Rather busy & don't have time to reply in detail -- but -- Adam,
you seem to be barking up a very odd tree indeed here:

Ummm... when else _could_ she have read it? The _only_ time
for her to read it (and for the children to know she has 
read it and say so) is after "the Narrator" arrives but before 
he departs -- because she departs with him. Ergo, he was in
New Viron long enough for her to read it.

Gotta scuttle,
