The Best Christmas Pagent Ever by Barbara Robinson


The problem is the Herdmans were the worst people ever!! Until the end. Imogene actually cried at the end! I can't believe it. She actually knew Jesus at the end. The wise man actually brought ham. Why didn't they bring gifts? Like gold, frankinscence, and myrrh!

There were more people of the Herdmans, not just Imogene. There were all kinds of people. The people were in the play. Imogene played Mary in the play.

If you look close there is an x on the worst. It turns out to be the best. I like Mary a lot. Well, Imogene.

And if you look at the book there is an angel who said "Shazam! The black night!" and she said "Hey! Unto you a child has been born!!!"

I got to go see the play! It was good. I liked where I sat because the Herdmans were like piling up in the aisle next to where I was sitting! I had to, like, move over. In the play there was cigar smoke, but not in real life. Whoosh! Good thing it wasn't in real life. That would be scary.

Betsy Tacy by Maud Hart Lovelace



Once we did this before. Anyway, they didn't be friends but then they turned up to be friends. The characters are Betsy, Tacy, the mom, and the dad, and the mom, and the dad of both of them. Betsy is like an ordinary girl. She has brown hair and she has little blue bows. Betsy is good at climbing trees. She is good at making friends. Tacy is just a girl that doesn't want to go school. It says in the book once they went to school and Tacy was crying. She put her head down. She keeped it down. When it was recess time she planned to run home, but Betsy went to go get her. And then they stopped in front of the candy store and they both cried together. But the chubby owner went out and she gave them free candy. (Someday I want to do that!) Then the chubby owner said "Go to school!" They walked and cried to school. Recess was done and they went in their school and they weren't sad anymore.

This happened on the planet earth maybe near England or near America. I don't know. It happened long ago. This is just a pretend story. A fake story. The Daddy drives a horse to work.
