Don't Litter

Do you litter?  I don't.  Littering is bad for the environment and you!  So why litter?  I don't see any reason why you should!

If you just dump garbage everywhere, it will be all over the place.  Golf balls take 100 to 1000 years to decompose, wow!  Also, litter can cause water pollution.  Instead, put your garbage in garbage cans or recycle if you can.  So why litter if you can put it where it belongs?

If you litter, it can kill some animals.  If you dump garbage in the ocean, a leatherback sea turtle might mistake it for a jelly fish and eat it.  Parts of cigarettes have been found in the stomachs of birds, fish, and whales.  Some other animals might try to eat it too.  So you can see, litter is very dangerous to animals.

Littering is also against the law.  You can get a fine ranging from $100 to $1000.  It depends on how much litter is already there and where you are.  In some places there are signs that remind you to not litter.  I think it's better if you don't litter.


So now do you think it's right to litter?  It pollutes the environment, it kills animals, and you have to pay a lot of money if you do!  There are no reasons to litter.  There should be no littering at all!  So, agree with me and don't litter.

Treasure Island book report

Treasure Island is written by Robert Louis Stevenson.  The main characters are Jim Hawkins, Long John Silver, and Dr. Livesly.  The setting is on an old, almost deserted island called Treasure Island.

Jim Hawkins gets a treasure map, and Dr. Livesly, Long John Silver, and a whole lot of others go out to look for the treasure.  Then, Long John Silver, and most of the other guys turn against them!  I think you should read the book to find out what happens.

I really like Treasure Island.  I think that it is one of the best books I ever read.  The movie skips a lot of it, and changed a few parts.  I think this is a very good book for someone to read.

Things I Like To Do

Do you like to learn about animals?  Do you like to go to the zoo?  Do you like to learn?    I like all of the above! Now, I'll tell you what I like about them.

I really like to read about animals.  Reading helps me to learn about animal behavior and what they eat.  I like detailed animal books because they give me lots of information.  This helps me a lot because I am going to have a job with animals when I grow up.

Going to the zoo is lots of fun.  I can see most of the animals I like.  Visiting the zoo helps me to learn about animals by observing them and reading the posted signs.  At my local zoo, there are so many animals you can't see them all in one day.  Some of my favourite animals at the zoo are moose, fish, and grizzly bears.

I also really like to learn.  Learning makes me happy and smarter too.  There are so many things I like to learn.  My top 3 favourites are zoology, astronomy, and chemical reactions.  I plan to learn computer programming.  I am learning Arabic, Chinese, and Ancient Greek in school.

Do you like those things?  I really like them.  I hope that you like them too.  Everyone likes different things, I hope that these are some of them.

Conserve Animals

Do you love animals?  I do!  I like animals so much that I would do zoology for most of the day if I could!  I think that poaching is one of the worst things in the world.

Animals are very fun to watch, and I know this because I love animals.  For example, it is fun to watch my fish zip across the tank.  The red-tailed shark is classified as extinct in the wild!  If an animal is extinct then it is impossible to watch.

If one animal disappears from the ecosystem the whole ecosystem might go wild!  For example, fish clean hippos in the water , and birds clean it on land.  If hippos disappear those animals might disappear as well!

Tons and tons of animals are endangered.  There are so many that you would probably need a 1000 page book to cover them all!  Animals are becoming more endangered by the day.

Now do you like animals?  You probably won't like them as much as I.  Even if you don't like animals, tell the government to ban poaching.  Please, go to World Wildlife.org and see what you can do.

Reasons to have fish as pets

Once I went to the fish store for the first time.  And I was amazed at how many different kinds of fish there were.  It was so hard to decide.  So hard that I picked an expert level fish! I think fish are the best pets in the world.

               

Watching fish is a lot of fun, because they rush up to eat when you feed them.  And I like to watch them zoom across the tank.  Corydoras are fun to watch because they hurry up to the top of the tank to get air.

There are hundreds of different fish to put in different kinds of tanks.  So far I've kept Yellow Lab Cichlids, Albino Zebra Cichlids, Guppies, Mollies, Marble Hatchetfish, Swordtails, Corydoras, and Platys.  You can keep fish from Piranhas to Goldfish.  And I'm not going to keep Piranhas or Pacus!

And finally, fish are the easiest pets to take care of.  Because all you need to do is feed them, clean out their tank, and care for diseases if they have any.  Feeding fish is easy.  You just put in a few pinches of food.  And curing diseases are very easy too.  You just need to buy the right cure and follow the instructions.

There is so much still for me to learn.  And I'm looking forward to learning it.  Now, do you think fish are the best pets in the world?  I still like going to the fish store as much as the first time I went there.  

Fish Health Machine

Want to know if one of your live bearers is pregnant?  Want to know if your fish have any diseases?     Then buy the Fish Health Machine!

Instructions...Take a picture of the fish that you want to find health information about.  It will tell you if your fish have any diseases.  You will see detailed name and health information.  Common and scientific!  Additional feature... You put in the name of the fish and a profile of that fish pops up.

I just really hope I can make it a real invention someday.

The Hobbit book report

The Hobbit was written by J.R.R. Tolkien.  The story begins and ends in a village named Hobiton.  The main characters are the Hobbit, dwarfs, Gandalf, and Smaug.

They leave Hobiton to defeat Smaug the dragon, and they get to rest at Gandalf's friend's house.  They get caught by trolls. Later they get caught by giant spiders.

They get across the Misty mountains, getting caught by goblins along the way.  Bilbo (the Hobbit) finds a ring.  The ring has 3 books after this and I'm in the middle of the first one.  They enter Mirkwood.

At the end, Bilbo gets home. But it was in the middle of his house getting sold!  I really liked this book.  And I think anyone who likes adventure books will like this book and the Lord of the Rings.  That's the one I'm in the middle of.
