Book

Chapter 1By Margaret Elise

In this morning’s news, we hear that the famous hedgehog Casper has been stolen. There is a rumor going around that the man or woman that stole Casper wore all black, and most people call him the man in black.

--------------------

This story is about a girl named Lucy Grim she is twelve years old, and lives in Oakland C.A.

She has a best friend named Jane Robertson she is the same age as Lucy and lives only thirty minutes away in Concord C.A.

When the girls heard about Casper they were very sad, because they love to see him act (He worked at a cercus).

Then one day when Lucy and Jane were having a sleep over, Lucy said, “We need to find Casper because if we do we will have enough money to pay for music lessons.” But they still had to figure out where the bad guy lived first.

But everyone they asked only asked them why they wanted to know, and they did not want anyone but themselves to know what they wanted to do, and none of the newspapers said anything about it. So, they must figure it out by themselves.

------------------

As they were taking a walk they met a boy and he looked very friendly, so Lucy said, “Hello who are you”

And the boy said, “Hullo my name is Isaac Walck and who are you” “I am Lucy” said Lucy “And this is my friend Jane” “Where do you live?” said Jane “I live in concord and Lucy lives here on

Filbert St”Then Isaac said, “I have a friend that lives in concord, how old are you?” “We are both twelve years old” said Jane “And how old are you may I ask”

“Well I am thirteen almost fourteen” “We are going to look for the missing Casper and the bad guy, would you

like to come with us?”.

-----------------------Isaac became great friends with both the girls.They all tried to finger out were the bad guy lived. They got even more

information from Isaac Walck.So finely after a lot of work they fingered out that a very little amount of

people had seen him and that he lived in a forest somewhere in C.A. and the person that found the hedgehog would get 1,000 dollars and 1,000 more dollars for finding the bad guy and taking him to the police. So, if they did they would get 2,000 dollars.

One day when Isaac and the girls were looking at a map they saw a forest that was called The Haunted Wood.

“We all totally forgot about that wood that is probably were the man in black lives” said Lucy “Now one ever goes in there, people are scared to go in because it is so dark that is why it is called the haunted wood.” “It is only two miles away” Said Jane “Let me tell my mom that we are going to go on a two-mile hike and we might stay a while, then she will give us snakes” and so they got too flash lights one for Lucy and one for Jane and they told Isaac to go home and get a flash light for himself. And they set off.

They decided to take the bus to the end of the neighborhood and then they walked the rest of the way. When they got there, they were all huffing and puffing and very hungry, so they eat some of the snakes and went in the wood.

The wood seemed like a normal wood and they went some ways in, but they made sure that they wrote down where they went so they could get back out of the wood. So, they came to a tree that had a red stripe on it. The girls thought that it was a trail marked for towers.

How to Make Some Accessories for your dolls dog (your mini pretend pup)Dog toy: Supplies: 2 small pompoms same color, duct tape toilet paper cardboard roll (not the actual toilet paper though) Instructions: Cover 2 pompoms with same colored duct tape. Now get the toilet paper cardboard roll and tape duck-tape all over the sides then tape 1 pompom using duck-tape to each opening, here's the pic for this:

Dog bowls: Supplies: Cardboard, 2 lids from a plastic water bottle, plastic water bottle, scissors, pen/pencil, adult. Instructions: gravity water bowl:(note don’t actually put water in this) get the lid and water bottle and cut the water bottle so that it goes from right above the crevice where the tag for the water bottle company is and goes all the way to the lid(you only cut right above the crevice not anywhere else on the bottle)then cut it on the bottom using the top as a measure by putting the bottle on the top tightly then cut it right above where it can go. Then tape it, and tape half of the opening (where the lid usually goes). Now cut a bit of what’s on the remaining of the original water bottle about a small rectangle, and tape it somewhere on the tape, that’s the support stand now get your lid and attach it to the remainder of the hole so that if you put water in it, it goes into the lid completely and not on the floor. Now if you want you can add some extras to the opening and you can even use it in real life (not for your toy though) by putting water in it but the lid might want to be slightly bigger and the tape thicker. Also, if you noticed the top of the gravity water bowl can be used as a food bowl.

Note: don’t put dog in water or cut your dog’s fur it could change it forever and pretend dogs don’t grow hair back. And make sure to have an adult on hand for any projects requiring scissors, or if you are aloud to use scissors or your own make sure to use good safety and use safety scissors if you are below 9 (because it’s important that you do not get hurt).

PoetryBy Margaret Elise

Remember

Remember remember,The day the day when we

all looked at the bird in tree,

It looked at me then the tree and then at me

again.But then I said, “It looked

at me” and so it flew away.

Happy Day

Happy Day, happy day,I wish I could say

this happy day has come with so much joy.

AnimalsThe cat is mine,The dog is thine.

So, there for go and search for wine.

Sleep

What so you say today today what do you say

tomorrow.

The afternoon is coming soon and so is the

evening.

The Day is Done

The day is done the music is on,

but then it stops and starts again.

Things

The horse has come the day is done,

so now I say goodnight,but then I think there is

one more thing I need to do tonight.

The Cat, Rat, and Bat

The cat ran after the rat,And the rat ran after the

bat,And the bat ran after the

cat,So, they ran and ran

around and around for the rest of their lives.

Poem by, K.G.

In the darkness of the night,Underneath a street light bright,The north wind whirls And quickly swirls,A million points of light.Round the light a gale blows,Landing flakes, where no one knows,Somewhere in the billions,

And even the trillions,Pile up in layers of snow.Draped for sledding down a hill,Or rolled for snowballs thrown at will,Sprinkled on evergreens,Over fields far seen,Fills one full of Narnian thrills.The sun arises, a flower grows,And a final white star lands down on a rose,In her pink heart it lies,

And quietly dies,A new life, it lovingly sows.

A Christmas Prayer By K.G.One little star quietly shoneOn the night that Christ was born.One little hope filled untold hearts,And banished despair forlorn.

One little prayer says everything;The news an angel had brung."Peace be on earth." one small boy adds,"God bless us, everyone."

St. Leonty's church in Rostov the Great, RussiaAn old church stands in holinessBeneath the snow;

Which dances lightly through the air,To and fro;Whose purity and happiness noneBut God may know.

Waterfall By K. G.In deep recesses of the woodThere is a roaring fall.A cascade of majestic splendor,A roaring, foaming wall.

Like a beast of sparkling liquid,Strong to break the rocks.White foam down the wall is running,A shepherd's stampeding flock.

And swiftly flowing on its course,It runs down winding trails.And as it slowly turns tranquil,It slows, but never fails.

The Ice Skating Song

By Samantha TeganIt’s time to go, get up and go to ice skate, where you feel like home. You put your ice skates on you get on the ice you go. It feels like your flying while your gliding on the ice, you could just go

on for hours. Now it’s time for figure skating and you glide then jump oh bump you twist you turn. You feel like your dancing while flying, but you’re only skating you want more but your

buying to flying. You'll come back another day, way soon.

RecipesFrom “Everything on a Waffle

Pear SoupMiss Bowzer invented this recipe. Neither one of us wanted to ask Miss Honeycut for one. Put 4 cups of chicken broth and 1 cup of white wine in a big pot. Peel and core 6 pears and poach them in

the chicken and wine until soft. Puree. Add 1 cup of crumbled Stilton cheese and 1 cup of grated Gruyere cheese. Serve

garnished with garlic croutons.

Cherry Pie Pork ChopsPreheat oven to 325 degrees. In a hot skillet put a little oil and

drop in the pork chops so that they sizzle and sear. Put some salt and pepper on them. Spoon 2 tablespoons of cherry pie filling on top of each chop and a little fruit juice on the bottom of the pan, say half an inch; pineapple is good. Cover the pan and bake for

one hour. Take the chops out carefully so that the pie filling remains on top. Take some of the grease out of the pan, but not all of it, and add to the pan juices about a cup of sour cream. Put the sauce on the bottom of the plate and the chops on top of the

sauce.

A tyrant to a kingby EJL

Chapter 1 The Gutter

Once there were five cats named Lentil, Biscuit, Dash, Jasper, and Red. they all lived together in 1061 Aviary Aubrey TX. now you must know that dash was an incredibly fast cat, you see he was so fast that at top speed he could outrun a quarter horse. Lentil had cat magic. Biscuit was lentil’s master in cat magic. Jasper, unlike most cats loved reading about history and geography. Red was nobody else but lentil’s father. One day they were living there lives as usual, there was a huge KABOOM. fire everywhere. “will we ever escape the flames?” wondered Lentil. “Remain calm,” Biscuit reminded herself. they ran across the street and found a gutter, it was dark, it was

spooky. whatever was down there couldn’t possibly be as bad as what was behind them. could it? so in they went.

Rainbow Loom ActivitiesHow to make a Single Chain Bracelet

How to make a Lime Charm Start with your loom in the same figuration as bellow. Then take a white rubber

band and put it over the first four pegs.

Then put three more white rubber bands over the other pegs doing the same

thing.

Then add a green rubber band to the first middle peg to the first left peg. Then

add another green rubber band from the first left peg to the second left peg. And do this all the way up the loom alternating as shone.

Then it is time to start looping. Turn your loom around and loop all the dangles

that you made as shone above and bellow.

. Now here is the triky part, take the white band that is closest to you and loop it to the peg in front of it (not the one that it ended on)then take the bangle band

and hock it to the peg in front of it and do this all the way up the loom. Then when you are done, make sure you get all the bands on your hook it might not

look good but then put it on a single green rubber band and tigh it off.

If you made the single string bracelet then you can put it on it by putting it though the middle of your lime.

Word Scramble

Preteen Girls Bible StudyWe are going to do a Christian Bible Study every single month so be sure to have a few

things on hand: Pencil, Paper or Keyboard and Computer and a Bible. This is going to be a Psalms Bible Study for a few months then we will do another book

of the Bible for a few months and so on. This month we get to read some really good verses/chapters:

Psalm 1 - 3 today we are talking about several different subjects the 1st one is Psalm 1 says that you shouldn’t listen and follow along with the wicked, sinners, and mockers and it talks about how great it is to be happy in the law of the Lord and what it is like to be wicked for the Lord watches over the path of the Godly by the path of sinners leads to destruction. Psalms 2 asks why the nations are so angry, joining together with a plan against so. But God laughs in heaven and in anger he rebukes (get a dictionary for this word) them, he says his chosen King is on the throne in Jerusalem on my Holy mountain, so Kings act wisely. I warn you rulers of earth serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Submit to God royal son or he will be angry, and you will die in the midst of your all your activities for his anger flares up in an instant. But for what joy for all who take refuge in him. Let’s take a minute to think about that, that was intense but it’s true. Psalms 3 a Psalm of David regarding the time David fled from one of his sons: Lord I have many enemies, many are against me. Many say, 'God will never rescue him' but you God are a shield around me, you are my glory, the one who holds my head high. I cried out to the Lord, and he answered me from his Holy mountain. I lay down and sleep, yet I woke up in safety, for the Lord was watching over me. I am not afraid of 10 thousand enemies surrounding me on all sides. Arise O Lord rescue me, my God. Slap all enemies on the face. Shatter the teeth of the wicked. Victory comes from you, O Lord. May you bless are people.

Wow that was pretty deep from David, can you think of any versus/chapter in Psalms super similar to that Psalm?

Well it’s time for questions:1. Put yourself in David’s shoes: How would you feel if you fled from your son?2. What’s some things you could do to be more Christian/spend more time with God?3. What if you were one of the rulers of the earth (that we read about) how would you

feel, know compare them to you. What’s one way you could be less like them and more in Gods image?

4. Do you read the Bible a lot? If so what do you think the Bible's main subject (most talked about)? And if you don’t read the Bible that often (only on Sundays) how is Psalms different from other books of the Bible?

5. What did you learn this month from this Bible Study?
