      I don't think Madam Zeroni specified to the curse which mountain she wanted to be carried up.
      Also, I like to imagine that there was no intervention from Madam Zeroni's spirit or whatever, just that the curse was given a set of rules "Yelnats must bring Zeroni up mountian" and followed it like a computer follows coding. Stanley Yelnats and Zero were related enough to the two people mentioned in the curse's coding that the curse recognized them as the two people mentioned in it's script and lifted the curse.

    You know something? I didn't think too much about one scene when I was a kid, but now it's a really good scene.
    The last scene with Kate Barlow was her sitting at Sam's boat in the middle of the desert and she says "it's so hot, Sam; but I feel so cold...". That meant that she felt hollow inside and then Sam (as a hallucination, obviously) appears and kneels next to her and says his iconic line "I can fix that". That clearly meant that Sam is the only person that could make her feel whole again. Tragic, but good writing. 👍👍

    I had the same thought, but after hearing you say it. I realized that the first Stanley didn't climb Gods Thumb, since he was climbing before he came to America from some other place. Stanley just climbed some mountain that also had water at the top. The first Stanley only had to climb Gods Thumb once, after he was ambushed by Kissing Kate Barlow.

    The mountain Stanley and his great-grandfather climbed was an entirely different mountain than the one in Latvia, where Elya Yelnats originally lived before moving to America like Madame Zeroni suggested.
    Also in regards to Zero holding on to the spade part of the shovel, Zero is still a kid. He was in a stressful situation where his only friend almost died.
    Stanley had that song sung to him as a child. That song has been in his family generations. He felt it was appropriate to sing since he survived the same way his great-grandfather did. History repeated itself. No food, no water, but he found salvation. Stanley was relieved.
