Week 5 Monday

I have continued my reading in The Fall of Reach. The Covenant, the alien life-forms trying to wipe out the human race have found Reach and are attacking it. The Spartans jump into to save the second-most populated planet in the the entire human universe. (besides Earth) The Master Chief and his team of Spartans are fighting in the cities of New Alexandria and Visegrad. If the Covenant destroy Reach there will be nothing standing between Earth and the Covenant.

Tuesday Week 4

Post #50! Woo-Hoo! Unfortunately, I have read nothing. I hope to take the Where the Red Fern Grows AR test as soon as it is activated. Hopefully that is soon. I'm going to continue reading my book, The Fall of Reach soon as well.

Week 4 Monday

I finished Where the Red Fern Grows. The ending was sad. I guess it was good that Old Dan and Little Ann were trying to protect Billy, but it was still sad. I could have cried. When both Old Dan and Little Ann died and the red fern grew I was happy, but sad. I loved this book and would gladly read it again.

Week 2 Friday (Thursday)

Unfortunately I was not able to blog last night, but I am still reading. We are almost finished with Where the Red Ferns Grow. I will finish it tonight. Old Dan and Little Ann have gotten in a fight with a mountain lion, and they won. But they struggled with the mountain lion to protect Billy. After defeating the mountain lion Old Dan and Little Ann are suffering with serious consequences.

Tuesday Week 2: Where the Red Fern Grows

While Billy refused the kill the Ghost Coon the Pritchards dog came along and tried to kill the coon, but Billy refused to let them kill the coon. After Old Dan and Little Ann got in a fight with Old Blue, the Pritchards Hound, Rubin picks up Billy's ax and tries to kill Billy's dogs. Billy refuses, but after Rubin gets hit between the legs with a stick he falls to the ground. Billy has to pull his dogs off of Old Blue in order to keep them from killing the dog. When Billy goes back to Raine after he restrains his dogs Raine has a look of shock on his face and soon Billy sees why. After Raine runs off Billy goes of to Rubin to find he has been pierced in the stomach by Billy's ax. After removing the ax from Rubin's body Rubin dies. It's actually very sad thinking about it.

Week 2 Thursday

We are reading Where the Red Fern Grows in class. Billy has cut down that giant sycamore tree and his dogs killed the coon. And he had some help. But not from a person, from God. Now Billy has found out he can sell his coon-skin hides for money, big money. I am really enjoying this book so far.

Tuesday Week 2

We are still reading Where the Red Fern grows. I am enjoying it even more than yesterday. Billy finally got his dogs. He has a brave boy puppy and a smart girl puppy. They make a great combination already even as puppies. Billy and his puppies are going to make a great hunting team!

Reading Blog Week 2: Where the Red Fern Grows

As a class we are reading Where the Red Fern Grows. I am enjoying this book so far which is good because we are only in the beginning. Billy wants some coon-hounds and keeps begging his parents for two of them. He has found a Sportsman's Magazine and has found an ad for coon-hound pups for $25. I hope Billy gets his coon-hounds. He seems to want them pretty bad.
