My TED Like Talk

My TED Like Talk was some book recommendations. The books I had chosen to talk about were the Warriors series, the Wings of Fire series, I have a blog post about both of those series if you want to check it out, I also talked about Orphan Island, Front Desk, and the Lockwood & Co. series.

At the beginning of the project we watched some TED Talks and chose what we wanted to share. Then we researched about our topic and created a presentation. After we finished our presentation, we practiced then presented. After we presented, classmates would have some questions and compliments.

It was a fun experience and I liked presenting to the class.

 

The Last Cuentista and My Ideal World

Sora

The first book we read in language arts class was The Last Cuentista by Donna Barba Higuera. The book is about a girl named Petra Peña. What happens is that her, her family, and some other people have to leave Earth and go to a planet called Sagan and leave behind everyone else because Halley’s Comet is going to destroy the Earth. The ride to Sagan takes hundreds of years so all the passengers except the people that are taking care of them need to basically go to sleep for the whole ride. When they wake up, Petra is the only one who remembers Earth. She has to keep stories alive and save the people. To keep stories going, you have to tell them to other people then they pass them along and keep the stories going and alive.

My ideal world is my version of perfect. Everyone is happy, there’s candy meadows, people can fly, everyone is at peace. I have another blog post about my ideal world, check it out! Ideal worlds really depend on the person making them, they are really fun to make.

After we had made our ideal world and our cuentos, we made books! We had Peg Gignoux come and she helped me and my class make books. We did ink printing then we collaged, then we did folding and cutting, and putting on our covers.

Thanks for reading! I hope you read The Last Cuentista!

Window or Mirror?

My book that I just finished last weekend was Warriors Super Edition: Bramblestar’s Storm by Erin Hunter. It was about wild cats that live in clans. Warriors is a series and Warriors Super Edition: Bramblestar’s Storm is about specifically Bramblestar’s view when there was a storm and the clans’ territories were flooded. Warriors Super Edition: Bramblestar’s Storm was a window for me. Warriors Super Edition: Bramblestar’s Storm by Erin Hunter is a fictional story. I chose this book because I love the Warriors series and I finished it so now I’m reading the super edition books.

Warriors Super Edition: Bramblestar’s Storm is a window for me because I’m not a cat, I don’t live in ThunderClan or any one of the Clans, and my home has never been flooded. I don’t choose window books on purpose because I just choose books I want to read. I do usually end up reading window books because I like fictional books. 

Two of My Favorite Series (WARNING: SPOILER ALERT)

 

Two of my favorite series are Warriors also known as Warrior Cats by Erin Hunter, and Wings of Fire by Tui T. Sutherland. I recommend them to the people who like animals and adventures. There is some violence in them but they’re still really good books.

Warriors is about groups of cats, clans, that live together and follow the Warrior Code. The clans are ThunderClan, RiverClan (my personal favorite), WindClan, ShadowClan, and SkyClan. The Warriors series is really really long with different arcs, if you do read them make sure you get the books from the right arc! There is also super edition books and they’re about specific cats. Erin Hunter is a pseudonym which is a fake name an author or authors could use. Erin Hunter is a group of people under one name, the people are Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, Tui Sutherland, Gillian Philip, Inbali Iserles and Victoria Holmes. Currently there is more books coming in the Warriors series, Erin Hunter is making another arc called The Starless Clan, the newest book, Sky the second book in The Starless Clan arc was released November 1st 2022.

Now for Wings of Fire (WOF), WOF is a series about dragons that live in tribes. The tribes are IceWings, SkyWings, SeaWings, MudWings, SandWings, NightWings, RainWings, LeafWings, SilkWings, and HiveWings. This series written by Tui T. Sutherland who also was a part in writing Warriors (look above 👆). Correct me if I’m wrong, but WOF book 16 is coming out on the 27th of December 2022. I think it’s called The Beginning of the End. I’m exited to see what it’s going to be about!

Thank you so much for reading, I hope you read and enjoy these series!
