Befriending

Today, I read another chapter of The Tiger Rising. In it, I found out that the girl in the pink lacy dress's name was Sistine and she seemed to hate Rob, but I think that they will become friends.I also think that Sistine will be the one who says "Wanna be friends?"I am sure I am right.

Seven Seas or Seven C's?

When Sindbad sailed the seven seas, his cheeks were red and ruddy. But when  Sally came home with seven C's, ma kept her home to study. The moral of this story is that people cheer for exploration but you can't go anywhere without an education.

Awareness Month

Did you know that April is National Awareness Month?Have you ever had a time that you wished that you had listened better?Well I have and it goes like this: One time I was reading a book at my house and my mother told me something. I didn't hear her, but when she said "OK?" I nodded. The next day, a friend asked if I wanted to have a sleepover on the night of the Talent Show. I knew mom would say yes. But when I got home, I was told that a friends of my mom was going to drop off her daughter for a sleepover after the Talent Show. So that was what my mom said. If only I'd listened!

How The Author Engaged Me

Today, I read chapters one and two of The Tiger Rising. I found out that the main character of the story is a boy named Rob. Two other characters are Billy and Wharton Threelonger. They are bullies that always torment Rob and they are on the same bus.

One day, Rob sees a tiger pacing around in a cage. Then, the same day, a new girl with long blonde hair and a lacy pink dress comes on the bus. Ooh! I wonder what will happen next! Maybe the girl owns the tiger!

The Tiger Rising Reading

I have a prediction for the book The Tiger Rising by:Kate Di Camillo. I predict that the book is  fantasy  because on the cover ,there is a girl riding a tiger and there is no such thing. Plus, the tiger was way too big . I also predict that it will be full of adventure since Kate Di Camillo has written other books like "Desperado"(it's a movie now too!) and they are full of dangers, surprises and mystery, so I'm sure this book is full of them too. That also means I'll like it too!
