Letters Home

Dear Mom and Dad,
  It is fun at Camp Green Lake you get to go swimming and you can mess around with each other. We get to hang glide or bungee jump of a cliff and I made a lot of new friends. We get to drink a lots of pop and water and get to do paintball wars. Our guidance counselor lets us wear anything so I'm wearing my Los Angeles Lakers jersey.

                  Love Jake.     

Dear Mom and Dad,
  It is not fun here we have to dig holes all day with no water or food. We only get water when the truck gets here. There is no water around here where we are digging. Mr Sir told me I am not in girl scouts anymore. The bus drive was bad because I was handcuffed to the seat. There is no bathroom so we have to go in a hole. We get cool nicknames like the Rattlesnake man. I have to get up early in the morning to get dressed and eat breakfast. If you get bitten by a Rattlesnake you will be in the hospital and if you get bitten by a yellow spotted lizard you will die.

Write Me Back

Love Jake.

When I Grow up

When I grow up I want to be a truck driver for Farner-Bocken.  I would get to travel around the world. I can call for back up if I’m having trouble. I could see my family a little bit maybe on weekends. I can take a vacation day sometimes. That is  why I would like to be a truck driver.

I also would like to be a professional basketball player. I would be alley-oping it to everyone that is on my team. I could try to be on the Los Angeles Lakers. I would be shooting some threes and draining some. I would be blocking the other teams shoots. Then when I steal the passes I would slam dunk it and hang onto the hoop. That is why I want to do this.

Finally I would like to be a teacher. I could do fun stuff with the students. I could help them if they get stuck on something. I also like kids when they get on my good side. I can make them get smarter by doing long division. This is why I want to be a teacher.

Chapter 27

 I and Winn-Dixie went to the library to see Miss Franny block the next day but when we got there that bear was there again looking at me. Winn-Dixie started to fight the bear! The bear had a lot of scratches on his back. Winn-Dixie got cut by the bears claw so Winn-Dixie limped to me and whimpered.
Miss Franny said thank you for saving my library. After that me and Winn-Dixie went to Gloria's house but we ran into the Dewberry boys again and I said do you want to come to Gloria's house with me and you know what they said sure I don't believe she is a witch all because of that silly roomer that has been been going on.
Dunlap said what happened to Winn-Dixie. I said he got into a fight with a bear. Stevie said no that is impossible Winn-Dixie would have died. Finally when I got home at night my mom was in the house saying where is my baby girl I want to see because I haven't seen her since she was a baby.
I ran to my mom and then the Preacher came in and said why did you come back. My mom said because I miss you guys so much but I missed Opal the most. Opal asked her mom why did you leave when I was just a baby her mom said the Preacher said I should leave just for a day because I drank.

I said you have been gone for ten years why. She said I had to have a break from your father because he made me mad at that point. Then at night I heard them get in a fight again but this time my dad left us behind.

Candy Factory

Shockes it tastes like Pineapple and Root beer and it tastes happy and sad at the same time.
Fitters it taste like lemonade and happiness  at the same time so you will be happy and have lemonade.
Munch it taste like nuts and chocolate and sadness at the same time they made it in the 1955s when a boy died and his family made them with sadness.
Bashes it taste like apples and they taste like happiness because a family was in danger by slavery but there son told the people to let my family go and let all of us go and it was made in 1871.
