My Map

Map art is a art made out of maps. In art we are doing a map project. I am cutting out the parts of the city that  mean the most to me and the least to me. Then I mount them on black paper that is mounted on black paper. After this I am going to out line it with white gel pen. Then I am going to mount them on top of each other to create a hill shape. I think that I will finish in the next 3 classes. Screenshot 2016-05-10 at 9.58.01 AM

She goes to her best friends birthday party at a roller skating rink and at the party she slips in skates then boom crash bang she falls.

She makes new friends and she gets a new life, but she still misses her old life. Kacey Simon decided to join a band and makes more friends she is lead singer and goes to practice after school.She gets a little bummed up with her new friends to, somethings go back to normal and some things do not.”I-I can’t be in the band”, that is when Kacey does something to break her friendship with one of her friends, but I am not going to say anything else.

I really enjoyed this book because there are very good descriptions and they explain the story really well and the story was really great. I think someone who likes books that can be realistic but not that much, because that is what the book is about a every day life for some people but not for all people. I would give this book 5 stars out of 5.

Diary Of Wimpy Kid: RODRICK RULES

Greg has an older brother and his brother has party’s he also has a van and gets in trouble a lot. Greg’s dad gets mad at Rodrick a lot and he has a friend that just hangs around all day. This book people can read very fast so if you are trying to get things done than you should read this book.

“When dad saw all those teenagers in the driveway, he TOTALLY freaked out,” that is one of my favorite parts of the book (I will not say why I do not want to be a Spoiler). This is the second book but you can read them in any order. It is not as bad as the other books (to me I do not like the other books).

I would give this book 4 *** Stars because it could have delivered the same diary entries in a longer more descriptive way. This book is good for people that like to zoom through book’s.

Or Abbey Road?” Olive read.” Those C.D’s are the Beatles, See she loves them.

I enjoyed this book a lot I loved, because the way the story is told and how the characters have there own personality. I recommend this book to people that like reading about other people getting trouble. But I also think that people who like all books would and will like it. I would want to rate this book 90 out of 100 stars I think that there could be more action. But I have to rate 5 or less so a 4 out of 5 stars.

The School For The Good And Evil, by Soman Chainani

16248113This book is about two girls who go to fairytail school. Sophie a girl with blond hair and silky skin goes to the school for evil. Agatha a girl that prefers to stay alone has a lot of dark thoughts and she has dark black hair that is short down to her shoulders she goes to the school for good. The 2 girls think that the school master a man that chooses the kids from different places made the wrong choice. First Sophie thinks that she should go to the school for good and Agatha wants to go home. Second the girls are friends, and if you are friends with somebody in the other school they send you home.

My favorite part is when Agatha turns into a cockroach and helps Sophie cheat in school. I like that part because it’s fun to think of cheating in school.

“Sophie had waited all her life to be kidnapped “ that is half a sentence from page 1 the first half a sentence, I like the half a sentence because this is the sentence that pulled me into the book.

This book has 488 pages so you might want to see how much time you have to read the book. This book is for people who like fantasy. I would give this book 4***** stares because it was a great book and and the way it is told and the idea of the story is great.

SCAT ,by Carl Hiaasen

       Scat is a really good book that is about a teacher that goes into a swamp when a fire is burning to get a student’s medication. The teacher does not come out of the fire, Marta and Nick are wondering why she does not come out. But there is something about the timing, the day before the teacher disappeared a boy in her class eats half of her pencil and people are saying that the boy set the fire. Will Marta and Nick see the puzzle and put it together?

       This is a good book that I did not want to put down. This is a good book that people would love if they loved mystery and leaving you with a never ending idea.

      UnknownI would give this book 1,000 stars if I could, I would give it 5 ***** stars.

Shots At Sea, by Tom Lalicki

Unknown

This book is about a murderer that is on a ship and tried to murder 2 people but Max a teenage boy is not going to give up on trying to get the man. This mystery is a good one and at most parts they start talking about boring stuff bet then it gets really good.

          At some parts you might feel like putting the book down but keep going. Like don’t judge a book by it’s cover, but it goes a little into the book. It’s a good book other than that.

       People would like this book if they liked mysteries. If you want to read this book don’t do it in bed.

I would give this book 4****.

Time Squared, Julia Devillers and Jennifer Roy

              Time Squared is about two twins named Emma and Payton. A lot of other people get them mixed up and the only person that can tell the difference is their friend Tess. Sometimes they pretend to be each other and nobody knows. The two girls go to N.Y.C. for different reasons, they are stuck with a mean chaperone and they trade places.

              There are a lot of obstacles in the way like two girls named Sydney and Jazmine that make fun of how they look alike.

                This would be a good story for people who like when the book gets all mixed up and after gets back in order.

            I would give this book 4 **** stars because it could be a little less mixed up and share the same information.

A good book and this book shares a good sense of humor.
