 * April 18th, 2011.** I have picked up the book I was reading at the beginning of the quarter a couple of times. I couldn't tell you how many pages I've read exactly. But nothing has happened really so far. Each day just leads up closer and closer to the camping trip that Mark doesn't want to go to. In the end I think he will like the trip. He'll become closer with classmates and make more friends.


 * April 1st, 2011.** I haven't read anything for a couple of weeks. I've been to busy. Sorry:(


 * March 23rd, 2011.** For the fourth quarter I am starting out reading the book, A Week in The Woods by Andrew Clements. I found this book in my brothers room, I decided to read it because it doesn't seem to difficult to understand and just something easy to get through. But so far it is about a young boy named Mark that has to move to New Hampshire and attend a hick school. He really doesn't enjoy this. Then his teacher that hates him decides they are going on this field trip to stay in the woods for a week. Mark hates this idea also...

Of Mice and Men Review.
 * February 10th, 2011.** We just finished the novel __Of MIce and Men__ in class and obviously the characters haven't changed and the plot has a bit just because we furthered our knowledge on this book. The most exciting part in this book so far is when Lenny accidentely kills his pup. Then he kills Curley's wife. This part is not only exciting but some sort of sad just because Lenny did not really know he was gonna hurt anybody. I do not like the part of Lenny's death because its not really his fault. Maybe an institution would of been a better choice for him.


 * January 27, 2011**. __Of Mice and Men__ is the novel we are reading in English 2b. I read this novel last year and am this year again so it is very easy to comprehend and understand obviously. The main characters in this book to me are two unique guys. George and Lenny, they are kind of a team together. George is definitely the leader because Lenny is mentally retarded and George looks out for him and takes care of him so he doesn't get sent to an institution. Lenny's really slow but really strong and has a good heart. George has a bit of a temper but he deals with a lot but that comes with taking care of Lenny. He's a good man. George and Lenny's problem is Lenny keeps getting into trouble where ever they are and they have to run or they get in trouble. So right now they are settling down on a farm and making decent money. One guy picks on Lenny alot because Lenny is just a big guy and not many people know he's mentally retarded. From reading this book last year and this year I think its a over all good book. I like how it teaches you a lesson on how to handle people that have the same issue as Lenny. I like this book and I think a lot of people do. Highly recommended by me when people ask.
