An Owl Story

Wow, an owl bit the old wet muddy tree.  He said "yuck" and spit out some bark.  So he went to visit his mouse friend named Mouse and said "hello Mouse, do you know of any good food nearby?"

And Mouse said "I like cheese, but I don't think you'll like it.  I know of a tree that keeps its leaves in fall."

"Please tell me where it is" begged Owl.

"Okay" said Mouse feeling very relieved.  "It's right over that hill."

"Thank you, thank you" hurried Owl.  And off he flew over to the tree that keeps its leaves all fall. When he arrived he tried some leaves and ... he liked them!

And he was very happy.

Yes, a muddy lizard swam suddenly on a wave.  But it got windy and the waves got too rough.  And he decided to swim to a nearby island.  It turned out that it was his home island.  All of his family yelled 'welcome home!" and the lizard was very happy.

Book Report on A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

A Christmas Carol was written by Charles Dickens in 1843. This book is about a man named Scrooge who does not like anything about Christmas.

It starts when the ghost of his partner Marley tells him that three spirits (ghosts) will visit him and tell him what Christmas is about.  When the first ghost visits him it shows him Scrooge's past Christmas.  Then when the next ghost visits it shows him Christmas present.  Finally the third ghost shows him Christmas future. And then the last chapter shows what happens to Scrooge after his experience with the ghosts

And I like at the end where he finally truly understands and celebrates Christmas.
But I don't like how long the chapters are.  I would read it again.
