What I Want To Be When I Grow Up

I have decided to become a photographer.
Here are some of the pictures I took. I hope you like them.



This is Esther. She was chasing a butterfly.


Diamond was wondering why I was putting a camera in her face.

I don't think she appreciated it. What do you think?



This is Victoria after a long day of playing. I think she is telling me to get lost, that she doesn't want to play anymore.


This is Ruby fishing. Oh look. She caught a frog.

This is Peridot getting a suntan.



Opal is wondering why I ruined her cat nap.

The demo-cats and the re-puppy-kins are going head-to-head.


Victoria is still trying to get me to go away.


She still is.......


Peridot: The Wild Cat Within.


Victoria wants to play with Muncie but not with me. What's up with that?


Hmmm.....I wonder if that squirrel would taste good with ketchup on it?


Don't stick your tongue out at me, Peridot!


And imagine, I don't even have my own camera.

Look What I found?


Look at what I found in our condo! Isn't it cool? A Beetle!

But THIS is WAY better!

A giant horseshoe crab!

The beetle's backThe horseshoe crab's back


The beetle's stomach...The horseshoe crab's stomach...


This is how big the beetle is. It's laying next to my pinkie.



This is how big the horseshoe crab is.....

I'm lying next to it and I'm 5 foot 1 inch. Which one do you think is better?

Mom? Which one can I take home?

Mischief

OH NO! How traumatic!
Victoria somehow managed to get duct tape on her neck.


We'll have to do surgery!

We're going to need help. We had better call in our older sister A2.


We finally manged to get it off.

Dad isn't going to be happy about his duct tape!

Our hero! Thanks A2!

Not Another One! YES! Another One!

Hi! This is Boy in a Zoo with your host - ME!!

People who know us might want to sit down right now, because we got another animal!

Her name is Victoria



She is a blue-eyed, brown-eyed Australian Shepherd-Blue Tick Hound Mix.


She also has a super power.

Anyone who truly loves animals in their heart

can see a heart-shaped patch of fur on her head.





Friends and family I know you think we are crazy but could you really leave this sweet baby all alone in a pet store? She was the runt and all of her brothers and sisters were beating up on her.

We had to take her!! Could YOU have turned her down?

Oh, and here is a tip to find out if you pass the test..Are you a true animal lover: The heart on her head appears upside down in the picture.

A Book Report My Mom Made Me Do

is a book about mystical creatures and fairies.




The main characters are Jarred who is quick to get mad, Simon an animal lover, Mallory who loves to fence, Thimbletack a naughty brownie, Byron a fierce griffin, Mrs. Grace the mother of Jarred, Simon and Mallory, and Morgurath an evil ogre who dreams to steal the field guide, a book that has all the secrets of mythical creatures and of fairies written on its pages and is in the possession of Jarred.


In this story 13year old Mallory is kidnapped by dwarves, 9 year old twins Jarred and Simon try to rescue her and end up getting captured themselves. But thanks to: trickery, luck, Jarred’s knowledge of fairies, Simon’s love of pets, even robot ones, and a caveknockers help, they are able to escape unscathed but they soon discover that Morgurath has stolen the field guide and kidnapped their mother.

What happens next? What happens before this? All excellent questions and all can be answered by reading the other books in the Spiderwick Chronicles. I hope you will read and enjoy the Spiderwick Chronicles as much as I have.

THE END!
