In story the main character is Alli and her aunt wants to take her to a lake in Maine where they would have a good time, but unfortunatly for Alli her mom doesnt want her to go because she thinks it will be too danderouse and she might not be safe.
ReplyDeleteThis remind me of times in my life because there are alot of times that I would like to do alot of things with my friends but i cant because my parents wont let me... Most of the time they will but there are other really fun things that i would like to do but they wont let me.
The event that relates to my life in this story is when Macey helps out those who cant offord homes by helping paint the community church. I help those less fortunate over at charelton, which makes me feel good inside.
ReplyDeleteSHELBY-Your book sounds really good and interesting. I wonder how the tapes did get on the steps if she was dead? Keep reading and keep me updated.
In my book swindel by Gordan Korman, I can relate to the two boys in my book Griffen and Ben. I can relate to these boys because they both like to stand up for what is write and not back down from a chalenge. They also like to go on adventures and they are not afraid to get in a little trouble do it. They also like baseball cards as i also do. So far this book is very good and i belive Gordan Korman is a great author and has a awsome mind.
ReplyDeleteLogan- I agree with shelby your book does sound realy good i wonder what else Macey will do to help the less fortunate
ReplyDeleteThe things that i charish the most in my life are family, friends, and the great outdoors. In my dook the main chariter Griffen charishes his best friend Ben. Griffens parents are in a financial slump and have to move, and griffen will literaly do anything so his family does not have to move even breaking and entering and stealing. He also charishes standing up for what is right, and family. he also charishes taking back what was riffely his. I can compare him to me because he will do anything for what he belives in and what he has.
ReplyDelete1.a passage in my book so far that reminded me of somthing i have felt or done before is when Jessica Davis hit Hannah because she was jelouse that hannah got put on the "whos hot" collum of the "WHOS HOT/ WHOS NOT" list and Jessica got put on the "whos not" collum. this reminded me of a fight there was at my old school in virginia when these two girls got mad at each other because one was jelouse of the other.
ReplyDelete1. The things that I cherish are family, friends and memories. It is similar to Kira because she also cherishes her memories, friends, the family that she has, schoolwork and her neighbors/community.
ReplyDelete2.SHELBY- In a book I read before the main character made a list like that only she called it the IN and OUT status.
1. In my book I can relate to when Kira thinks her mom is acting strange and distant with her,because sometimes I wonder what is going on with my parents when they're trying to plan something secretly.
ReplyDelete2. LEXI- That's crazy that that much action was packed in 20 pages, your book does sound intresting.
