The Demigod Diares-Text to text

      I'm reading The Demigod Diaries by Rick Riordan and I can connect this to The Lightning Thief ,by Rick Riordan, by several factors. One factor is the setting because they are the same in both books. Some of the characters in the books are the same. One last factor is that they are written by the same author. These are some of the amazing ways these books are the same.

     First, these books are similar because of the setting sometimes. In The Lightning Thief one of the setting are New York. In the book The Demigod Diaries one of the settings are New York. These books also have some of the same characters like Percy and Anabeth. Also these books were written by the same author who is name Rick Riordan.

     Rick Riordan is a magnificent author of both of these books. I feel this helps to carry the same theme of both books. I enjoy both books so much its hard to pick a favorite. I feel anyone reads the first book they wont be able to stop until they read the whole series.

pursued #2

I am reading the book Pursued  by Jerry B Jenkins. The series is called left behind they have 16 books in that series. Someone made a movie out of the whole series and called "Left Behind ". I can make a big connection to the movie because the line plot and the theme is the same. The plot line in the book is that hundredths and millions of people disappeared and they don't know why. The plot line in the movie is when god comes back and takes everyone to heaven. Then when they come back they all turn christian and stay that way for the rest of there other life. I love this book and that movie.
    I can connect the movie left behind to the book pursed because to the movie left behind because  they  have the same plot line but different actors and different actions to make the book more interesting. The plot line in both the  books and the movie is: millions of people disappear and some are left behind and they have no idea why.
       In conclusion both of these  books/ movies are very interesting and i hope you watch/ read it!

Where the Red Fern Grows- Text to Text

My last post was about how I could connect with Where the Red Fern Grows in my personal life and I hope you enjoyed it. This time I am relating Where the Red Fern Grows with another text. I am able to compare Where the Red Fern Grows with many movies and texts. What has happened recently in the book is Billy was able to cut down the big sycamore tree to get the coon down and kill it. The next week Billy, Old Dan, and Little Ann go hunting, but conflict strikes. Little Ann falls in the icy cold river and is drowning by the minute. Billy has no hope and thinks she is gone. Then, Billy prays and figures out what to do to save his dog. He finally figures out what to do. He goes into the water and gets a big fishing pole to attach to Little Ann's collar. After minutes and Minutes of trying to attach the pole to her collar, he finally gets it under the leather and is able to pull her to safety. At first they were all numb, but were able to warm up by the fire. Oh, and don't forget Old Dan. He tries to help his sister too. He tries to pull up her collar to help Billy get the pole under easier. Than, one day the Pritchard boys come to Billy's Grandpa's store and make a bet with him that he and his dogs can get the ghost coon that lives near them, they get two dollars. Now I know you might be wondering "That is not enough", but back then, two dollars was a lot of money. They were unsuccessful though, because the Pritchard boys found their lost dog and Billy's dogs almost killed him. Unfortunately, Rubin got hurt with ax and it was very bad.

This scene reminds me of a similar scene in the book in My Side of the Mountain because Sam saves a hawk from danger in the forest. Much like how Billy saves his hound from danger in the forest. The danger in My Side of the Mountain are hunters because the scene is the forest and it's hunting season. The danger in Where the Red Fern Grows is Little Ann is drowning in the cold river. Fortunately, Billy and Sam both save their animals from the danger that lies ahead. The character Sam is like Billy because both are brave are brave boys who both share a love for the forest. They both know what they want to do and they both have  the courage to take on any task at hand.

This story teaches so many life lessons. For example, "Never give up", "Try your best", and "Always have faith." These apply to everyone's life everyday. I wonder why Billy's Grandpa would take the bet from the Pritchard boys about Billy's hounds hunting the ghost coon. I thought he was all about no bets and you can do anything you can dream of. I observed the Pritchard boys and it seems like they are kind of rich and they own a lot of things. If I were Billy I would not take the bet because I would already know that my hounds are the best and they can get the ghost coon. The character I most admire is Little Ann because she might be little, but she's fierce, just like me. She is tough, fierce, and strong and no body can stand in her way. She is the character I most admire.

Stargazer / Lighting Thief

   I am reading the book Stargazer  by Patrick Carman, and I can relate that book with  Percy Jackson and The Lightening Thief  by Rick Riordan. The summery of Stargazer so far is  this is a adventure book that many characters put their life after others. Also at first they are stuck on the sea. Their is a under the sea monster that they are  trying to figure out what it is and what it wants. They try to fight the monsters but the monster is to powerful for some of the humans. They also get across the see to try to find different nonhuman creatures. After a tragic attack many people get stuck in a boat with no food or water because of the monster. They have no choice but to try to fight to get off of the boat and on to safety. The summary of the Lighting Thief is Chrion  the head of camp, sends Percy  quest zeus ( a Greek God). stolen lighting bolt everyone things its a Poseidon the god of the sea, stole the lightening bolt.  During the quest Percy learns that Poseidon is his father.

            Percy Jackson in the Lightening thief reminds me of my friend Amanda because Percy is brave and so is Amanda.  In Stargazer  Alexis is such a dare person and so am I if you tell me to do something I  will cause I am such a dare person. I love doing dares but some I will back out of if they can kill me. I can connect Miranda to Percy in The Lightening Thief   because he likes being a leader and so does Miranda. I can relate The lightening Thief to me because i am just a outgoing person and I will never stop until I finish my job. Stargazer and The lightening Thief are connected to the world by fights and crimes that happen all the time. In Stargazer getting stuck in the sea happens in real life about every day in different places, and in The Lightening Thief  committing  crimes haven everyday in life so they relate to the world.
   I love the way I hated the two books at the beginning but at the middle and end I fell in love with the two books because they went from boring to amazing in details.  I love these books and their authors I think you guys should read these two books and or read a book from the authors.

chapter 1 characters
the characters that i have met so far is Mo,Dale,miss.Rose,Jesse,miss.Lana are so far the only the characters.
the first chapter,
the first chapter was just a intro to the characters.
chapter 2 for-site,
i think that this chapter the mistery began so at the first page of the book it said that Mr,Jesse  is dead but in the first chapter he seemed alive so he must die in chapter 2 or 3
the main character is ....
mo and i think mo is a girl because he/she blushes a lot when a  a male talks to he/she except Dale she/he didn't blush with him or she/he did but i forgot and if i seem stupid for not knowing the main character gender someone may be think it say it in the first chapter but i don't remember if it did sorry for going doing a inter paragraph over the main characters gender.

The Selection Text to Text Blog 2

The Selection by Kiera Cass is a book about a girl named America Singer. She goes through a lot of emotions in the book and also goes through a lot of hard times. America gets persuaded to enter her name into a drawing. The drawing randomly picks thirty-five girls that get to live at the palace until the prince selects one of them to be his wife. America gets chosen and has ups and downs throughout her whole visit at the palace.

I can relate this book to a different book I read called Red Queen. The main characters are both forced to go to a place that is completely unfamiliar to them. They have such a hard time adjusting and get very homesick. America and the main character of Red Queen, Mare, always feel like they don't fit in. They face many problems and bumps along the way, but end up having a great experience.

In this book, I loved it when America shows emotions and feelings because it makes it seem like you are really there when you read the book. Whenever America felt sad or depressed, it started to make me feel sad. If something really amazing happened to America, I would feel very happy and excited. At certain points of the book, I felt like I could predict what would happen next. When I kept reading, the plot turned out to be completely different from what I expected. That is one of the reasons why I love this book series. It is so unpredictable and exciting, and I never know what's going to happen next.

Things that go bump In the night text to text

   The scene remind me of the movie goosebumps because it talked about what the monsters do and how they existed it is similar to things that go bump in the night because they both have monsters and they each have the same character that try to stop the monsters and they ended up stopping them and they are both in the some situation.
      The character is like my 10 year old cousin in things that go bump in the night because he believes in clown wondering in the woods and he thinks that they are coming for him and it was actually fake all he wanted was attention and now when something bad actually happen they wont believe him because they think that he is lying.
      This situation reminds me of a similar situation in my own life.It happened when my brother dressed up as a clown and i got scared and i ran and later then i found out it was my brother and i got mad because i was scared by him and in the book "Thing That Go Bump In The Night" they get chased by a beast .
