Tuesdays at the Castle

Hey there! I thought I'd tell you about a book I just read. It is called Tuesdays at the Castle. I thought that it would be just another story about a prince and princess. But since I was bored, I thought, 'Why not read the first few chapters?' 

 The story takes place in a magical castle, with a king and queen. They had three children. Rolf, the oldest, was heir to the throne. Next was Delilah, she's the one who keeps things under control. Finally, there's little Cecelia, she was the castle's favorite and was mostly interested in the room and passageways. One day, the king and queen went out to the college of wizards. While on their way, they get ambushed by bandits. When news of their death devastates the kingdom, everyone turns to Rolf for a new leader. Meanwhile, neighboring kingdoms and his own council are plotting against him! The castle warns the three children and with the help of the maids and cooks, they defeat the plotters. They then realize that the news of their parents' death was false information. The king and queen come back to rule and all is well again.

 This was just a summary of the book. It was more than just an adventure story. It teaches you the importance of family. If you liked this summary, you'll LOVE the book! :-)

Harriet the Spy: Blog Wars

Hi there! Today I was watching a movie on Netflix called "Harriet the Spy: Blog Wars!" It is a Disney movie starring Jennifer Stone. A girl named Harriet Welsch is determined to win the title of class blogger. While on her "mission" Harriet realizes that the best thing to blog about was right in front of her! Harriet's entire school is obsessed with this new pop star named Skander Hills, the star of   the movie her father was producing called    Spy Teen .  But as she became more popular at school because of her blog, her friends had started to abandoned her. Before she knew it, Harriet had blogged about being "best friends" with Skander, and to prove it she went to extremes! She snuck onto the set, into his hotel room, and even followed him home! The final straw was when she posted on her blog that Skander hates his fans. Her father was about to lose the movie deal, that's when Harriet stepped in. Somehow she convinced Skander to do the movie.  ...

Penguins of Madagascar

Hey guys! I recently just saw a movie called Penguins of Madagascar. The Penguins of Madagascar movie was about four penguins who are on a mission to defeat the evil octopus, Dave. The funny thing is, that they don't even remember Dave! The octopus doesn't  like the penguins because when he was in the New York Zoo everyone was interested in him, until the penguins came. The cuteness of the penguins distracted everyone from the cool octopus. The poor thing was shipped from here to there, always losing to the penguins. Finally, he had had enough! Dave was through with always getting ignored. He hatched a plan to change all penguins, not just the four, from cute and cuddly to mean and ugly! There are four penguins: Skipper- the leader, Kowalski- the smart one, Rico- the crazy one, and Private- the cute one. No one thought of private as a real member. They only kept him in the team because he was cute! But, when Dave turned all the penguins into mean and ugly monsters, Priv...

A Little Princess

Hi everyone! I picked up a movie yesterday called A Little Princess.  I  had read the book, but I hadn't seen the movie. I thought, "It should be interesting to compare the movie to the book." With that in mind, I bought it.  The movie was a touching story about a little girl named Sara Crewe. Sara's father, Mr. Crewe, had to go into war. He put Sara under the responsibility of Miss Minchin's Seminary for Girls. When they arrived, Miss Minchin was there to greet them. She seemed very kind. The cold truth was that she was more interested in Sara's wealth rather than Sara herself. Miss Minchin lead the way to  little Sara's  room. While there, Mr. Crewe had to bid farewell to his daughter, for his boat would leave in a few minutes. He gifted his little princess a doll from France which he named Emily. "Whenever you miss me dearly," he said to Sara, "tell Emily. She will send me a message no matter where I am. When you hug her, you'll rea...
