The blogs I read.

Sumaiya and Zack both put a lot of effort into their blog pieces. Their blogs helped me learn new writing techniques. They helped me think about what I should write next time and how I should write it. They both did a really good job, and put a lot of thought into what they wrote. I enjoyed reading their pieces because besides help with writing techniques, they help me get ideas about new books to read.

The girl That fell from the sky.

The Girl Who Fell From The Sky, is a book about a girl that is living with her grandmother after her mother dies. Her grandmother lives in an African American dominated neighborhood. Rachel has a African American dad and a white mom. She is faced with daily problems such as being a mixed race, and being the new girl. They are slowly telling you about her old life, and you are learning more about her past as the book goes on.

My favorite part of the book so far was when she told the readers about how her mother died. The way the author wrote it was really cool. She was narrating the boys life, and almost giving you an inside look on his life and his reaction when he saw the dead family. I think her writing technique was unique and creative. I would like to try this technique in one of my next writing pieces.
