I read a book called How to draw a dinasor. There were five shapes.Theres a circle, square, triangle, retangle, oval.You use the shaps to make it. People did not know what color dinasors were. Then you can color it using any color you want. Then you can hang it up for people to see.

I think I need to use this book! I'm not the best at drawing. Do you think it would help? Did you use the book to draw a dinosaur?

This story reminds me of a time when there was a bird in a tree at my old school. The bird sat on two eggs for a long time and then one day the eggs were gone! Instead of eggs the mama bird had to baby birds. We watched her lay on them to help keep them warm and feed them when they were hungry. It was really cool!

Wow, you learned a lot about the moon. I love to look at the moon at night. Did you know sometimes you can still see the moon in the morning? I had to study the moon in one of my classes when I was in college; there are a lot of neat things to discover about it!

In Eek! There's a Mouse in the House, the cat knocked over the lamp. The elephant got all the animals out of the house except the mouse. The elephant was afraid of the mouse. That is very silly.

I liked the story Eek! There's a Mouse in the House! It was a funny story. I think it's silly too that the elephant was afraid of the mouse! Why do you think he was scared?

I read a book called Nick Is Sick. His mom and dad are out of town and he has a babysitter named Mrs.Prim. She does all the things like makes him toast and broth and reads to him just like his mom and dad do for him. I like this story because it reminds me of how my mom takes care of me when I am sick.

Great connection! When I was a little girl, my mom always took care of me when I was sick. It always made me feel a little bit better. I bet Nick was a little sad to be sick while his mom and dad were out of town, but I'm glad Mrs. Prim took such good care of him.

I read Kids Pick The Funniest Poems. I like the poem called The Monsters In My Closet.I like it because the mummy hates to vacuum so he starts to whine!They will trade jobs with Frankenstein to clean the boy's room. I also like that it rhymes. But Dracula wants to drink his blood. I think that is pretty rude! The is author Phil Bolsta.

The book A Clean Room reminds me of my sister and me. My mom is always telling us to clean our room so we can go outside or have friends over. I also have to keep my room clean so my dog Cookie won't eat something that can hurt her,

In the book Thats not fair it talks about things that are not fair for kids. The boy thinks it's not fair that he didn't get any new toys or that he has to take out the trash. He also thinks giving the dog a bath isn't fair because he like to be dirty. But he thinks one thing his mom and dad do that is fair is let him stay up later then his sister and brother.

My book is called Junie B is the Team Captain. The characters are Junie B, Grace, Strong Frankie, William and Charlotte. The settings are inside the classroom and outside on the playground. Junie B is the Team Captain of her class. She had to do this relay race and her came off and her team lost the race. They went to the pull up bars and no one in her class wanted to do it, but then William said he would. Strong Franky did 7 pulls ups but William did 11 and made everyone happy! Junie B gave the red Team Captain cape to William.

The book I read called Summer is about all the things kids do while out for the summer. They ride bikes eat ice cream and go see the fireworks on the 4th of July. I really like when the summer is here because my family gets to have more cook-outs and my birthday is in the summer. My sister and I cant wait for this summer because my mom will be having my second baby sister.

I like the book called Is your Buffalo Ready for Kindergarten? by Audrey Vernick. They said kindergarten was not a place for a buffalo. The buffalo did not fit in. He was not good at hiding but he could finger paint with his hooves! His masterpiece was messy. At recess he needed time to get used to the no grazing rule. He eats grass then throws it up in his mouth and eats it again. When the buffalo is mad he blows hot air out of his nostrils. The buffalo made friends with the kids in his class. The lesson is everyone is special in his or her own way. That is what the author wrote. I read to book to my sister.

I like the book called Cam Jansen and the Ghostly Mystery very much. The characters are Eric, Molly, Cam Jansen, and a boy and a girl. The girl was the ghost and the boy was the old man and the police officer.The ghost was scaring the people who wanted to buy tickets for a concert. Cam Jansen was one of those people standing in line. She decided to investigate the problem. Cam Jansen discovered that the ghost was really a girl and the old man was a boy. Eric and Molly helped Cam Jansen solve the mystery. What I like most about this book is the details that the author wrote about, and the way that Cam Jansen solves the mystery with her friends.

The book Shaun's soy sauce is about a boy who likes soy sauce on all his food. He puts it on ice cream and pancakes. It reminds me of my mom because now that she is having another baby she likes BBQ sauce on a lot of things. If she doesnt have any she will make some by using ketup , vingar, mustard salt and pepper. She also puts a lot of crushed red pepper because she likes it hot.

In the book Going out to eat. The mommy bear teaches the sister and brother bear how to act when they go out to eat. Sister and brother bear were talking loud and chewing with their mouths open. the book is also about having respect for others. My mom always tell me to treat others the way I would want to be treated.

My book is titled Fancy Nancy Stellar Stargazer by Jane O'Connor. The book is about things in the sky like stars, the moon, and the sun. Nancy camps outside with JoJo and their dad. They learn about the Big Dipper and constellations. One is Orion. He is a hunter. They also pretend that they are astronauts on the moon. The moon is like a trampoline. It was an interesting book. I learned alot. The pictures were great!
