David finds out that his little sister is a very quick learner and might be better than the rest of the gifted people. In chapter 12 Rosalind, David and Petra run away because people are finding out about their gift and its only a matter of time before people start looking for them.
Chapters 9-10
In these chapters David little sister sister Petra seems normal but is she really a normal child or not. David's friend Alan died because of his wife. You also hear David saying a handsome his cousin Rosalind is. I didn't really understand these couple of chapters very much because apparently Petra is now 6 and I thought she was just born.

chapters 3-4
In the third chapter of the Chrysalids the main character David
dreams that his father kills Sophie. The fourth chapter David’s father wants to
kill some of David’s Uncles horses. In my opinion I don’t like this novel
because it’s really slow to get to the point and it’s really creepy. I do not like the fact that people could be
so judgementally about the way people and animals are created.
