"Prepare"

(The kids are participating in an "art" blog where they create a picture each based based on one word. I'm just putting up a few of their pics from each week. This is their first word. Top pic - Delaney; bottom pic- Sara)

Book review: The Secret Garden

The Secret Garden
 by Frances Hodgson Burnett

There are a few main characters in this book. I like this book because it's so exciting. Mary Lennox , one of the main characters, goes to her uncle's mansion where she finds a secret garden. No one has been in it for 10 years, and she makes it come to life with the help of another main character, Dickon. He lives on the moor with his10 brothers and sisters. Along the way she finds her uncle's son, Colin. I'll let you read the rest.

My favorite part of the book is when the robin shows Mary where the key is. My least favorite part was when Mary was in India. Out of 10 stars, I would give The Secret Garden 8 1/2 stars.
