In chapters 8-10, I saw the word voluminous in the sentence "Triumphantly Matt pulled a thick wad of bread from the voluminous pocket of baggy shorts." I wasn't familiar with the word, but it looked like "volume," which probably has something to do with the size. Also, I used context clues to figure out that it probably means: a lot. The dictionary definition says: (of clothing or drapery) Loose and ample.
I made a connection: in real world, when little kids move to another house, they feel scared, so they usually clutch onto their stuffed animal for comfort, just like Kira holds onto the fabric and Thomas wood.
