This book is about a boy named Noah who is trying to catch whoever is putting gallons of raw sewage into the waters of Florida Keys. In addition to this very hard task Noah’s dad is behind bars. His dad refuses to go to court and get his way out of jail.

 

Noah is a caring, adventurous and hardworking.  He likes to solve mysteries and he cares for his family. He worries about his mom a lot and so does his sister. Noah’s  little sister name is Abby. Noah likes to think of her as an older sibling mostly because Abby has a big mouth and she is not afraid to use it.  Abby and Noah are a nice team.

 

Out of one to ten I rate this book a eight. It is not a book that is a page turner but there is still a lot of things going on. I recommend this book to people who like realistic fiction. Go read this book!

Settling on the banks of plum creek

On the Banks Of Plum Creak By Laura Ingals Wilder

MISSISSIPPI Laura, Merry, Pa and Ma were a family of four. They moved to the banks of plum creek a month ago. The family moved because so many Indians were starting a war. They came to Mississippi in a wagon with two horses. In the wagon there was a bed, food, and valuable things.

Laura and Merry would sit in the bed and play hand games and watch what what was happening outside. Pa and Ma would go to the front of the wagon and drive the horses. The ride took one to two months.

When they arrived they didn’t make a new house, instead they traded. The family found a house and knocked on the door. A man came out of the house and said, “What are you doing here?” Pa replied, “Are you willing to trade houses?” The man said, “Yes, where is your house?” Ma said, “On the prairie.” The man said, “Okay”.

The next day Pa helped the man pack up his wagon and hitched up the horses. Then the family started to settle in. Pa and  Ma got all their belongings and brought them in the house. Merry and Laura picked there room, then got their belongings and settled in.

Merry and Laura would go outside and pick sun warmed plums from the plum trees. Day after day Merry and Laura would pick plums,  play outside and do chores in the Prairie.
