The Perfect Christmas I go over to my grandmothers house, lit decorations, great food. Games for us as a family to play, laughter, no argueing. Smelling the freshly baked cookies, cake, banana pudding. Watching the football/basketball game. And when it’s time for opening presents by the lit Christmas tree. Me getting lots of presents and games for Christmas, also money as a bonus. The smiles on everyone’s faces when they open up their presents. After presents we go around gloating about what we got and them getting jealous. At the end of it all, going to visit my mom for Christmas break and also getting presents over there, lots of fun and laughter over there too. And my mom is a great cook too, so i’d want some of her Christmas dinner. Then after I eat i’d get to play all the games I got for Christmas with my brother and my sister, more laughter.

This book I read it’s called Quest for the Golden Apple. It starts out with a character named Phoenix. Phoenix is a miner, she lives with a whole lot villagers and she doesn’t know that she’s a miner. One day she goes out to explore the outside world. She is forbidden from going outside of the village because there are dangerous things out there. She and her villager brother go outside the border, and something happens to her brother. Which takes Phoenix out to the quest of a golden apple. It’s a long journey home. And on the way she finds a wolf that she has tamed to help her on this journey. My favorite part of this book towards the end is when her and her friends fight this witch, it was interesting. I advise the readers to read this book, if you play minecraft —I don’t but I used to— you’d like this book. It’s also a graphic novel so it’s easy to read.

I grew up in a single-parent home with five siblings [in a] drug-infested community”. This relates to The Outsiders because, Johnny gave back to be apart of tomorrow. He risked his life in a burning church, to save children. He was a brave hero, and the the man gave back by also saving lives as a doctor, and his mother’s words of the wiser set him up for life to help his community.     “Through my mother’s way of handling life, she always made sure that I understood the need to give back.... She always said, ‘Once you make it, you have to come back and help other people.’ Too often, in Newark especially, I see so many professionals that do make it out — they don’t return. And I think that’s a crime in itself.... You have to have some social consciousness to
