I am reading the book Eggs, by Jerry Spinelli. Eggs is about a 9 year old by, David-who's mother died in a wet floor accident and his father only get's to see him on weekend's, since he owns a shopping mall in Connecticut, and Primrose-a 13 year old girl with a silly "psychic" mother, and a lost father, whom which David's grandmother thinks is Clark Gable. David and Primrose get in all sorts of mischief in the town of Perkiomen. A time they caused trouble is when Primrose got David to go to an event, the Midsummer Night's Scream, as Primrose as David's mom. David eventually snaps, and tears off Primrose's wig. He then runs home. Another time is when David's grandmother (whom he hates) takes him to an Easter Egg hunt, to "make friends". When he find's an egg, he moves the leaves, and finds a (he thought) dead body. He then finds out later in the story that the dead body was actually Primrose, being goofy. That is my summary of the book Eggs. (so far)

The book I just read was called, "Closed For The Season." By: mary Downing HahnIf the Magic Forest was scary in the daylight, it was truly terrifying in the dark. All around us kudzu lifted and fell in the breeze, sighing as if it were a living, breathing creatuer, a shape changer. Now it was a monster, now an ogre, now a long-armed witch, always menacing, never benign, never still. shodows shifted, darkened, lightened, gerw, shrank. leaves murmured like ghosts, whispering to each other of death and decay.
Thanks to a full moon and a cloudless sky, we could see as well as if it were daytime. Which meant, of course, that we could also be seen. Our shadows were dark and sharp on the pavement.
