Maybe a Fox Book Review

Maybe a furry fox...
Maybe a Fox is an exciting (but sort of depressing) book! 

The ancient memory of falling whiteness made her shiver. But then she saw something else, something that wasn't ancient at all. A snow family. There was a mother and a father and two daughters. And right in the middle...

                                                                                                                                       A tiny snow fox.

When Jules Sherman's sister falls into the Slip river and drowns, Jules and her dad live in a new, miserable time called After Sylvie. No more Maybe game, no more building snow families, no more rock hunting together. Jules stops going to school and her dad stops going to work. But then, a miracle happens.

Jules finds a tiny Kennen snow fox named Senna.

Senna guides Jules through the depression and brings her to the Grotto. She finds Sylvie's signature candle: her coconut-smelling candle. And her mother's old flamingo mug.

What happens? Read the book and find out!

Have an appaging day!

Beowulf Book Review

Image result for beowulf pictures
Beowulf the Brave!
Beowulf is a terrific book; and I advise you to read it. It is about a young warrior who comes to fight for another kingdom (it's Middle-earth) against a monster, Grendel. Once he slays Grendel, his mother comes in rage. But Beowulf the Brave slays her as well.

Here's the sad part: A dragon awakens when one man takes a golden cup. Beowulf sucessfully defeats the beast, but the venomous fangs had gripped him. He slowly dies of his wounds, and the one man of the 14 warriors that Beowulf brought but had run away, took place of Beowulf by order.

I suppose you read this! It's amazing!

Have a read-mazing day!

Welcome To Camp Read-A-Lot!

Image result for tent and books
Book tent. Awesome.
The camp today at school was so much FUN!!!

Today is National Reading Day. To celebrate that, second grade did something called Camp Read-A-Lot! All the stations were somehow related to reading, but I did have a couple requests for add-ons.

1. Camp Claymound
2. Camp Librarian

The whole day was pretty much stations, except related to reading. Not like any normal day, that's a fact!

We got to bring our sleeping bags (or blankets), slippers, a flashlight, and stuffies (stuffed animals)! It was SUPER exciting!

Why don't you try and encourage YOUR teacher to do something like this on National Reading Day? Don't be afraid to try to persuade your teacher to experience something fun... And educational!

Hope you enjoyed this post... And reading! Laterz!

Yesterday, January 31st: Super Blue Blood Moon!

Super... Blue Blood Moon!
The Super Blue Blood Moon is a rare even that hasn't been seen in over 150 years!

It occurs when the super moon (a large moon), a blue moon (the second full moon of the month), and a full lunar eclipse come together. There is another thing called a blood moon, which is a reddish color.

This moon is very rare. Sometime in January of next year, there will be a super blood moon. Not quite a Super Blue Blood moon, because the blue moon has not joined in.

The Super Blue Blood Moon is extremely exciting, and cool to watch, too! If you saw it last night, good for you! Hope you live for 150 more years so you can see it again!

I hope you enjoyed this post. Later!

A Future Class Field Trip To Seaworld!


Image result for seaworld
It's Seaworld, the amazing aquarium!
Dolphins and orcas play, people touch marine animals, and you have fun! That's what you call Seaworld!

One reason I'd like to go to Seaworld is because you can do so many different things with the marine animals there! When I visited Seaworld (not on a field trip), I didn't just get to look at the animals. I got to feel their rubbery but tough skin, and even some rough skin! When you go to places like Seaworld, you can really feel the marine animal inside you!

Another reason I'd love to go to Seaworld is becuase there's a large variety of animals there, some endangered, and it's like a once-in-a-lifetime experience to see those animals. There are killer whales, (also known as orcas) dolphins, belugas, and so much more!

Seaworld isn't just an aquarium. You don't just have fun, either. You can learn, too! So that's why I'd enjoy going to Seaworld for a field trip someday!

How I'll Be Awesome In 2018

Image result for 2018
The new year--2018!
2018 is coming soon, and I'm going to be awesome!

One way I'm going to be awesome is I'm going to make better grades and work harder in school. This matters because it's important to have good grades, or you'll start failing tests and other things. If I close my eyes, I can imagine myself getting 100s on all my papers!

Another way I'm going to be awesome is I'm going to try new things! You'll never know if you like something or not before you try it, because the only way to find out is to try! I might try new foods, even though they may look disgusting, and I could try a new sport, although it looks and sounds frightening and dangerous. I'll never forget the first time I played soccer at school!

Next year, I'll be awesome, and you can be, too!

Pax: Book Review

This is the beautiful, one and only... PAX!!!


Hello! Today I am going to do a book review on Pax. Pax is about a boy whose father is joining the military, so he has to release his pet fox, Pax, back into the wild. But then, he feels that it was wrong and goes looking for Pax.

The boy, Peter, sprains his ankle, bumps into private property, and hides in a town along the way.

Pax finds new foxes named Bristle and Runt, and also finds an old fox named Gray. They also bump into a military base, and-what do you know! The boy's father is there. At the military base, Pax and
the others run into lots of troubles.

But will Pax find his boy?

Pax is a wonderful book, and I advise you to read it! Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this post. Bye-bye!

Umbrella Summer: Book Review

Image result for umbrella summer
Annie, don't have an umbrella summer!

Hello! Today, I will be doing a book review on Umbrella Summer. It's about a girl who is cautious about lots of things and worries a lot ever since her brother died of heart problems. Her best friend, Rebecca Young, gets angry at Annie for not caring about her dead hamster, Fuzzby. Annie has a meltdown at the Junior Sunbird Car Wash and hoses down everyone.

Mrs. Finch, Annie's new neighbor, says that it's time to close down Annie's umbrella of sadness and step into the sunlight again. But can she? Can she knock down her troubles to get into the sunshine that she needs to find again?

Umbrella Summer is a lively book and I encourage you to read it! Now, I hope you enjoyed the post. Bye bye!

Painting With a Twist

This is me with my "Fireworks Over the Lake" painting!

Hello readers! Today I want to tell you about my Painting With a Twist adventures! I painted a piece of fireworks over a lake. Painting With a Twist is basically a fun place where you can paint different paintings. It seems to me that the theme of what you paint is based on the month you're in and the month you're closest to.

Just in case you're getting interested, here's a few things you'll be able to paint.

1. Day's Dream.......................July 1
2. Follow Your Heart............................June 28
3. Regal Eagle......................June 29
4. Customize Your Combat........................July 2
5. Late Thunderstorm......................June 29
6. Star Pops.............................June 30
7. Love Grows Daisies..........................July 5
8. THE SUPER YOU!................................June 30
9. Watermelon Monogram..............................July 1
10. Rustic Pride..............................July 3

You starting to get the idea? Try it out! If you live in Murphy, go to the one by the Smith Public Library. It's the closest one, and I think it's the most fun!

So, that's it for today. I hope you enjoyed it! Bye bye!

July 4: Exciting Day!

This looks like a blast!
Hello readers! Today I want to talk to you about July 4! The exciting day AND the closest holiday! It's this Saturday and me and my mom are going up on our roof to enjoy the July fireworks! Maybe we could have a little feast with my golden silverware that's in a case up in our attic.

How are you going to celebrate July 4? Why do you think that July 4 is celebrated with fireworks? There are lots of questions and so many answers. Answer some questions in the comments! Not just me, anyone can! But let's get to the point. July is a beautiful holiday and nobody can doubt that.

Today, I'm going to Painting With a Twist to paint a painting called "Fireworks Over the Lake". Have you been there before? What was it like?

So, that's it for today. I hope you enjoyed it! Bye bye!

A Christmas Carol: The Purpose of the 3 Christmas Ghosts
