The painting is very avant-garde. Even the director of the art museum had never seen anything so modern and unusual.

The boy is so dyspeptic! He is always frowning and irritable. I do not think he even smiles on Christmas day!

The garrulous girl is always talking. But, the most annoying thing about her is that she is rarely talks about anything but trivial matters and gossip. Everyone thinks she is so immature because everything she says is either exaggerated or not true.

Because I want to read more fantasy and science fiction books, I am going to read the first book in the Fablehaven series. If I like the book, I will try and read the whole series.

# data[].attributes.body
This series is fantasy and I think I will enjoy it because it has some realistic fiction elements. I will read this series once it becomes available at my local library.

- I can empathize with Mary because she just wants what is best for her family.
- I felt bad for Mary because whatever she did, someone would suffer. If she didn't speak up, she might have to spend the rest of her life in prison and the state would take her baby away. Because she spoke up, her mom is going to have to spend the rest of her life in prison.
- I felt really bad for Mary at times because Ms. Stein and Reba should have been helping keep Mary (and all of the other girls) safe. Instead, they just cared about themselves.

I want to finish The Giver quartet. I read the first book (The Giver) last year and I really enjoyed it.

The book Allegedly is a window for me for many reasons. The first reason Allegedly is a window for me is Mary has been in prison for the last 7 years and she is now living in a group home. I do not know what this experience is like. In addition, Mary is pregnant. I do not know what this is like. Finally, Mary has to go to court so that she can fight to prove that she is innocent. I do not know what this experience is like either.  Because of these examples and many others, the book Allegedly, by Tiffany D. Jackson, is a window for me.

- I think that over the course of this unit, my reader identity has shifted a little bit. I still love historical fiction books but, in addition, I now really enjoy realistic fiction books too.

My favorite movie: Miracles from Heaven

- One thing I want to improve during Unit 2 is I want to read more out of my comfort zone. This will help shape my reader identity even more because I will have a better understanding as to what I like and dislike about fantasy and science fiction books.

- I enjoyed reading 25 books this unit. I love reading so, I did not find it hard to read 25 books. Next unit, however, I want to increase my goal to 35 books so I can challenge myself even more.
