This reminds me of one of my close friends.

I connect to the book
Twilight : By Stephanie Meyers
I enjoyed the setting of Forks and it reminded me a lot of summers in PA, Twilight is about a young high - school girl who soon meets a vampire. They face dangers in her meeting him.]]> 2023-01-19 14:18:14 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2449846005 Window books and mirror books(what are they?) - gabe https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2449846139 I currently cannot think of a window book, I will edit this later

One window book I have read is called ¨Allies¨

It is 3 stories, all happening on June 6th, 1944 (my history people know what happens on that day).]]> 2023-01-19 14:18:19 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2449846139 Window book (where the mountain meets the moon by grace lin) https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450353700 this book can serve as a window because it provides a glimpse into Chinese culture and folklore, and it also teaches important lessons about perseverance, kindness, and the power of imagination

   It tells the story of Minli, a young girl who lives in a poor village at the base of a mountain. Her family is struggling to make ends meet, so she sets off on a journey to find the Old Man of the Moon, in the hope that he will be able to change her family's fortunes. Along the way, she meets a dragon, a talking goldfish, and other magical creatures and learns about a legendary treasure that could help her village.                       ]]> 2023-01-19 20:25:35 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450353700 Mirrors and windows -dimitri https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450389017 A window book I have is the revenge of magic because it shows how the main character suffers a loss when his father dies.
A mirror book I have is falling up because I like poetry and it's a book filled with short poems and I like to write short poems]]> 2023-01-19 21:04:42 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450389017 Turtle boy~By: Evan Wolkenstein https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450399464 This is a mirror book because before when I was in younger grades I got bullied because I was to shy and not as explosive as the other kids in my class.

I'm going to start reading a book called Rick just like another person because it seems like it goes very deep in some factors and I also feel like the main idea is very deep in the story.]]> 2023-01-19 21:16:18 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450399464 Wings of fire- By Tui T Sutherland https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450402372 This is a window book that I started reading. This is a window book because it is a fantasy book about a world of dragons so it can tell me about what it would be like if I lived in a world with dragons.]]> 2023-01-19 21:20:09 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450402372 Mirror and Window Books https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450410203 For my mirror book I chose Hatchet by Gray Paulson because its about a boy named Brian Robeson who's parents have separated and I can relate to that because my parents are in the earlier stages of being separated and soon I will have to go from house to house just like Brian. He was on his way to see his dad and then it all happened……

For my window book i am going to chose The modern retelling of Little Women by Rey Terciero and Bre Indigo. I find it a great window book because their father is away in the military and there mother is a doctor that works long hours and I feel like its something that so many people can relate to more than you think. It shows the hardships people in that situation go through so you can really be put in there shoes.]]> 2023-01-19 21:29:49 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450410203 Lord of the Flies- By William Golding https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450413274 This is a window book for me because it explores the idea that without any established order, initial innocence can quickly turn into brutality. I can’t directly relate to the story but I found that peer pressure can make children make very stupid decisions, which I found to be quite true in this day and age. 

The book also functions on the fundamental ideal of “survival of the strongest” after they go from civilized English students to uncivilized island savages.
I enjoy the books with these kinds of ideologies and deeper meaning, which is why I chose this book.

]]> 2023-01-19 21:33:55 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450413274 Insurgent - By Veronica Roth https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450415168 Insurgent, by Veronica Roth, is a window book because it explains to the reader about the problems that the main character, Tris, has to face. Including forgiveness, grief, love, loyalty, politics, and identity, all while a war is raging on.

I sometimes visit him (in plane too!)

One window book I have read is called ¨Allies¨

It is 6 stories, all happening on June 6th, 1944 (my history people know what happens on that day). 

There are 6, like I said, so im gonna copy and paste an article on the book plot:

ARTICLE ON THE BOOK:
the six stories named after real d day operations:

Operation Neptune  – Dee
Sid and Dee arrive at Omaha Beach. As soon as the door to the Higgins boat opens, German machine guns blast the soldiers. When Dee gets out of the boat, he realizes they are in deep water. Sergeant Taylor yells for help because he can’t swim. Dee goes to help him. By the time the two reach shore, Taylor has died from a gunshot wound in Dee’s arms…

Operation Tortoise – Samari
Samira and her mother, Kenza, leave the house after curfew to deliver a coded message to a rural guerrilla band of French Resistance fighters, the Maquis. When they spot German soldiers arresting French villagers from their homes, Kenza rushes to help. Kenza sends Samira to quiet the barking dog, so they won’t be caught. Kenza is arrested with the others. Samira barely escapes by hiding in the doghouse. So, just how can she help her mother escape?

Operation Tonga –  James
James rides in the airplane with the other paratroopers from Canada several hours before the foot soldiers arrive on the beaches of Normandy. After landing in Normandy, James realizes he is seven miles away from his mission…

Operation Amiens – Bill
Bill crosses the English Channel with three tank crews. When the boat reaches the shore,  one tank Coventry’s Revenge is hit by a big gun and explodes. Achilles makes it through the surf, but Valiant becomes stuck. A distance up the beach, a German 88 fires at Achilles disabling the treads and creating a large crater in front of the tank…

Operation Integration –  Henry
Henry comes to Omaha Beach with the all-black 320th Barrage Balloon Battalion. Their mission is to raise balloons after the beach invasion is over. The balloons are damaged in transport, so the battalion decides to help in the invasion wherever they can. This leaves Henry, a medic, to help the wounded men on the beach. Henry sets up a lean-to clinic and gets to work…

Operation Bathing Suit – Monique
Thirteen-year-old Monique spends twelve hours hiding out in a small beach hut while gunfire and explosions take place on the nearby beach. She had been swimming the day before and left her swimsuit in the beach hut. Monique had returned to get it just as the battle on the beach started. Monique spends the day singing to drown out the sounds of fighting.

When Monique comes out of the safety of the beach hut at eight o’clock that night, she hears a man calling out for help. Monique knells by a wounded soldier and diagnoses that he is in shock…

yeah there is a lot. for those who like action, I would 100% recommend this book.

Frankweiler because the main characters live in semi-poverty and run away from home. Where I live don't live in poverty and I didn't run away.

My mirror book is Ban This Book because if you take books away from people you might as well take them all away.
Also I like reading and the main character likes reading.]]> 2023-01-19 22:51:40 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450462305 Window books and mirror books https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450463514 My window book is Wonder by R.J. Palacio. It is about Auggie, a boy with facial deformaties and just enters fifth grade only to get bullied because of how he looked like. He faces a lot of challenges an this book is about how he tries to overcome these obstacles. ]]> 2023-01-19 22:54:31 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450463514 Window book By:R.J Palacio https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450464021 I read this book many times before, and every time I read it, I get something new out of it.  This book is called Wonder by R.J Palacio.  This book is about a 10 year old boy and his name is August and he was born with  a severe facial difference.  In total, August had 27 surgeries on his face that doctors had to perform.  August was homeschooled until he went to the school "Beecher prep" in 5th grade.  He got bullied in school because of the way his face looked/was formed.  The person that August mostly felt a connection with was Summer.  They met because Summer felt bad for August because of the way people were treating him, so one day Summer came up to August and asked to sit with him in lunch, and he said "yes".
To sum up the point, August had some up's and downs even though he felt like giving up, he told himself "No I can do this".
This is a window book because August is different than me and I cant relate to him because I am not in his shoes.

MIRROR BOOK              By: Stacy  McAnulty

In the book "The miscalculations of lightning girl", there is a character named Lucy who is 12 years old.  She got struck by lightning and gained extraordinary math skills.  I relate to this character because Lucy is a very shy girl.  I also get really shy when it comes to meeting new people or when I have to talk to complete strangers. I can also relate to her because we are both girls and we are both in middle school.




]]> 2023-01-19 22:55:35 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450464021 Wonder - Preston https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450464226 I think that Wonder is a window book because august is born with a face disorder. This causes him to be bullied and switches around many schools. Slowly but surely, he begins making friends. I have never been bullied in school and I see a whole new perspective in this story. 

I think that Alcatraz versus the Evil Librarians is a mirror book. At the start of the book everything goes wrong for Alcatraz even though he doesn't mean to make a mistake just like what happened to me.

]]> 2023-01-19 22:56:04 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450464226 Windows and Mirrors- Emine https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450464753 My mirror book is about a girl who had a dream of running until she got into a tragic accident and lost her leg but she never gave up on her dream  and kept going this is my mirror book because I’ve gone through some really hard times but I never gave up.A message of this story can be (Never give up even if your at your lowest in life). 


My window book is Wonder. It is about a boy who was born different than other people and he was bullied so much that he stopped wanting to go to school. At first, he was not able to stand up for himself. This is my window book because I have never gone through an experience where I did not trust anyone at school and didn’t ever want to go there again. A message for this can be (Never give up even times are hard).

]]> 2023-01-19 22:57:08 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450464753 From The Mixed-Up files Of Ms. Basil E. Frankweiler https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450466893 My window book is  From The Mixed-Up files Of Ms. Basil E. Frankweiler because in the book the main characters run away from home to a museum and stay  there for a while, and I have not run away from home.

I can't think of a book but I am pretty sure I have read one.

It is a book in a post apocalyptic setting in an underground city.  This is a window book for me because I can visualize how people would live in a underground city with limited resources and food / electricity running out, no idea that there is a world above, and no sense of what common things like matches and boats are.  It is a very interesting and fun series full of twists and surprises. 

My mirror book is a book called Lunch Money. This is my mirror book because it is about a kid who likes to make money. To make money he made comics and sold them to kids. I can relate to this book because I have once made comics to sell for money too.]]> 2023-01-19 23:17:11 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450474959 Windows and Mirrors-Leon https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450478413 A window book that I can think about is Out Of My Mind. This is a book about a very smart girl with a disability. She has cerebral palsy and cannot walk, control her body movements, and most importantly talk.  She has photographic memory and wants to participate in a jeopardy team. She is the smartest on the team, but has trouble being accepted. This is a window book for me because I have never felt unaccepted because of a disability.
This also can be a mirror book because I have also had trouble expressing myself and it is frustrating.]]> 2023-01-19 23:24:16 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450478413 Windor and Mirror Books (and/or recommendations) -Sofie https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450479119 I've read almost wayyyyy too many books, and I realized half of them are mostly window books (mirror, not so sure). Here's a list of a few:
-When Stars are Scattered; graphic novel
-New Kid and Class Act; graphic novel series
-Cities of Dragons; graphic novel
-A Northern Light; chapter book (I'm currently reading it)
-Young Samurai (In Mr.Yehudah's library)
-Out of my mind (don't have)
-The Book Thief (Don't have)
-Because of Winn Dixie (anyone from previous years will remember; Don't have)
-I can make this Promise (don't have)
If anyone is interested I have all of the graphic novels listed above, so if u want u could borrow them.

When Stars Are Scattered:
A window book I've read (several times) is When Stars Are Scattered. It is about 2 brothers in Dada, a refugee camp in Kenya. Life is hard there: never enough food, achingly dull, and without access to the medical care Omar's nonverbal brother needs. So when Omar has the opportunity to go to school, he knows it might be a chance to change their future...but it would also mean leaving his brother, his only remaining family member, every day.]]> 2023-01-19 23:25:56 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450479119 Window+Mirrors https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450482279 A window book I've read, like Leon is out of my mind which is about a mute and paralyzed kid. and it shows me the difficulty of having a disability.
I have also read when the stars are scattered and many other I cannot think of right now.
As for mirror books, I have read some at one point I just can't think of it right now]]> 2023-01-19 23:32:39 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450482279 window and mirror- Derek https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450485234 My book is called Young Samurai the way of the warrior is about a kid named Jack that is from Europe coming to the Japans to explore and trade riches but when Jack, his father, and their crew were almost reached Japan a group of ninja attack them  Jack is the only one that survived. the book takes place in ancient Japan and is a very good book.

Still thinking about a mirror book]]> 2023-01-19 23:38:41 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450485234 Window and Mirror Books : Owen 601 https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450486025 Mirror book: Alcatraz book 1 by Brando Sando 
In this book Alcatraz does something without knowing that he would deeply regret it after he knew what he had done. This is a mirror book to me because I always do things recklessly and then get in trouble for it.

Window book: Harry Potter book 1
This book says that Harrys parents get murdered and this is a window book because others may have had their parents murdered

]]> 2023-01-19 23:40:07 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450486025 https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450491539 1.Wonder
This book is a window book because I do not know what's it's like having a deformed face, and being bullied.The book is about Wonder who is starting middle school and has a deformed face.He would get bullied a lot and people would laugh at him a lot. Later on in the story Wonder meets friends named Summer and Jack Will,and has those two are the people who didn't care what Wonder looked like.

I am trying to think of a mirror book

This book is a window book for me because I've never experienced loss before. Also, because I am not an orphan. This book is about a 10-year-old boy named Bud getting adopted by his new family the Amoses (his third foster family). It is also about how bud's new stepbrother bullied him constantly creating a bad environment for bud. 

Mirror: My mirror book is called Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. I believe that this is a mirror book to all especially for myself because who doesn't love playing video games in a utopia world? This book takes place in the year 2044 and is about a teenage boy named Wade Watts. The only time he feels alive is when he's jacked into the virtual utopia world. Throughout the book Wade studies puzzles and gets new clues that help him toward the three keys that you get when you finish the whole entire game. 
- The book is way much more interesting than the explanation I just gave. ]]> 2023-01-20 00:07:27 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450500077 Mirror books and Window books https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450511627 other. 
--------------------------------------------------------------Mirror book:
I am currently reading the book "Asha and the Spirit Bird" by Jasbinder Bilan. This book is about Asha. An eleven-year-old girl who lives in the Himalayas with her mother and her younger siblings. Her father works in the city and sends them money he gets from his job. And when he stops sending the money, Meena a moneylender steals and causes damage to Asha's house. Then Asha makes a promise/pact with Jeevan(Asha's best friend) to find her father and to fix everything. But it isn't easy. Asha and Jeevan face many challenges. This book shows you how to conquer some of the greatest obstacles. 
This book is a mirror book for me. The reason for that is, that I've once had to take down/conquer obstacles of my life.
-----------------------------------------
Window book:
I have read the book, Wonder(By R.J. Palacio). It's not the book I'm reading right now but it is a window book to me. Here is what it is about: Meet Auggie Pullman a 10-year-old who loves his dog Daisy, his Xbox, and is a HUGE fan of star wars. Auggie has a facial condition and he has had 27 surgeries. Auggie has been homeschooled for his whole life because of this condition(his parents thought he would get bullied)- well up until now. Auggie starts 5th grade at Beecher prep. All that Auggie wants is for everyone to ignore his face and treat him like a normal kid. Auggie gets bullied by his classmates because they can't get by Auggie's extraordinary face. 
This is a window book for me because I don't have a facial condition like how Auggie does, and I saw a different perspective while I read this book.]]> 2023-01-20 00:26:52 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450511627 Window and Mirror books - ava :) https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450518065 A window book I have is Guts by Raina Telgemeier, i consider this a window book because it shows me perspective of people who suffer from anxiety and who go through hard changes while learning to adapt. 

A mirror book I have is twilight by Stephanie Meyer because forks reminds me of when go to georgia for thankgiving and summer and it has a cool breeze and it also reminds me of grandpas house because i visioned it with a white picket fence and a short beige house like my grandpas and forks gives me comfort being with my grandpa does :)]]> 2023-01-20 00:37:33 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450518065 Mirror Book and Window Book -Ben https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450525094 My Window book is an amazing novel called "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time". It is about a genius boy named Christopher who lives in England who has a very bad form of autism. One day, Christopher mysteriously finds his neighbors dog dead in their backyard. Christopher decides to try to figure out the mystery, and it is very interesting to read. This book was recommended by my mom and sister, and it is not very appropriate for our grade, but most people should read it in 8th grade or high school. 



My mirror book is a read aloud book we read in class called "Front Desk". It is my mirror book because it explains how the main character, Mia Tang, had to immigrate to America from a faraway country, just like me. I really recommend this book because it is really fun and interesting to read when reading it because it explains how Mia has to run the front desk of a hotel her family lives in.

J. Palacio: I chose wonder because in wonder there is a boy called August and he was born with a face problem and people will bully him. So I chose it because I never got bullied by a face problem and I was not in his shoe so I don't really know how it feels like and if I was I will feel very bad

Mirror book: In dairy of a wimpy kid The long haul, It was about Greg and his family going out to a road trip and a lot of things got in trouble and it is a mirror book for me because when me and my family go on a road trip we sometimes have trouble and we went home without playing and having fun.]]> 2023-01-20 00:58:50 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450530723 Window and Mirror books -Sarah https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450548932 Window book: I am number four by Pittacus Lore. It is a book about 9 alien kids who are being hunted by other aliens. They are basically the last of their kind and are trying to survive on earth and blend in until they are older and get their powers. This book is a mirror book for me because it is about trying to fit in to everyone else and I don’t really try to  be like others, because I am my own person. 

Mirror book: Bastille versus the evil librarians (Alcatraz 6). In this book Bastille gets to become an oculator (What she always wanted) but only for a few minutes. This book is a window book for me because it often happens that I succeed and something and the realize that I didn’t actually succeed (like that I think I made something pretty but then I look too hard and it’s ugly).]]> 2023-01-20 01:26:55 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450548932 Window/Mirror Book: Esperanza Rising - By Pam Munoz Ryan (Joseph.T) https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450556767 Window Book: Esperanza Rising is my mirror book because what the protagonist goes through throughout the story, Esperanza, is a tough work life. Her family lived in a big house, living out their life being rich. Then, something happens (no spoilers) and they have to live out a tough, minimal pay life on a farm struggling to keep themself stable.]]> 2023-01-20 01:39:38 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450556767 Salomea https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450558518 The window book I am currently reading is Asha and the Spirit bird. It is a window for me because Asha has a different culture than me. She worships Hindu gods like Shiva and the book uses many Hindu words that I don’t know. Asha is going on a quest to find her father, who has mysteriously disappeared. 

The mirror book I just finished reading is Percy Jackson, the Lightning Thief. It’s a mirror book for me because Percy only has a few friends (one singular friend, Grover). There’s also another reason I consider it a mirror book, but since we’re going to read it in class, I don’t want to spoil anything.]]> 2023-01-20 01:42:34 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450558518 ~Mirror & Window Books ~Ava S. https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450566550 ~One mirror book that I have read is EVERY SOUL A STAR. It is a mirror book to me because one of the characters Bree, doesn't want to leave her friends and her life at her old home and move. I felt this way when I first started 6th grade and BSI. Now, this book is a mirror book.

~One window book that I have read is BLENDED. It is a window book because the main character, Isabella, is mixed race and has divorced parents. She doesn't know if she belongs with her white mom in a small house, or her black dad in a huge mansion.]]> 2023-01-20 01:55:10 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450566550 Window/Mirror Book -Sam K https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450572158 The outsiders is my mirror book because it really shows what life was like back in the 60's. The outsiders is a book based on a kid named Ponyboy and what his life was like being in a gang called the greasers. The greasers were known as the poor run down gang and there rivals the Socs were known as the rich gang. The story is about the adventures that Ponyboy had and it shows a new window to the past.

My mirror book is Esperanza rising because my parents were immigrants and came to America to start a new life. And I think that it really shows how hard starting fresh can be.]]> 2023-01-20 02:03:12 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450572158 Window~Hayli: prairie lotus: Linda Sue Park https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2450586638 Prairie Lotus is about a girl named Hanna, who is trying to revive one thing-education.

He grew up homeschooled, and he's starting with a fresh start at 5th in Beecher Prep, but he's constantly mistreated because of how different he looks form everyone else.

Although I am currently reading it, it can relate to me as they try to hide or camouflage within the crowds of people so that hunters, don't find him or suspect that he is one of the different people. This is similar as it reminds me of everytime I move to a new school it's hard to make friends, and fit in.

Window book: Hidden Figures, Margot Lee Shetterly. This book I read during my younger ages with my mother, this book really inspired me about how anybody can make a change no matter what, and how powerful you can be no matter if you have a disability, or are different. Some books that have taught me from other people opinions are Wonder, Rick, Etc. ]]> 2023-01-20 23:51:11 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2451633177 Daiwen's Books https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2452606595 My window books are:
- Wonder by R.J. Palacio because  I am not bullied because of my appearance. Wonder is about a 10-year old child who is teased and bullied because his face looks different.
- Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan, because I am not considered troubled and I don't go to a boarding school. The Lightning Thief is about a troubled 12-year old boy who discovers that he is a demigod.
My mirror books are a Work in Progress. ]]> 2023-01-22 22:30:16 UTC https://padlet.com/25michaelg2/c74z5swgb22p3nww/wish/2452606595
