Officials said the lost little boy and the two family puppies wandered up to a mile in the dark, even across a highway, but it wasn't until Saturday afternoon that members of the search team found him sitting by a tree, the two puppies nestled (依偎) against him. The little boy didn't say anything, according to the rescue team member Jerry Gentry, but instead just opened his arms up like, “I'm ready to go.” “When I first saw him, he was like, ‘Momma, I got cold.I slept in the woods last night.The puppies kept me warm.’He told me that the dogs slept up against him.And I'm sure their body heat kept him warm，” said his mother, Sarah Ingram. As the child was placed in an ambulance to be taken to a local hospital for examination, the puppies were watching where he went. As word went out that the child was alive and well, family members cheered and cried for joy. Close to 300 people from North Carolina and Virginia joined in the search to find Jaylynn. The boy spent Saturday night under observation at Halifax Regional Hospital and ate a double cheeseburger, a hot dog, strawberry ice cream and French fries. Meanwhile, the furry heroes, their tails wagging, were rewarded with food. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。一个3岁的小男孩失踪21个小时后被找到时，有两只狗依偎在他的身边。原来在人们为小男孩担心时，这两只狗一直陪伴着他。 1．According to the passage, who is Jaylynn Thorpe?
