Book of the Week

I guess I should call it something else. In the comments, write a new name for the Book of the Week thing. I don't do it weekly anymore...

The Thief Lord
By: Cornelia Funke
Young Prosper and his little brother Bo's parents died, and their aunt will only take in Bo. The two run away to Venice, the magical place their late mother had told them about. The elusive and mysterious Thief Lord takes them under his wing. But when the thief takes up a offer to steal something of seemingly no value, things take a unexpected turn.

Read this book and you'll want to go to Venice(I know I do)!

A Fun Auction(Sort of)

Well, I guess you could call it an auction. PVCS Country Fair And Auction. I only went to the fair part though. It was a school fundraiser. I don't know what your idea of "fundraiser" is, but this was probably cooler than what you're imagining. There was a helicopter. Yeah, thats right. There was a helicopter dropping free candy on the 1/4 mile track and field. It was AWESOME! It was kinda disappointing, though, that there were only 3 different kinds of candies. Also, I missed the horse rides... Anyway, there were tons of games, and Moon Bounces! I almost dunked the principal of the middle school(I will get 
you next year, Mr. Shraug!((I hope I spelled that correct.)))

I really liked it.
In the comments, write about a fun experience(maybe my school friends will talk about the auction?).
