Book Review: Shades of Gray

Shades of Gray, by Carolyn Reeder

Out of all the books I have read Shades of Gray is ranked about #47.

     The main character is Will Page.He lost his whole family in the Civil War.His brother died while taunting the Yankees, his dad died while fighting for the confederates. His sisters died from a disease, and his mother died of grief.
     Will Page did not like the Yankees, so when he is forced by his mothers will, to go live with his aunt and uncle, Will does not like it. Even though his uncle lives in a confederate area, Will's uncle decides not to fight with the confederates. Will does not like it and calls his uncle a coward, but he changes his mind when his cousin Meg convinces him that her dad is not a coward, and that they have had some tragedies of their own.
     In the end Will has to decide whether to stay or to go to his dad's kind friend.  I won't tell you what he chose - you should read it.

Little Red Riding Hood...

(....the jcpenney version.)

One day a little girl was taking goodies to her grandma, when she saw a wolf!

"What do you have in the basket?" asked the wolf.

"Why do you want to know?" Little Red Riding Hood said.

"Because I like goodies!" he said while running after her. Then the wolf disappeared and the little girl didn't know where she was!

One day, the little girl's grandma went to hunt for deer. Then when she was gone, the wolf went into her house and dressed like her. Little Red Riding Hood went in her grandma's house and said, "I'm here!"

The wolf said, "Just bring them in here!"

Then she came in and said, "What big eyes you have! What big ears you have! And what big teeth you have!"

Then the wolf ate her (and the goodies)!

Then the grandma came in, and the wolf only ate the deer - he was a little full.
