The Giver

This book is about a young boy named Jonas. His world is perfect. No hunger, no pain, and no sorrow. No one has to make any choices and everyone has a role in the community. But when the ceremony for the twelves (when you are assigned a role in the community) comes closer, Jonas is worried that even though the elders have watched him carefully for the last little while, he won't be given the right role. This book is for any one that likes tear jerking fiction books. I rate this book a ten out of ten.

The School for the Insanely Gifted

2012-01-17T19:00:00.001-08:00

This book is about a girl named Daphna Whispers. She is an AMAZING pianist. She wrote her first sonata when she was 2 1/2. When she was eight she finished an opera. And at age 11 3/4 she is writing a piano rhapsody. No wonder she goes to the Blatt School for the Insanely Gifted. She is almost always thinking about her mother's disappearance when she isn't composing music. Now it's up to her to solve the mystery before the Insanity Cup.

Solving Zoe

This book is about a girl who goes to a fancy private school. She doesn't have an amazing talent like her brother and sister. Later, a new boy starts following her around at school. I liked this book because it is about a girl my age. SHe learns to accept who everyone really is. I also learned a few ciphers from this book. I would give it nine out of ten stars.

My mom's friend, Julia, did great at Ragnar.

Try to carve a pumpkin like this one with Jack Skellington on it!
Quinn wanted to meet a princess, but instead she got stuck with Alice.
We got fast-passes for World of Color but Georgia was tired so we couldn't

see it.
We had fun at a Bugs Land but Georgia was scared of the bugs.

Quinn also got stuck with having her picture taken with Mickey.

the Russel's cabin

Our car got stuck in the snow for about 15 minutes. I took some pictures to pass the time.
Georgia fell and got a black eye and a big scab. She'll pose for any picture but she won't keep her eyes open.
My dad's brain fell out of the car on the way to the cabin.

Georgia can't wait until she can go swimming. She wouldn't take off the swim cap.

Or maybe she really can wait.
