A Summer to Die (Guided Reading)

There was a girl and her name was Meg and she had a sister named Molly. Meg always thought Molly was so gorgeous and popular. They had to share a room in the new house. They were moving in the country so that their dad good have a quiet place to finish typing his book. Molly and Meg fought a lot so Molly in the new room drew a white line in the middle of the room. It was with chalk by the way.  Molly was really mad about moving because she has to give up her new cheer leading job and her friends.  One day Meg was walking down the street and saw a guy fixing his truck and he said Miss Chalmers. I was shocked because she didn't know anybody around here. He started talking and then he said come on in and have a cup of tea. When Molly was at Will's he said I used to live in the house you live in. He said the small room where your dad works I carved my name in to that floor. Then that is how they became friends. Molly had a boyfriend and they would always call and talk to each other. His name was Tierney. Molly and Tierney would be mad because he lived in town and we lived in the country. I have another blog so check in soon!

The Old Willis Place Added Part

If you want to read the whole book then don't read this! If I was the author then this is the last part I would put. They go back to the cemetery and then Diana misses Lissa and she asks if she can go back to the farm. Miss Willis says yes because she wants to see her house again. When they get there Lissa sees Diana and says that she's moving and they are packing their things right now. She said her dad got a better job and are moving to one of those nice houses across the highway. She says you can visit me anytime and from then on Diana and Georgie went to her house a lot.  They played mostly everyday from then on! Well I got to go!!

The Old Willis Place (Guided Reading)

Hi! I have started a new book for guided reading and it is called The Old Willis Place. It is about 2 kids and they are homeless and they live in the woods behind this old mansion called The Old Willis Place. I am only on the second chapter but they gave a lot of information. There is usually a house keeper for the house and when there is one living there the house keeper lives in a trailer. This new housekeeper moves in and he has a daughter. One of the homeless kids is a girl (and she is the oldest) and a boy. The girls name is Diana and the boy's name is Georgie. The girl wants to be friends with Lissa the house keeper's daughter. But they have rules to follow and one of those rules are they can't have friends except each other.
