Amelia Bedelia

In school I read a book called Amelia Bedelia. This book is really funny because Amelia Bedelia does everything wrong. My favorite part of the book was when she cut holes in Mrs. Rogers dress! This book made me feel goofy and made me laugh. I think you'll want to read this book, because it is funny.

Frog and Toad at Best Friend Island

written by Elijah

typed by Mom and Elijah

Once upon a time there was a frog and a toad who were best friends. Their names were Frog and Toad. They lived on an island called Best Friends Island. You have to be best friends to live there.

One snowy, cold January morning, a dirty, scary looking ship sailed up to the island. On board there were 10 mean and rough pirates. They had come to take over Best Friend Island. If they did, Frog and Toad and all their friends would be slaves!

"Toad," said Frog, who was very afraid, "what are those pirates going to do?"

"I don't know," answered Toad nervously.

"I have an idea! Let's sneak up on the pirate's ship and steal their cannon. With the cannon we can frighten them away."

"How in the world can we steal a cannon? Aren't those things too heavy to carry?" worried Toad.

"Don't worry, "said Frog, "all pirate cannons have wheels on them."

Toad was excited about the plan. He said, "Let's do it!"

So, they sneaked up onto the ship after the pirates came onto the land to find the best friends. The pirates were looking for slaves. Frog and Toad found the cannon, they pushed it to the side of the ship and let it blast! The pirates were still near the ship and heard the loud boom. It frightened them so bad that they ran into the water and started swimming and swimming back to their island! Some of Frog and Toad's friends were afraid too and started to swim away.

"STOP!" cried Frog and Toad. "We're safe now. It was just us who fired the cannon!"

Then the best friends turned around and swam back. They said to Frog and Toad, "You saved our pretty island! 3 cheers for Frog and Toad! Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo!"

The End

Gammy and Grandpo's House.

On Saturday I went to my Grammy and Grandpa's house. While I was there I played with my friends, Mac and Max. Grammy and Grandpa let me spend the night, and I went to their church in the morning. I want to do it again because I had fun.

Kensington Park

My family was at Kensington Metro Park on Friday. My Dad came late. We had to wait 3 hours for him to get there. We like to go to Kensington even though it was raining a little, because we love being outdoors.

This is me and my brother's by the stream. We were looking at brown and black mud and throwing sticks and leaves in the stream to watch them go through the tunnel under the path.

This is Kaden, my brother, he is 4 years old and I love him. He is swinging before our hike.

This is an animal print that we do not know what it is. Personally, I think it is an opossum footprint.

This is another print that we do not know what kind of animal it is from. I think it is a coyote print.

This is Mommy and Lanie. Lanie is on Mommy's back in a carrier. The carrier can also turn into a stroller.

I'm swinging on the swing at the playground.

I am cool aren't I, ha ha.

I want to go to the park again. It was so fun that I want to camp there, but I think the police would kick us out. LOL

Tom & Jerry and The World of Goo

Short story written by Elijah Autry

Typed by Mom

Illustrated by Elijah Autry

Once upon a time, there were two boys named Tom and Jerry, playing "World of Goo" on the computer. On one of the levels they couldn't figure the game out because everything was made out of spikes.

Then, they heard...

ding-a-ling-a-ling.

One of their phones was ringing. Tom went to go answer his phone and looked to see who it was. To his surprise, it said "Robber" on the Caller ID. He didn't answer his phone, he just ran back to the computer to watch Jerry play "World of Goo". Jerry was still trying to figure out how to win the game.

Tom had an idea. He told Jerry to keep going down to the bottom where there were no spikes. When he got there, Tom was right - there were no spikes! Because of this, Jerry could build the goo tower and build it up past all of the spikes. If they built it high enough, it would reach the vacuum tube at the top and they would win the game!

They worked hard and did exactly what Tom suggested . . . and guess what? They won the game!
