Rat Here!

Rat has a story to tell and here's your chance to speak the language of Rat! Tell your true feelings about Emmy, about being caged up... about living life as a rat.
This will be your chance at writing a first-person (well... first-Rat Narrative!)

A Note from Emmy

Emmy has a message for the world and here's your chance to say it for her. If she could tell the "REAL STORY" about her feelings... about Rat.... about Miss Barmy... about her parents, what would she say?

Ending of Chapter 2

Cheerio, Book Bloggers!
At the end of Chapter 2 of Emmy and the Incredible Shrinking Rat, we read:
"She hesitated. It looked dirty. It looked dangerous.
She stepped in."

Tell me what you think Emmy is stepping in to.
Describe what you think she'll see... describe what you think she'll do... describe what you think happens next.

Be creative! Use good adjectives. Here's your chance to be an AUTHOR!!

Random Stuff

Luke, from Mrs. K's class suggested that we have a random place where we could post our own thoughts and comments. Be sure, when you're posting, that it's either BOOK RELATED, LIBRARY RELATED, or CLASSROOM RELATED.

OOPS!

Hi LHBookBloggers!

I just came online to see if anybody had commented yet, on our blog, and there were no comments. I went... ((???????))
OOPS! My bad! I forgot to tell you that when you post a comment, make sure that in the COMMENT AS: box, you click on down arrow and select the option that says NAME/URL.

Put your first name in the name box and you can include the first letter of your last name. Don't put anything in the URL box. Then, I'll be able to see your comments. Sorry about that!
Computers... gotta love 'em!
Happy Blogging!
Love,
Mrs. Shaw
