I feel that the author's message is not to compromise or put oneself in a difficult
situation just to gain the approval of others.

(1) Couldn’t you pass out from sewer gas?
(2) Dylan smirked at the satisfied glee on Gary’s face.
(3) Dylan had heard the story before.
(4) His dad wrote scary stories, and other ones about spaceships and magic.
(5) Only the scary stories clinched the deal.
4.
What struck me most in the novel was the vivid description of the overwhelming
stench that hit Dylan as he jumped into the sewer, making me feel like I could smell it
too. Also, when Guhiak suddenly appeared and rendered Dylan unconscious, it
created a tense moment in the story. Fortunately, it seems that the story's ending
didn't take a darker turn.
5.
I believe this novel is well-suited for children, as it imparts the importance of
using their own judgment. It's a valuable allegorical story that can teach them
important life lessons.

Answer
1
Dylan decided to go into the sewer because he wanted to prove himself to his
friends and be accepted by them. He chose to follow their challenge, which involved
entering the sewer, as a way to fit in and gain their approval.
2.
Guhiak did not want Dylan to die because it would have serious consequences,
including angering his own kind and putting his new friends in trouble. Guhiak was
aware that killing a human child, even accidentally, would likely lead to severe
repercussions. He cared about his relationship with both the buggybears and his own
kind and wanted to avoid any harm to them.
3.
Because he plans to stay in a human house for one night using Dylan's appearance.
