Book Review: Tom Sawyer

A few weeks ago I read a book called The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. It's about a boy who gets into trouble a lot with his friend Huckleberry Finn. In one adventure Tom, Huck and Joe Harper run away to an island on the Mississippi river. There they stay till Tom sneaks back to his aunts house to see her. There he listens to her and Joe's mom talking about him and Joe. When he sneaks back he tells Huck and Joe about it and they decide to go back on their funeral. When they go back they surprise everybody there. Another time he finds a bunch of gold!!

This is Tom Sawyer.

This is the Author Mark Twain.

Book Review: The Call of the Wild

This is a map of the Yukon Territory where the story takes place.

This is a picture of what Buck may have looked like.

This is the author, Jack London.

The Call of the Wild is a book written by Jack London. It is about a dog named Buck who is dognapped and taken to Alaska to pull sleds. While he is there he slowly becomes a wild dog and hunts with wolves. One of my favorite parts is when he hunts a moose. He tracks the moose until the moose wears out. This shows that Buck is becoming more wild. He meets a man on the way named John Thorton. He saves John Thorton a lot of times because he loves him as his master. One time, Buck pulled a 1,000 pound sled 100 yards to help John Thorton win a bet. In the end some Indians kill John Thorton and Buck becomes wild.

I sort of liked this book. I would give it a 7 out of 10.

The Air Force Museum

A couple days ago we went to the Dayton Air Force Museum with some of our friends. We got to see tons of planes! Here are some of the pictures:

Here is the engine of a plane.

These are some space rockets(they're big!).

These are half of the planes in one room.

This is what carried the baby and our stuff.

We had a lot of fun!

Robinhood

Robinhood was a man who was outlawed in the Middle Ages for shooting one of the King's deer. He then robbed from the rich and gave to the poor. Prince John had many taxes on the people and this made them poor. He lived in Sherwood Forest with his band of Merry Men who dressed in Lincoln Green. Some of his men were: Little John, Will Stutely, Allen A-Dale and Friar Tuck. His enemy was the Sheriff of Nottingham who collected the taxes for Prince John. King Richard, who was the real king, was away on the crusades. Everyone was waiting for him to come back and get rid of Prince John.

Today me and my brothers took some pictures of a Lego Robin hood battle. Here they are.

Here is a picture of their fort in Sherwood Forest.

Little John and Robinhood guard their fort with catapults.

One day, some of the Sheriff of Nottingham's men came.

The Neil Armstrong Museum

Last week we went to the Neil Armstrong museum with some of our friends. Here are some of the pictures.

This is the museum. The big dome at the top is a theater where they show the stars.

This is what they wear on the moon. On Earth it weighs 190 pounds but on the moon it only weighs 32 pounds.

This is a rocket at the museum.

This is kind of like a air hockey table because it blows air out of tiny holes in the table. first you push a tiny puck around the table. As it slow down it moves closer to Earth.

This is a command center in the museum where you can pretend to fly the rocket.

This is my sister Abagail.

this is me Caleb.

This is my brother Adam.

We had lots of fun there!

A couple days ago we went to Cincinnati to see my dad when he came back from his trip. We got to stay in a hotel that had a pool! Here are some of the pictures of our trip.

This is what our pool looked like(at the bottom there is a hot tub).

These are my two brothers.

And this is my sister Abigail.

We had a fun time!
