have
