Miss Spitfire - Book Review

Imagine being deaf and blind, with no one understand standing your needs or wants. All you can do is scream. That's the story of Helen Keller.

The story starts in 1887 when Anne Sullivan arrives at Ivy Green. Helen has a very aggressive attitude. D-o-l-l Anne spells into Helen's hand while she holds a doll in her other. Anne decides to teach Helen like this. The only problem is her attitude. She bites, scratches and kicks. Anne tries her best to teach Helen. Day by day, Helen grows more obedient and caring.

This book is amazing and I would recommend it to everyone. It is the miracle of learning. I think everyone can enjoy this book because there aren't lots of stories like this.

What will Greg Heffley do when it's a snow day? He'll have a neighbourhood snow battle, that's right. Greg Heffley lives on Surrey Street and it's quite different from your average neighbourhood. On Surrey Street, you're either a hill kid or a non-hill kid. Greg and the hill kids can't stand the non-hill kids. In the summer the kids at the bottom never let the hill kids play down there. But in the winter the tables are turned. The hill is amazing for sledding and all the non-hill kids want in. Upper Surrey Street ambushing lower Surrey Street kids If you really want to enjoy and understand this book you have to know your Wimpy.

In fact, I really love the entire series. I would recommend this book to ages 10-12. Something I would love to see is this book in movie for...

TIGER - Movie Review

Pardeep Singh Nagra was a boxer. Well, more than that actually. Tiger is a movie based on the true story of Pardeep Singh Nagra. Pardeep was born and raised in Canada. He faced lots of discrimination because of his faith and culture. He was raised by his aunt and uncle because his parents moved to India. In the movie, Pardeep had lots of rage and anger. That's how he became a boxer. He let out all his anger with each punch. The boxing club that he attended was filled with racists. He got better day by day with practise and support from his coach and soon from his fellow boxers. The problem soon arose. The ABC (American Boxing Commission) didn't approve of Pardeep boxing. It was because he had a beard and the rules say the boxer must be clean shaved. Pardeep and his lawyer fought until he was allowed to box. But did it work? Watch the movie to find out! I can relate to the movie. I have witnessed and faced racism countless times. I think that what Pardeep...

Earth's Cavities

Earth’s Cavities Candy is a kid's fantasy. That exemplifies why we eat so much of it, but it doesn't explain why the wrappers end up on the street. If you walk around your block, you can find enough wrappers to wear. So let's take a look at the sour side of this sweet. Halloween. We all know about it and all the candy we can get. Did you know 600 pounds of candy is bought in the season of Halloween in America? With all these wrappers there has to be a solution but still be able to celebrate Halloween, right? Well, there is! You can give out candy that is in boxes! Dots, Milk Duds, and Nerds all come in recyclable cardboard packaging. You can also buy your candy in bulk and make 'Mystery Bags’. Many candies are wrapped in plastic, and that plastic is made of lots. Bits of plastic, aluminum, and paper make up a candy wrapper. It's hard to recover all those materials to recycle. When these wrappers are thrown on the ground or in the ga...
