Taxidermy

A few weeks ago we went on a field trip to drop off my dads deer antlers at a taxidermy place. We got to see how they do it. We got a full head mount done.  My dad picked it up from the taxidermy place. It looks cool. Here is a picture of it.

Books

 In Reading I have been reading these two books. Both are really good.

.

 Tuck Everlasting is about a family of four people. They were walking in a forest, they found a spring and decided to drink out of it. What they didn't know was this spring was magical  and will make them live forever. It is such a great book. 

War With Grandpa is about a boy named Pete. His grandpa comes to live with him, and he has to give up his room. Pete has to have his room up in the attic because his grandpa can't walk upstairs. So Pete gets mad, and decides to go to war with him for taking his room. It is a very funny book, and it is very good.

You should read both of these books.
