Book Anaylisis

Author's Note: I read the book "The Tail of Two Pretties" by Lisi Harrison and here are some life lessons that are in this book.


I think you should really read the book “The Tail of Two Pretties” by Lisi Harrison. I think you should read this book because this book has really good life lessons in it. A lot of parents are telling their daughters to read the Clique series because it has  good life lessons in it. I think you should read it too to get more knowledge about what to do when you don’t know what to do. Life lessons can always tell you what to do.

One of the life lessons in “The Tail of Two Pretties”  is to not judge a book by it’s cover. That means to not judge something by what it looks like. For example you can’t judge someone by look like you have to get to know them before you actually like them. If you judge a person by what they look like you might not ever be able to get to know them and they might be really nice but you wouldn’t know that because you judged them by what they look like.

Another life lesson that’s in this book is to treat people like you want to be treated. That means that if you want people to be nice to you, you should be nice to them. Massie one of the main characters is really mean to Claire in the beginning of the series but then in “Best Friends for Never” there best friends. So if Massie didn’t treat her like she wanted to be treated they would have never been friends.
The last life lesson in this book is to always be yourself. If Claire wasn’t herself when in the first book of the series when she moved from Florida her and Massie wouldn’t be friends. When Claire first moved to Westchester she wore overalls. Massie didn’t like here at first because she didn’t look like here but when she got to know her she realized she really liked her. Claire did start to change when she was  friends with Massie and Massie’s other friends.

So just remember to always remember to follow life lessons. If you always follow life lessons you’re doing what your supposed to do. So I really encourage you to follow life lessons and to  read this book.

Am I Proud of my Country?

Author's Note: Yes of course I'm proud of my country here are a few reasons why.





 Yes, I’m very proud of my country. Here are some reasons why I’m proud of my
country.

 I’m proud of my country because we’re a very independent country and we’ve worked
so hard to make our country free. Unlike some other countries such as Cuba we have a
right to move out of our country and move to another country. We’ve worked hard to
make our country free by going into war to make our country free. If a bunch of people
that went to war didn’t go into war we might not be the country that we are today. I’m
very proud of the people that went into the war because they’re the reason why are
country is free they went into war and risked our lives so that we could have
independence. For doing that they make me proud to live in America.

 I’m also proud of my country because when we have problems with each other we try
to figure out a way to fix it. For example the Civil War. The Civil War was a battle about
slavery. The north thought it was a good idea to have slavery and the south thought it
was a bad idea to have slavery. All the people that were in the war risked their lives so
the slaves could have freedom. When the war finally ended hundreds of people died but
they did what they wanted to do they fought for their rights. When the war was all over
the south won and all the slaves were free again. That is another reason why I’m proud
of my country.

 Another reason why I’m proud of my country is we’re not afraid to risk our lives for other people. For example the war in Iraq all the people that are in that war aren’t afraid to risk their lives for other people. All those people that are in that war in any other wars aren’t afraid to die for freedom for us. They are all brave people that want to risk their lives for the safety of others. They chose to do that; that’s want they want to do and that’s another reason why I’m proud of my country.
 Those are just a couple reasons why I’m proud of my country and there are many more reasons. I’m proud to be an American and I hope you are proud to be an American too.
