My book is a funny book that tell about a young family that gets a dog. The dog Marley thinks he is doing good but he is really recking the house soon enough Marley goes to far and eats the chair. The family did not take it lightly the mom said get rid of him and the dad agreed but Cassie and her little bro Louie begged them not to but the dad put the add in the paper "Big Yellow Dog - a little crazy but with a pure heart free to good home" but anyone that came by always said no thanks. Finally the family found the right home their home when marley saved baby Louie from falling right off the refriaraton and then at that very moment the mom and dad agreed that Marley may be a pain but he saved their sons life so he deserved to be in their home.

Fairest

Halo!!I'm reading Fairest by Gail Levine. I love this author. Did you know that she is the author of Ella Enchanted!!! Aza is born into the world singing. She was abandoned at an early age. Some inn keepers found her. They loved her and took her to their room and named her Aza. She grew up, but turned out hideous. She usually was not allowed to serve most guest who would complain. Sometimes gnomes stayed at the hotel. They thought she was beautiful. They loved her htun color to her hair. She has the best voice in all the land. She learned to illuse (through your voice to make it seem like it is coming from a different place). She is serving the misstress.

Summer of the Monkeys

Summer of the Monkeys

This summer I have read the book, Summer of the Monkeys. By the title it sounds very silly and immature, but however, it is a very mature book. It talks about this poor family who needs money REALLY bad. The main character figures out how to get some money for his family. That way is to.....catch some monkeys. The main character found a sign at his Grandpa's shop that was advertising that some monkeys escaped from a circus when a train ran into a car. Just before seeing the advertisment he saw them in the woods. But will he be able to catch the monkeys and earn the award money for his family? Find out if you read the story!

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Done!

I have finally finshed ALL the Diary of a Wimpy Kid's EXCEPT for Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days. Each story was very funny, but not so funny it was just boring and immature.

In the first book, you learned that Greg's diary is NOT a diary. It is a journal. You learned about the characters and their reactions to problems and physical stuff.

In the second book, the story was still funny and even though he has another DIARY, it is still a journal. You learned NEW characters and still are laughing your head off.

In the third book, the story was nothing new, but the problems. I noticed a ton of problems that started occuring for Greg. I feel so sorry for Greg.

CAN'T WAIT UNTIL I READ THE 4TH BOOK!

Extra Credit

Dear Mrs.Dubnik,
I am reading the book Extra Credit by:Andrew Clements! I read for fifty Mins. so I will tell you about what I have read so far and the book has been good so far! what i have read is... A boy name Sadeed, was out side of a room with a teacher and some other people were talking about a letter from an American girl andwrite back to the girl but for Sadeed to help his sister Abby! In the hills above linsdale in that chapter it was about Sadeed's sister Abby going to gym class rock climbing. and that every time Abby got to that surtain point she always mist the grip for her fingers and she fell every time. After gym class Abby was talking about the incident that happend in gym. Abby also dreded spending six hours doing school work, she was also not that great of a student even though she was smart. Abby loved school she loved being on the bus with her friends in the morning, gym class, lunch, and also recess but she hated doing school work she really didnt care for it at all. durring gym class the school counsler came and got her. when they got to the room the counsler told abby that she will most likely got held back and be in sixth grade again. the counsler gave abby a choice of her telling abby's parents or for abby to tell them. Abby dicided to tell her parents her self. when she told them they were really really disappointed! Then abby told them that she promised that she would do her best and work really hard so she doesn't get held back, and Abby's dad tells her that maybe even if you work hard enough and do your best that doesnt mean you won't get held back! that is a little summary about what i have read in Extra Credit.
sincerly,

Bride to Terabethia

Ohh..... I like this font!
Bridge to Terabethia
By Katherine Paterson

Hello People of Mrs. D's Blog!
I have come to tell you about a book I am reading called Bridge to Terabethia!! So far it is so awesome. I have not really got deep into the story because I am a S.....L......O......W reader. But luckily I am a fast typer. But anyway, of what I have read I loved, but there is only one character I really know very well. His name, Jesse. Jesse is sadly the ONLY boy in his family. He LoVeS to run! He hopes to be the fastest runner in the fifth grade. One time he was, but only once, he beat the fastest runner in the fifth grade but he has never been able to do it again, my main question is that I have in this story right now is will he ever be the fastest runner in the school.

Check out my future blogs so you can see what the problem and solution is in this story and if it is adventurous! Also if mayonaise is an instrument.....yeah.......not really!

The Capture

I'm reading "The Capture" by Kathryn Lasky. It is about animals!!! It's about Owls. They totally rock like "Granite". This one barn owl named Soren was just born three weeks before the beginning of the book. He has a brother named Kludd and a sister named Eglantine.He was listening to his father tell a story about the greatest owl in the world. When suddenly, he falls out of the nest and when he wakes up his parents have left to hunt. He is scared because of the night animals could eat a small chick!!!!! Luckily a another owl spots him and takes him to an orphanage. I hope he gets out and finds his parents.
