Mrs.Jones And The Blue Suede Shoes

Author's Note: In the paragraph you are about to read is how I predicted the ending as if the story "Yes, Ma'am" goes on. 

In 2 years I see Roger in school with his friends. Someone has offered him a home and he took it. A lady with no one saw him on the side of the street a year ago. She took him home just like Mrs. Jones and they got to know each other. He talks to her like she's family. After about a month or two of knowing him, she put him in school. Roger now has many friends. He also kept his old blue suede shoes, just to remember Mrs. Jones. About a year later he still remembered Mrs. Jones and one day while walking downtown he saw her bag he ran up to her and they both recognized each other. She greeted him by saying  "Now son, don’t go trying to grab my pocket book, now how are those blue suede shoes?" She took him to lunch and she gave him her number. After that one day, they became the best of friends. 

Crank the Ending

Author's Note: This is a prediction piece on the book "Crank" by Ellen Hopkins I am currently reading. I have no idea how this book ends, so you get to read my summary of the ending that I predict.

Katrina sees herself as two different people. "Bri" on the outside and "Katrina" on the inside. After she met her neighbors boyfriend she has been forced to do bad things. He wasn’t the type of boy you would bring home for your parents to meet. He was the kind of boy who you wanted to spend time with and keep him a secret. She thought he was perfect.

 Katrina's dad was a huge drug addict. The one thing he told her not to do, was drugs, that was his biggest mistake in life, because you can never quit. Drugs got her dad no where in life. As Katrina meets her new friend he pulls out what seems to be drugs. She gets forced into doing them. She does and regrets them, cant stop. She's only at her dads house for a limited amount of time. 3 weeks to get rid of everything. About 3 days before she leaves, she finally tells her dad. He then tells her she can stay longer, with nodding her head, she accepts the offer.

She's happy to be with her dad again, but feeling terrible about what she's done. When she told her dad he didn't have an answer. He just kept going on with his conversation about her staying. She then leaves her perfect little boy because he has completely changed her. She goes on with her life. One step at a time. She learns to forget the past and continues to try her best to quit. She finally has the urge to stop. It all goes back together now. Her life is completely the same and she goes back to her mothers house. In the end she gets to go back and fourth to see her dad again. She earned his trust back. She learned how to love again.

This prediction is  what I think would happen for the ending. I am not all the way finished with my book, but I am almost positive that something like this may happen. I am so used to having many books end this way. They meet, fall, in love and that's the end. I have kind of changed it up a bit for my prediction.

Nina/Re-telling

Author's Note: In these upcoming paragraphs you will read my re-telling piece about Nina, from the book "Among the Betrayed" by Margaret Peterson Haddix.

In this period of time, you weren't allowed to have more than two kids. A girl, Nina, was a third, illegal child. If she gets caught being an illegal child, she has to go to a prison. Nina was betrayed by a boy that she loved. She was taken away from the population police. Nina has to get three shadow children to admit that they are illegal children and Nina can be set free. If she doesn't then Nina will be killed immediately .

Nina dislikes the deal. She doesn’t want to give up these innocent children and she doesn't want to be immediately killed if she doesn’t cooperate. She tries escaping, she succeeded. They get caught and begins to turn into a huge twist! This book is great for readers who like action and suspense.

Thanksgiving

Author's Note: In these upcoming paragraphs you will read my story of Thanksgiving.

The delicious smell of the warm bread sitting on the table, I can already taste it. The smell of Thanksgiving in the heated house. Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to spend with family or friends. Where you can sit at the table and eat the scrumptious meal that brought everyone together.  The time to learn something new about each and every person that you haven't seen in a long time.

Great foods are cooked sitting at the table. You look into the big wide turkey and cant wait to take a piece. The perfectly cooked stuffing sitting right beside the white buttered mashed potatoes. After everyone has greeted each other, it's time to dig in. You reach for the wide heavy spoon full of cranberries. These dark purple, jelly like, sweet food. Can't wait to fill your plate with amazing foods. The large glass plate is full and you begin eating.

After your dinner is over you talk with your family and friends. Great things happening in each others lives. Thanksgiving is a great gathering for food and family/ friend fun. What do you think of when the word Thanksgiving is said? Again, Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to spend with family or friends.

Connie/ Character Analysis

Author's Note: In the upcoming paragraph you will read is how a 13 year old girl, Connie, changes from a pacific situation.

Connie is a 13 year old girl that is always compared to her sister June, especially about her mother. Connie's feelings change through out the story. A warm afternoon Connie's family went to a cook out and she stayed home alone. She heard a car coming down her long gravel driveway and it was a boy who looked about 18 years old. She felt concerned. Connie thought she had control over this whole situation. After all, she was the kind of girl who flirted with boys. Combed her hair and had to look all pretty for going out. She was the bad girl of the family unlike her goody two shoes sister, June.

As the conversation kept going from this boy, Arnold Friend, the 18 year old boy, and Connie, she realizes she is losing control and she becomes scared each and every minute. Connie seems to think she can make this guy leave her property, but she was wrong. He kept talking about her being his love and he wanted her to get into the car with him and his creepy friend, Ellie.

As the time goes by she realizes he Is not leaving and towards the end she loses complete control and gives in to Arnold Friend. Her feelings went from normal, happy, and self- centered to scared, helpless, and afraid.

Towards the end her feelings can relate to David's feelings from "A child called it" by David Pelzer. He was abused by his psychotic mother and he was sad and helpless practically his whole childhood. When I read the story about Connie, it had reminded me about David and his horrible childhood.
