Would this be good?

 I'm thinking of some ideas for books. Maybe I could do a story about a weird mythical creature disguised as a pig. It could be half pegasus, half phoenix. Or it could be a mix of two souls from egyptian goddesses. What do you think? Should the pig be a girl or a boy? What should it's name be? Is this even a good idea?

Topics of Books

Hello, readers. I want to know your opinion this time!

I'm writing a lot of books and stories, but here are some ideas for some other ones. Tell me which ine you think is the best!

-The Mistress in the Closet. When Lanie finds a woman in the closet, she claims she was the Mistress of the old little girl who lived there. This woman says the girl who used to live there died, but Lanie doesn't believe it, but when things start to happen, is the mistress the only one to turn to?

What do you think of this one? I'll post more later.

Woodwind Instruments

Woodwinds, woodwinds, woodwinds! I think Woodwind instruments would be great for playing! You could probably rent a clarinet, flute, Saxophone, Piccolo, or Oboe from your local music store, and find out if your school or music store gives lessons. If not, maybe they could recommend a teacher and you could plan out times and dates. So what are you waiting for? Pick up and instrument and start playing!

Cats and Kittens

Meow! Get hopping to your local animal shelter and adopt some lonely bundles of cuteness and joy! Why? Because I think cats are something you should get. Here are some reasons you should adopt cats.

-They are great companions, they will run and jump and play with you, but they are just as happy to curl up on your lap.
- They can be very independent. The don't need to be walked like dogs, they can do it by themselves!
-There are so many kinds, you'll have lots to choose from.

But also, you should be ready for cats to come live with you. Here are some tips:

-Be sure you are equipped with everything. Get bowls, food water, litter box, and toys. Also, you should have the name of a vet and be comfortable cleaning the litter box. Also, if it's a kitten, make sure you get the right kind of food.
- The first or second week after adoption, take the cat to the vet just in case he needs stuff for goopy eyes or antibiotics for a bacteria. Don't get a cat from a run down place that doesn't look well taken care of
- If you don't want even more kittens, get you cat spayed or neutered unless he/she already is.

Enjoy your new snugglebug!

Silent to The Bone By E.L. Konigsburg: a Great Fifth and Sixth Grade Read

           Over the summer, I read a book called Silent to The Bone, by E.L. Konigsburg. I really like it and decided to review it on here. I think its a good book, but it's a little mature for younger kids.
             It's about a 13 year old boy, named Branwell, who is struck dumb when his little sister goes into a coma. Everyone blames him for dropping her, so he is sent to a behavioral center. That means its up to Connor, his best friend to find out what really happened.

It's a realistic mystery book, but it is fiction. I think it would be suitable for mature fifth and sixth graders, like me.

School

As you know, school is starting for kids and teens. A lot of kids are excited to go to school and eager to meet new people. But still, a lot of kids aren't excited or are nervous. I am going to provide some tips and suggestions that may help you get organized and ready to start or continue.

-Set a time to wake up and go to bed. Soon you'll get used to it, and if you don't, you can buy an alarm clock. It'll help you get up.

-Organize everything. Your desk at home and school. Your backpack. Even your lunch box! School will be a lot easier if you do this. Not saying that you have to, but it might help.

-In movies or books, they make the characters think that studying is everything. The truth is, I really don't think it's as important as having time to relax. Sure, you may need to do homework, but you should schedule maybe a couple 5 minute breaks or something that will give you a time to relax. Maybe schedule a day of meditation. 

You might've heard these before, but I think it is still important to tell you them. Have a safe and fun school year!
