Got Food?
Hey Hey!!!
I just found out about these two sites!! They are awesome. For the first one, all you do is click daily, nothing else, and you donate a cup of food to a hungry child. For the second one, the site asks you questions for 10 grains of rice each if you get it right. It may not seem like much, but these children are on the edge of death from starvation. How they fund these sites is by loading ads which pay the site enough money to fund the food rations. So have a heart and play these games. No charge, they are all free (o:

The Little Prince By Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (click on his name for more info)
This book is widely known all over the world, for its important morals, and innocent charm. It starts with a abandoned aviator who finds himself with a young prince, who has come from his own planet. The pictures are really cute, and the moral possibly "Simplicity is best" makes it a stunning classic. The description and detail included, such as the vain flower make it funny and charmant (french for charming).

C'est un classique livre madamoiselle!!!

Harry Potter 6 Movie-
This movie came out in theaters a few weeks ago, and as ever, I was thrilled that it came out!!! It was a fast-paced, dark, slightly violent film. It didn't really follow the book, but it was still pretty amazing. The romance scenes were intense and hilarious . . . . Still laughing. The horcrux was really gorgeous, strangely, and the island it was located on was too. Great actors as always, and some really fascinating scares . . . The inferi are really out to get you!!!! (o;

Izzy, Willy-Nilly By Cynthia Voigt
Have you ever tried to spend a day without using one of your legs? Its probably pretty difficult, right? Well imagine having to spend the rest of your life like that?! Poor Izzy was stuck in a car accident and has to get her leg amputated. This book talks about her recovery and the changes she goes through with her friends, daily life, and her school. Her slight depression drives us through out the book feeling a slight pity for her. Great story!!!! Sad though

A Mango Shaped Space- By Wendy Mass
When you hear the telephone ring, do you see anything? Red zigzags? Brown rings? Is your "a" sunflower yellow? Mia is a teenager who is convinced that letters and numbers have colors, and she's right, for her, they do. Sometimes people's brains are wired a bit more, when this happens, its called synesthesia. This book talks about her daily life, and how seeing more, effects her. She learns to enhance her synesthesia in a way so powerful, that she can tell when someone is lying, or when they are enjoying something. This book is a great piece of realistic fiction, with beautiful details and lovely descriptions. Really enjoyable for teens ages (10- 15). Have fun!!!

Pink Panther 2-
It was an interesting and well thought-out mystery. Inspector Clouseau remains hilarious, yet Pink Panther 1 was much funnier. Now Jacques is joined by a group multi-cultural inspectors who may seem smarter, yet are easily fooled. Once again suspense rages in through the scenes and the new mysterious enemy seems to be well hidden. Amazing new actors decorate the film. Some points of the movie where slightly confusing and pointless. Yet, in the last scene made it definetly worth seeing.
