A Joke

POEM

“Colors of Me” By: Sumanjit#13

Soft pink like a cherry blossom,

I am shy.

Neon green like the lights in Paris,

I am always crafty.

Black as a twilight night,

I am serious.

Red like a blooming rose,

I always am artsy.

Peach like the juicy fruit,

I am very hopeful.

Hot pink like the juicy watermelons,

I am happy.

Light blue like a blue jay,

I am simple.

Yellow as a sour lemon,

I am talkative.

Lavender like the beautiful lilac,

I am quiet.

Gold like a first place medal,

I am sarcastic.

A book!

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian- by C.S.Lewis- 223 pages(x2)

              Disappearing from the railway station, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy, arrived in the unknown world of Narnia. The book, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, by C.S. Lewis, is about a young prince named Caspian, whose uncle, King Miraz, does not let Caspian believe in Aslan and "Old Narnia," nor does he want Caspian to have his throne. The four Pevensies were whisked away to Narnia, by Caspian's call for help on Queen Susan's magic horn. A dwarf told the four how, and why, they were brought to Narnia. So, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy journeyed to Caspian on the battlefield and along the way, the Pevensies picked up Aslan, who helped the four, and Caspian, drive away evil Miraz. Finally, they were able to give Caspian his rightful throne. Caspian is a very brave and secretive prince. I loved the movie as much as I did the book!
