In the Hand of the Goddess

 

This book is about a girl named Alanna. She lives in a kingdom where she is secretly becoming a knight. She is a girl, but she is disguised as a boy. She is on her fourth year of becoming a knight and when she turns 18 she will tell everyone that she is a girl and she will leave the kingdom to go help others in the country. In this book, she is 14 about to turn 15. She has a lot of friends that keep her company when she is practicing and studying for school. She only told three people that she is a girl and they were surprised when they heard it. She told George, Prince Jonathan and George’s mother who is helping her to become a girl again. Her fear is a sorcerer named Duke Roger. He has powers which can reach out to you and see what you’re thinking. Near the end of the book when she is about 16 she has to go through many tests so that she can almost become a knight. She also gets in a fight with her enemy Duke Roger. Does she win or not……. Read the book to find out more about the middle and ending.

I enjoy this book because it is a very interesting book. It talks about the old days when you had very harsh training and did not have guns or anything. This makes the story more interesting because when they have fights in the fighting room, it can go one way or the other depending on who is the strongest. This book is also interesting because it talks about a sickness and how they found a way to cure it. This book is very entertaining if you like fights and peace at the same time!

I think I would rate this book 8/10 because I like its text. I like it because when I read it I can make mental pictures in my mind of what is going on in the story. If you read the book maybe you will think the same. I think this book is a page turners. There are several books and they are long and entertaining!

In this story I will describe a Poptart! The Poptart smells a lot like chocolate. The Poptart is also very delicate at the touch of it. It will break in your hand when you pick it up. The Poptart sounds like nothing, but when you are opening the package you hear the crumpling sound of the packaging.  At first sight you see a very chocolaty square. When you get to see the inside after your first bite, you get to see the chocolate filling. The best part is the taste. The taste is the best thing you will ever have!

Jack



Jack is tied to the theme because he is kinder then necessary. At the beginning of the book Jack said that friendship was important and helped Auggie make friends and become one of his friends. Jack is kind to Auggie and helps him get through the school year and not get bullied too much.

Jacks character traits Is that he is good friends with Auggie and protects him from bullied. Jack was one of the kids that welcomed Auggie to the school at the beginning of the year. Jack is very kind and helps out a lot in homework and other things so Auggie can do okay. Jack likes summer at the end of the book!

Jack is influenced by Auggie because Auggie is kind and respectful and tries to make jack understand that he should try to be the same. Jack becomes good friends with Auggie after they got to get use to each other. They help each other through the school year and try not to get hurt or bullied. They are good friends!

 

 


I picked this picture for Jack because he was very nice to Auggie at the beginning of the year and then they got to know each other then and helped each other. Jack and Auggie are very nice people! :D

The Robotic Boy

When I was born on December 25, 2051 I was marked as unusual by my parents. I was born at 12:00 pm. right on the dot. I was marked as unusual by my parents because I had one eye that was blue and one eye that was black. Also, I somehow was a robot. My mom was perfectly human, but when I got older I found out that my father was a robot like me. I also soon found out that my father would be teaching me to conquer his enemies when I got older because he was getting old and could not do it himself.

            When I turned seven years old my father started to teach me how to use my robotic powers and how to control them, so I did not overload myself and self-destruct. My father told me,

” Son when you get older you will have to fight the evil Baker and make the world have peace like it did when I was a young boy.”

The Baker was an evil ruler that killed many of my people that went to try to face him to bring the world peace. My father also told me,

“When you fight the Baker you will have to use all the years of training I will give you so you can be a person that will defeat the Baker and bring peace.”

My father trained my to shoot lightning from my hand and make it stun the person so I got a second or two, for my next attack. Also, I learned to strike the opponent with my energy sword and hurt them so that I got to advantage. If I failed my mission, Robot Town would be put under harsher laws and waits for the next generation to rise and defeat him.

When I turned 15, it was time to start the journey across space to the Land of Dome where I would find and fight the Baker. I went downtown with my truck and went to the space dealer. I bought a ship that would be able to make the long journey to the Land of Doom and have enough fuel to get back after the fight. The ship was made of gleaming metal that almost hurt your eyes to look at it.

“Would you like us to deliver that to you sir,” said the owner of the shop who was a little fat and had grey hair and looked like he had been there for a long time.

“No thanks I’ll take it in my truck” I replied.

“Okay, good luck on your journey and fighting the Baker,” said the owner.

“Thanks,” I answered

I loaded the ship onto my truck and rapped the straps around it so that it would not fall off. After about 20 minutes of driving I finally got home. I unloaded the ship and set it outside my garage. I walked into my house and yelled,

“Mom, Dad I got the ship, do you want to come take a look at it?”

They both came running from the living room and came to look at it. My dad said that I had picked a good ship. My mother and father both helped me into the ship after I got into my robotic outfit with my sword. I strapped in and I counted down.

“3”

“2”      

“1”

“LIFT OFF”

My ship took off like lightening and was out of the atmosphere in 30 seconds.

            Once I was in space, I was on my way to the Land of Doom. I was in the ship for about 3 hours before I finally found the Land of Doom. I got all my robotic equipment ready and got ready to jump from my ship to the Land of Doom.

“Let’s do this,” I said to myself and I leaped from my ship.

I landed on one of the Bakers towers and blasted into it with my missile hand. The Baker heard the noise and turned around in surprise-then an evil smile.

“Come to try to defeat me to save the Robot Town, HA… you will never accomplish that,”

“I will defeat you even if it takes me all of my powers and strength to do so,” I replied.

“So be it” said the Baker and drew his light sword.

I drew my energy sword and blocked the first hit just in time.

            Strike after strike he struck me and I dodged or blocked all of them. I shot my missile at him, BOOM! Went the missile. He backed off trying to clear the smoke from everywhere. With that I jumped through the smoke and struck at him. He hit the ground with a loud crash. He got up looking very mad at me and then shot a dart like thing out of his hand which almost hit me. I shot laser eyes at his arm.

“AHHHH,” he screamed with horror.

I had gotten the advantage and I took it. I jumped at him and brought my sword down. He rolled over and dodged the sword. He punched me and I rolled into a corner. The Baker came and looked at me and said,

“Good fight kid, but you’re going to end now and your town will get more harsh laws.”

He brings his sword up and is ready for a strike. I think fast and draw my sword and stab him in the stomach and he falls to the ground. He looks up at me in surprise and horror. He closes his eyes and he is dead.

One of his soldiers walks out and says,

“You have defeated the king of the Land of Doom you have made the lands of your people and other people safe for once,” said the soldier

“I conquered my father’s dreams and won.” I said.

“Yes you have,” replied the soldier.

“My soldiers now fall under your command because you have killed our leader,” said the soldier.

“Then let’s get back to Robot Town and you guys will be put as guards and will be trained by the military to become safe and good defenders of our town,” I said.

“My army will follow you in your space ship and you lead us there” answered to soldier.

“Let’s go,” I replied.

We had back to the town with five space ships because of all the soldiers.

            We take the long journey back down to the earth to find our town. We go to a town that looked like ours and lands there. We explore the town and find out that there is no one there so this could not be our town. We search many other towns all over the area of our town where it was on the map. One of the soldiers looks at the paper and then flips it around.

“You had it upside-down,” said the soldier.

“Oh, Thanks,” I replied.

We start to finally go off in the right direction of Robot Town.

            After 20 minutes of flying we finally find Robot Town. Everyone looks up in amazement that there are so many ships. My mother and father thought that I must have been killed because these where the Bakers ships, but when they saw me walk out with some of the soldiers they yelled with excitement.

“You did it,” cried my father.

The soldiers started to walk around telling people things. Then all at once everyone in the town yelled.

“NO MORE BAKER”

The town was now safe from any outsider and enemies that wanted to attack. We were safe forever. All the soldiers went to military school to learn how to be a guard of our town and be loyal to others. The town was back to normal with lots of safety for the people living there.

One day I was going to go order food from a nearby restaurant when my parents called me and told me to go to the restaurant called Mountain Restaurant. I got out my map and looked to see where it was. IT WAS 30 MILES AWAY!!!! I started my Ultimate Adventure to the top of the mountain.  28 hours later I reached the top of the mountain. I got the food my parents wanted then took the “water slide” back down to the road. I got to the road through the water slide in about 10 minutes. What a day.

I enjoy this book because it is a graphic novel and it is fun to read. I like to read it because the story continues through the books as you go. You can read these books very fast but I like to read them many time for fun. They books have lots of war in them with fighting with elves to get to where they want to. It also has peace in it is about Emily protecting her family and letting them get use to the Amulet and there missions. This book is a very fun and exciting book to read.

 

I think this book is a good book for you to read if you like to read comics and not just look at the pictures. If you are willing to do that and know what the story is about then you would love these books. These books are for page turners that don’t mind reading it over again. I rate this book 8 out of 10 because of its good pictures and exciting story out line. Read it, it’s Great!!

One day when I was walking down the road, I saw a open sewer. People were holding their noses. I saw green smoke coming out of it. Workers were going down in it in there swim suits. I thought it would be weird if they swam in it so I went to take a look.  I saw four people and two horses taking baths. THEY WERE SWIMMING IN A PIPE OMG. I walked up the street where people where carefully coming out of it. They were all green. This is the craziest place that I have ever seen. I walked to a restaurant and ate.

When I Was Sick

When I woke up on a Saturday morning, I felt really bad. I told my parents and they took my temperature and it was 37 Celsius. They told me to go lie on the couch and go to sleep. I tried to get to sleep, but it was hard because my head hurt so badly. After about 20 minutes I got to sleep. I woke up about an hour later and felt even worse than I had before taking the nap.

The sickness was still with me even after three days of medication. I was very mad about being sick because I couldn’t see my friends. Also, I had to do extra work when I got back to school. Sometimes when I felt like I could go to school something would stop me. It could be my temperature or it could just be that my parents told me to go to sleep so that I could be 100% before going back to school.

When I was sick I felt like I could not move. I felt like my whole body was stuck onto wherever I was on, like myself was part of the couch. Sometimes, when I would stand up to go to the kitchen table or something it would feel like I might fall down. Also, when I was sick I could barely eat any of the food I was given by my parents. I felt so bad and didn’t want to eat. I would force myself to eat because I wanted to feel better. I would eat things like peanut butter and crackers. I would drink water, but when I did it really hurt my throat. When I started to feel a little better, I started eating more things like bread.

When the fourth day started with me being sick I felt much better. I still felt like I was stuck to the couch, but I could force myself to stand up and walk a little. I had to sleep most of the day to get better. My dad would take my temperature about every 40 minutes to see if I was getting better. When I started to feel better I could read books and do stuff to become less bored. The days felt like they were going by so slowly because I was getting better and there was nothing to do. It was not fun at all.

On my fifth day of being out of school, I felt so good that I could jump. I wanted to go to school so badly, but I still had fever.  My temperature was so close to being 100% that I did not want to do anything to make it go back up. I took one more dose of medication and I thought it would do it. I waited the whole day-- building Legos and sleeping for my parents to come home. When my parents finally got home they took my temperature and I was 100% and no fever. I when to sleep that night relieved because I felt great. The next morning I went to school and saw my friends again. Being sick is not fun!

The Best Vacation Ever

My best vacation ever was when I went to Bali. I got to do lots of fun things like snorkel, sit on the beach, and went to eat the great food. I was there for about two weeks so I got to do lots of things. When we were there we met some new friends. Are new friends did lots of things with us. We went to many restaurants on the beach and we even go to see the sun set over the water.

First we went snorkeling and it was very fun. We got to see so many types of fish. We got to see fish go into the coral and out of it. They also swim around you and sometimes touch your feet. They sometimes circle around you and it can be scary because you don’t want to hit them and hurt them. I had lots of fun swimming with the fish and seeing all there beautiful colors.

Second when we were not going snorkeling we would relax on the beach. When we relaxed on the beach I would sometimes build dames to block the water. On the trip I met someone named James. He was about the same age as me and we hung out together in the pool and on the beach. He had blond hair and we played on the beach a lot. Once we brought the snorkels into the pool and played tag in the pool.

Finally on our last few days we did everything we could. We went to our favorite restaurant and we relaxed on the beach. I swam in the water a little before we had to go. I had a great time in Bali. I would visit it again if I could. Bali was a very nice and clean place to be. Bali was very beautiful to see and it was cool to meet new friends and the different people in Bali.
