While i am gliding my reading journey through the finale of Harry Potter,i have came up of another theory. My new theory is How is Hogwarts school of witchcraft and whizardry relevant and different to ms51?. My first guess for children to say that it's different because we can't apparate into the building or fly in through magical brooms. This school is very unique and alot to show and offer, starting now.
Hogwarts is similar to ms51 because of education and friendship. It's relevant due to education because we all learn different things that might suprise us in our everyday life but we all find it useful and who knows? It might save you from death killing people such as Snape and Dementors. It's relevant due to friendship because just like in all schools, we all have to make friends or so called "Peers". They will help you on through your daily lives and so will teachers of course, but the "Peers" can connect more since they make be in the same range of age. Its also relevant due to friendship because of frivolous problems that might occur.
School is very important for you, since it guides you to the next step into your life such as your 1rst job/career. Jobs in this story end up for a group of people to muster and end up not having what they want. Instead, they end up getting what they deserved/earned. You wouldnt want to be the person to have something they don't like to do? No! you would want to have something you enjoy doing.

Book blog #8- Harry Potter and the deathly hallows
Why does J.K.Rowling chose Harry,Ron, and Hermoine as the teenagers to represent the social life of Hogwarts school of witchcraft and whizardy?. I know i may have been doing other blogs on this book but its because i don't want to rush my journey through the finale of Harry Potter.Anyways, these threee teenagers each have a gift in their own special way that J.K.Rowling put them as the main characters of this novel.
Hermoine's gift was definitely her knowledge. She is a sweet,brilliant,charming girl who knows so many unique spells that Harry might not even know. She used a spell for her parents to not remember her and she was forgotten,so she can go with Harry and Ron. Not only did she use this spell for various reasons,but she uses theses speels outside of class time,just like any other type of student except she uses it with her ability to control it and let it be free.
Ron's gift was definitely his humor. Countless times he would make character in this book laugh and giggle so many times that they may have even started to cry. Ron also has another gift which is hospitatility. I feel that no matter what times it may be Ron will welcome anybody that has a heart into their house and care for them as if they were related. Ron has a heart that makes his light shine for a main character role.
Last but not least, Harry's gift was not his scar but it was his theories that he created from little facts and he kind of became a detective to solve these theories and he did that for every book in the series. I think that's really creative unique, for J.K.Rowling to do that with a character. Sometimes everybody wishes they can have that time to shine,just like Harry got to.

Book blog #7-Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
Reading this book is really interesting,more interesting than when i put this book down for a while and read a different book.Harry Potter is no book you can pick up and put down. You might have to stick to it in your whole reading life.
As i was watching the movie, i began to develop a theory in my head. My theory is "Is snape a two faced person?". I began this theory because i was watching Harry Potter and the goblet of fire yesterday and saw
that Snape had protected Harry with his wand while Dumbledore was helping Harry out. Harry was being attacked by Mad-eye moody but turned out to be the old ministers son. The polyjuice potion expired on him right at the moment he was caught. In Harry Potter and the Half-blood prince, Snape had maimed Dumbledore with a killing charm and killed Dumbledore. That to me makes Snape a two faced person. He is also very malicious.
As i read more of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, i also thought up of another theory. Ever since Dumbledore had passed away things have gotten horribly wrong at Hogwarts. So far into the book, there is no headmaster and i can connect to Harry and the students of Hogwarts. For Harry's connection, I had someone very close to me pass away and i can never get over the fact that this person is dead. It pains my heart to see that someone who cares other than himself like Dumbledore died when a person who is two faced and has no manners like Snape still be alive and wasting a life that some other good person may have.
For the students at Hogwarts, i can connect to them because my former principal Mr. Mateo had retired and he was such a great principal because not only was he a principal but he was a fatherly figure to the students of my old school (P.S.39)who helped these kids and cared for them as if they were his own children. Until my 4th grade year,Mr. Mateo retired and we had a new principal named Ms.depaz. She was ok in my perspective but i couldnt feel that vibe between us. The vibe that she couldnt be my new motherly figure, my astonishing new leader.

Book blog #6- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
People all over the United states would want to fly on a broom or transport things to their hands when they are too lazy or even destory people they don't like. Well now I take you on a mythical journey through Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows By J.K.Rowling. It tells a story about a young orphan who soon discovers that he becomes a whizard and goes through problems. These problems involve a lot of help with more than just money or a phone call away.
I can connect to Harry Potter because I used to be a confused boy with glasses and a scar on my face since I poped my pimples. I did have parents though and became friends with people that I can connect to very easily.Even though this is the last book of the series, it still can show moments from the first book but just won't admit it to the readers.
Some of the characters in these books are freaks such as strange strangers,but these freaks aren't the usual freaks that will just maim you and go away. No! these people take maiming to a whole different level. People have always shouted out curses to each other and say vile things such as "karma is going to get you", and sometimes they come true but in this book all the curses come true with just a speck of muscle movement to make a simple wand to make your hatred come true.
A memory I had that was similar to this book was when I went to Staten island to go visit my friend and my friend ended up taking me all the way to the other side of Staten island to go to the Dunkin donuts at ,9:00 pm. While we were running across the street a bus passed by us and inside the bus looked a little similar to the bus that was the night bus in Harry Potter. I migh have been hallucinating but in my perspective it looked similar inside.So now I leave you the reader thinking about my response and how it will take you on a mythical journey as it had taken me on one.

Book blog#5-Diary of a wimpy kid The Ugly Truth- A way of comic life
Brothers,sisters,and parents are always a pain in the butt but for this character, his pain goes onto a whole new different level that nobody can imagine.Diary of a wimpy kid- The ugly truth tells a story about a boy named Greg Heffley who lives a life of a teenager who has so many advantages ahaead of him.
I remember when i was always begging my parents for me to go to parties late at night or overnight trips, but they wouldn't let me until i was a teenager. The "Lock in Party" is a great example to show you from this book. Greg went to a school overnight sleepover that happened in the auditorium with teachers and got the chill of his sleeping that I couldn't eithen get.
I can totally connect to Greg because i have an annoying sibling who would do bad things to me so i would want to get revenge so i did. What greg did was sort of funny. He changed something that wasnt supposed to be changed but sadley, it didn't come true. What misfortunate luck!
All of our relatives may do stupid things but we all still love them right? Greg's uncle, uncle gary is remarrying for the 4th time. He's not so grown up yet and has a lame job. Gary supposedly said the biggest,stupidest thing he can ever do to destory his 3rd marriage. "Hey! just wait until we are back here for the 5th wedding".
I might have a complicated situation in my life,Just like Greg might have. If you were a teenager would you want to go to the biggest party of the year or go to you're uncle's wedding. Well most people would pick the wrong decision but i would pick the right one :).

book blog #4
Have you ever heard of women being sexually trafficed?well now you know. I have been currently reading a book called Sold by Patricia Mccormick. It tells a story about a girl named Laksmhi and her stepfather selling her away. Lakshmi gets a suprise far from great and was unfortunately sent to do prostitution. She was raped and was crying as if her predator had alreay caught up to her and took his vile bite into her most wealthiest part ever.
This book leaves me to questions like why is there still "sex slavery" shouldn't it be banned? well you most definitely have my answer for yes it should be banned. Women shouldn't be violated, they should be treated with respect just like we men are and most of the times, bad men like to take advantages of women'sbody and violate them. After that women than get something horribly ill, something that's not eithen worth to die for.... sexually transmitted dieases (STD).
Thankfully in this book, Laksmhi discovers a safe house with other girls who have been mollested and meets new friends and gets to have a bond with these new girls in the house. Hey! Laksmhi can make a connection towards these girls. Maybe she can have her own book inside Sold. Just maybe.
Hopefully Laksmhi can get better and have a brand new start. It's just so horrible because i can make a connection towards her because a part in the book said that her friend got kicked out because she was ill and i have had a friend that went away because she was ill so sometimes i feel like im in that house with Laksmhi. Just maybe i might be.

Book blog #3- The runaway dolls
Did you ever know that small people can do big things in 1 day? well i know because i haave read The runaway dolls by Martin Godwin. This book took me on such an adventure through mythical and actual imaginations/adventures. The characters.. excuse me the dolls in this book were very daring and must always have some sort of adventure or quest with it.
I really liked the book because it brought back so many good memories and it was also worth reading. It brought me back to the memory of when I and my sister would always hide around the house so our parents couldn't find us if we were in trouble but unfortunately they were always more clever than us and found us hiding in the best hiding spot we can ever find... the top stairs railing.
This novel was really worth reading, no matter what age you are because it will always make you feel like a little kid again and bring you back to your're hide and seek adventures or anything else similar that you enjoyed playing when you were younger. You might not eithen want to stop reading this book it keeps getting better and better. SPOILER ALERT! CONTINUE READING IF YOU MUST BUT IF YOU DONT WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS PLEASE STOP PROCEEDING!
Alot of tension had happened in this book with the dolls because their was a moment when the dolls almost got sod by a woman to the wrong house and meet there evil minion Mimi, the evil fairy princess doll.
These adventures always had tension and i had relatable moments like that considering that i broke my wrist and while i was running before i fell on the ground, i started to weep, knowing that my predator hunted me down, tackled me to the floor, and than won his beloved trophy..my little wrist.

Book blog #2
A book i was previously reading was Charlotte's Web , by E.B.White. This book is really enjoyable and really sad. It's enjoyable because there's alot of funny and thrilling parts in this book but however it's really sad because a tradgety happens to one of the characters in this book.
A character from Charlotte's web that i can mostly connect to is probably Fern because she has an annoying sibling just like me, loves Wibur who is an animal and i like animals,and also that has a heart for other things other than her self sometimes just like me.
This book was also connecting me to my early childhood days because i remember me and my friends would reannact this book and give parts to each other and say the lines the actual characters said in the book. I was Avery in the reannactment. For some reason, Avery is like a rude obnoxious brother to Fern but My friends always told me to be Avery because I can always act like him the best eithen though i knew that wasn't true but i still went with the flow.
My emotions towards the beginning of the book was wow, my feelings have changed ever since i have read this book in the 3rd grade and rereading this book in the 8th grade was different because it didnt make me jump up and down in my seath. Although, I will never stop loving this book because it brought back so many good memories and times. If you want to find out a little more what happens continue reading but otherwise stop right here!
Finally, The ending was really sad to me because i was heartbroken to find out who died because that one person who had helped another character through so much and it was heart breaking to see he or she pass away.From 8 years-13 years of being in my reading life this tradety was probably the saddest i have ever read.

book blog #1
My book that i have finished reading is Bridge to Terabethia. This book is an amazing book that may have a conection to anyone because the story revovles around friendship and imagination. For me, i can connect to this book because jesse has 4 annoying sisters but i have 1 sister and shes is very annoying. Anyone can conect to friendship because everybody has friends and that everyone can connect to imagination because some time in our lives we have had a huge imagination that has wanted to come out to life (the real world).
I had alot of great experiences reading this book and it made me feel like how come i can't have the woods in my backyard and be swinging on a rope to my so called imaginary land? I sometimes had dreams of me swinging on the rope with my best friends and being the rulers of terbetthia through the power of friendship and imagination but most importantly trust.
Something horrific that I would not want to happen is the rope breaking but unfortunately that had happened to leslie and she died. Now i sometimes question to myself anfd to my book club members Why did she have to die?why? What if that happens to me? hopefully not.One suggestion is thaat if i was in the book and i was the main character i would have built a bridge because it would have been surdier and that i didnt have to worry about me or my friends falling into the creek and smashing their heads on the rocks.
My emotions were really mixed after the death scene happened because i could have connected to anybody in the book because its realy sad and terrifying that a close friend of yours can die right on you when you might need them the most. My grandmother died of breast cancer and i know that she's not a friend but it really hit me when she did die and it took me some time to calm down bbut the truth is you'll never calm down and you never get over their death.
