Are you wearing green today? I don't know if I am yet because I'm still in my PJ's reading. You can get a lot accomplished when it comes to schoolwork if you just wake up and hop to it. Stay in those PJ's and get the job done!
Oh my it has been much too long since I have posted. Somehow I have a lot of books to read with this forty book class so over Spring Break, I'm putting a dent in the Newberry Books. I read the Whipping Boy this morning because it's short and I thought it would help me feel like I'm actually making some headway. It turned out to have one of the better endings. As far as Newberry Books go, some of them have heavy issues and sad endings like Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry. Bridge to Tarebithia is sad but ends as well as possible. The Whipping Boy had a great ending and since I don't want to spoil it, here's a few of my favorite quotes...
"Was it clothes that made a prince, Jemmy wondered, just as rags made a street boy."
" 'One more thing!' The king broke into a smile you could warm your hands over. 'If you boys decide to run away again, take me with you.' "-The Whipping Boy
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
