I finished reading the first book in the series of the Isle Of The Lost, where all of the Disney princes and princesses live in the U.S.A, the United States of Auradon but all of the villains and their sidekicks were banished to the Isle Of The Lost. The book’s main characters are Mal the daughter of Maleficent, Evie, the daughter of the Evil Queen, Jay, the son of Jafar, and Carlos, the son of Cruella De Vil. In the first book : The Isle Of The Lost, Mal, Evie Carlos and Jay are not friends at all and not friendly towards each other at all, villains don’t act kind and nice like that. Or do they…

I am reading a book called The Wide Awake Princess by E.D. baker which is about Sleeping beauty but if she has a sister who can’t be affected by magic and is awake while everyone else is sleeping, What would she do? She will go through all of the different fairy tale lands to find a prince that can kiss her sister awake.

Today I have a fun way for you to write your own stories, if you want. It’s called Storybird.

This is the link: https://storybird.com/

On this website you can create two types of books that you can later upload. These types are: a picture book and a longform book. Now the cool thing is you create a story based on a piece of art in the gallery of Storybird. When you are done with your story you can choose to publish it to the world or to friends only. You can also upload your own art works to inspire others for a story. In Storybird there are monthly challenges for you to complete. These include: create a picture book about….

Write a longform book in…. amount of time

And other amazing challenges that you can win.

I started reading a book called The Wollstonecraft Detective Agency, it’s about two girls called Mary and Ada. Now this story is Historical fiction so Mary and Ada actually existed, they were some of the smartest women on the planet, one of them was a computer scientist and the other an author which inspired the writer ( Jordan Stratford ) to write this book. Now Ada and Mary are very good friends and want to start a detective agency however they are girls, now this shouldn’t be a problem right? Well it is! They are not allowed to be detectives, but they don’t care, they start a secret detective agency! In this agency they solve mysteries and this one is the case of the missing Moonstone.

I really like the Swedish series about a boy called Jack: Jakten på Jack, Spådomen om Jack and Jacks förbannelse. In this series there’s a boy called Jack who can do magic and spells, there’s also his best friend Rurik who is a dwarf. Another one of the main characters is Jack’s aunt whose name is Betty. Now because of Jack’s magical ability loads of weird things start to happen and all books are about a different one of Jack’s adventures. I only read two of the three BIG books all of these include four smaller books that can be read separately as well. These books in the picture are all separate books in Jakten på Jack. ( The first one in this series. )

I have not been posting a lot of new things on my blog, but from now on I will be trying to keep you updated on what I am reading whenever I have time starting from now.

I already finished this book because it was so good but that’s why I wanted to share this with you. The book is called The Phantom Tollbooth and it’s about a boy named Milo who is extremely bored. When he’s outside he wants to be inside but then when he is inside he longs to be out again. This is until a strange package arrives at his door…

It was a toy tollbooth with a mini car that Milo could luckily still fit inside, Milo took with him two coins ( one for when he comes back ) and when he goes through the tollbooth he discovers a magical world with very strange people who Milo becomes friends with like: the humbug, the spelling bee, King Azaz, the Mathematician, a guy called Canbe and of course Princesses Rhyme and Reason. In this world there’s a problem and so Milo and his new friends are going to try to help everyone in this magical new world.

I really recommend this book written by Norton Juster. A special thanks to my dad for recommending this book to me and showing me this amazing world to read about.

Sorry that I didn’t write much on my blog during the holiday! That’s because I read so many books I want to tell you about.

The last book that I read was The Mystery of the Disappearing Cat. It is part of a series of books by Enid Blyton and it’s about a group of children. The first one is Margret, who everyone calls Daisy. Her brother’s name is Laurence but everyone calls him Larry. He is the leader of the Five Find-Outers (and Dog) which their friends Philip, who everyone calls Pip, and his little sister Elizabeth, called Bets by the other children, are also a part of. Lastly there is also Frederic, who most people call Fatty, and together with his little dog Buster they are the Five Find-Outers (and Dog). (OMG all those names!) They solve mysteries in the little town where they live called Petersburg. But the town policeman Mr. Goon is not at all friendly so it’s always a race for who can solve the mystery first. This particular mystery is a hard case to crack: Pip and Bets’s neighbour Lady Candling has a new gardener. Then her best Siamese cat disappears... twice!

It’s a really good book and I definitely recommend it to all of you! Just like the other books in the series this book is awesome.

As you know I read a lot of stories about Katie, the ordinary witch. One of the most recent ones was Katie and the Unicorn. In that story Katie and her best friend Isis are taking care of a unicorn which they named Cupid. They have to watch out because they don’t want that what happened to his father will happen to Cupid... His dad was stolen and sold at the black magic market. But when they leave Cupid out of their sight, who knows what will happen to him...

I am recently reading books online on a website that is called Story Nory. I like it because you can listen to stories and read them at the same time. My favorite series of books there are the books about Katie, the ordinary witch. Last time I read Katie and the Christmas chimney. It is about Isis, Katie’s best friend, who gets invited to a Christmas party from Samantha who has gone through a lot of pain in her childhood because her mom said that Santa was not coming because he got stuck in a chimney. So Isis wants Santa to come to the party. But when Katie pretends to be Santa and gets stuck in the chimney will it turn out like a good party or will it become a Christmas disaster...

Read Katie and the Christmas chimney on Story Nory and you will find out.

Things I learned when I started

If you want to make a blog (some of you might know already) I am happy to help you! So here are some things that might be useful.

Before you start, make sure to do this: choose a name for your blog, together with a topic (make sure you have a lot to say about the topic because you will make your blog all about that topic).

When you have done that, you should think about the style you would like your blog to have. Is it photos only? Long think pieces? Short status updates? Once you’ve done that, you can find a suitable service or domain for your blog-to-be. I chose Tumblr. It’s fun and simple to use, easy to discover and explore, and my words remain my own (Tumblr does not claim copyright on things you post).

Then you’ll want to make sure that people read your blog, so advertise it!

Write and publish your first post. Make sure to first write it somewhere else (like in a text editor) so you can just copy and paste the text in, because if you don’t and compose directly in a browser window or CMS, you might lose everything you wrote when something goes wrong with the WiFi or something like that.

Then choose how often you want to post something on your blog.

Now you have your own blog! But of course: try to make sure to spend enough time on it, and... that’s all!

Since I like books so much I started writing my own. It’s about a girl called Jasmine who hears someone scream in the middle of the night. The next day her parents are very weird. She finds out that they have been bitten by a vampire: first they only wear capes, then they are awake at night, after that they become pale and get long teeth. Jasmine finds a book in the forbidden part of the library where it says how to save someone who has been bitten by a vampire: she will have to make a potion with very unusual things like blood, a spider and its web, a rat, a vampire’s tooth and a lot of other weird stuff. But will she get her mom and dad to drink it and will she get all the items or will she become a vampire herself? I am the only one who knows...

Now I would like to share my thoughts about a book that I am reading. It is a Halloween story and it is called Katie’s Halloween Dad. Katie is a girl who has magical powers with which she can do anything she wants. She got the magical powers from her mom who also has powers. But her dad does not do any magic and he thinks it is very unfair. So when he gets into trouble he asks his (ex-)wife for help. She refuses. He believes that non-magical people can train themselves to do magic. He is a professor and has done a lot of experiments on it. So now he tries to get magic himself...

I really like the book because I think it is very exciting and I would definitely recommend it to all of you.

Hello

Hi everyone, my name is Lotte...

... and this blog is about books that I love. But first I would like to tell you how I came up with the idea of making a blog. I started during Genius Hour. You’re probably wondering: what is Genius Hour? Well here is your answer! Genius Hour is an hour every week that gives time to children to find their inner genius. All the kids in my class can do anything they want as long as it includes research. And the rule is only to research something that you are interested in. I was very interested in blogs and how to make them and that’s why I made this blog!
