readers journal#10

Dear Alexander,
The short story I read is called The giraffe and the pelly and me. I really liked this book  alot.It was very interesting to me it was so funny and also detailed.The author is called Roald Dahl.He writes very good for what i read in his book.I really liked this book.
The characters of my book are called:

Giraffe-The giraffe is part of the ladderless window cleaning company.The giraffe can raise it's neck very high.The giraffe is kind of like the ladder.

Pelly(pelican)-The pelican can slide it's beak back into the back of it's neck.The pelly is also part of the lwcc(ladderless window cleaning company.)The pelly is like the bucket of water.

Monkey-Monkey doesn't really have any thing special. Monkey just cleans the windows.He is also part of the lwcc.

Billy- Billy is a boy that loved a candy shop but it closed so he could not believe it.Then he saw a sign that said SOLD he was very unhappy.So the next day he returned to the place and spotted some letters. He read it and saw it said lwcc.He wondered what ladderless window cleaning company meant.He then spotted some animals in some windows,they owned the place.He then became the manager.

Duke-He is very rich and owns a very big house and thanked the lwcc for all the hard work they had done.
The setting is in Europe.It is very detailed.The setting does not change.
The plot of my book is about a boy that finds out that his favorite candy shop is sold.The new place is called lwcc(ladderless window cleaning company.)He did not know what this meant.Then he spotted some animals,they were inside the building.He was surprised to see animals in the building.Then they made him manager of the company.After all this a guy came and read a letter to them from the Duke.It said that he wanted them to clean his window because they were so filthy and dirty.They were very happy because they were going to get paid and be able to buy food with that money.They were famished(hungry) because they did not have any money to buy any food.Then they turned the lwcc into a candy shop because they could get anything they needed from the Duke.Especially food.The new candy store was very marvelouse.It had so many different type of candys there were alot of different typed of varieties from alot of different places.For the first day when the shop opened Billy was letting people get free candy.It was alot of people outside waiting for candy.
The conflict of my story is that the animals did not have any money for food so they were starving.
The resolution is that the Duke gave them all the food they needed.He did because they did a outstanding job in the window cleaning.And for cathching a burglar who was robbing his house.
I really liked this book it was very interesting.Also it was detailed very much.
My least favorite part was the part where they said they had not ate for along time.It is because i feel sad for them and i think the author shouldn't have put that.
My favorite part is the part where they get all the food they need.It is because i am happy they get to eat in such a long time.
The theme is that you should never give up hope.(They have no food they keep on woking to get it.)

  2. Dear Julio,
    I really like how you wrote your blog. You did it in a organizing way and neat way. Write more amazing journals like this. I also liked your summary. You did it very well. First question. What would you do in the setting of Europe? Who is your favorite character that relates to you the most? I suggest you next time write more in your summary to make it more detailed. That doesn't mean you didn't do a good job...you did do a great job. Just next time write a little more.

  3. Dear Julio,

    Outstanding job telling the plot. I understood the whole thing. A question I have is why did they make Billy manager? Second of all, is how big the shop is; is it big or small? Lastly, how did they clean the windows? What tools did they use?
    Some constructive criticism( Or C.C. as I like to call it.)is that you should proof read you RJ. It has many grammar mistakes in it. An example is "The conflict of my story is that the animals did not have any money for food so they were starving." You forgot to put the comma before so.

    Thank you.I really do not know why they made him manager.
    The shop is big it is two floors.
    They cleaned the windows with cloth/some fabric.
