The Great and Terrible Quest


This book is about a boy and a wounded man. The man is a very important man but forgets it. He has forgotten everything. So the boy finds him and thinks that he is just a beggar. He takes him to his grandfather's house and hides him in a secret place, because if his grandfather knew that an old beggar was in his house, he would beat the boy till he bled. His grandfather was wicked and the boy hated him.

I recommend this book for all ages. It's a very entertaining book and it keeps you wondering the whole time. Hope you enjoy it!

Lion

(The assignment was to write a poem with rhyme, rhythm, repetition, refrain and alliteration.)

In the day roaring
In the night snoring
Doing what he will
With his great skill
Doing what he may
Watching for his prey
Makes the strike
Then takes a bite
A sneaky cat
A creepy cat
In the day roaring
In the night snoring
