Guest blogger is Jennifer Lynne will share her review of Misty of Chincoteague by Marguerite Henry.
What the Story was about: A horse called Phantom and two kids, Paul and Maureen who lived with their grandparents. Also, Phantom's colt, Misty.
What I thought about the story: I thought it was interesting. You can learn a lot from it. You can learn how to care for horses. The kids in the story worked really hard. Once you read the first chapter you can't stop reading.
We bought the movie for my birthday party. It was good. The book was better than the movie.
I also read the other three books in the series. I love books about horses.
Guest blogger, Jonathan Cole will share his review of Night of the Cossack by Tom Blubaugh.
What the story was about: An interesting fictional account of a young boy facing a series of tough life-or-death decisions when forced into a life of a Cossack soldier.
What I thought about the story: I thought it was a great story. There were many hardships in Nathan's life. I was intrigued by the choices that he had to make through the early years in his life. I was surprised by an important relationship in his life turning out to be false.
The best part about reading books my mom has read is getting to talk about the book with her. We both get excited about the things the characters go through and the choices they make.
That's our progress report for today. Thanks for stopping by.
