Alexis, 3rd Grade - "My Independence Day Float"


If I were to have my own float in the Chatham Fourth of July Parade...well it would be totally awesome. I have already designed an Independence Day float in my mind. There  would be a tall green Statue of Liberty with two bright stars next to her. Behind the statue there would be a big poster board representing the U.S. A with the word FREEDOM on it. On the bottom it would have red, white and blue stripes. Miley Cyrus would be on the float singing God Bless America while red spot lights illuminate her body. Like I said...it would be awesome!

Jacqueleen Reviews "Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie"




One of my favorite books of all time is Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie. This book is about Alex, the main character, and his journey through the rough time of his brother fighting leukemia, which is a type of cancer. You probably assume that this book is serious, but it’s not. There are lots of sections where this book is very funny, and you can’t help but to laugh out loud! In the end Alex ends up raising money to help his brother, and learns that even the toughest of tough times can always turn around in a blink of an eye. I enjoyed this book very much because it teaches you a very valuable lesson, it teaches you a whole lot about one of the most serious cancers, and it’s extremely humorous!
