One day to go

I can't believe tomorrow is the first day of school.  I'd like to thank all of the readers who blogged on our Swasey Summer Site this year.  You all did an amazing job, thank you for sharing your book reviews with our school community.  Here are two final book reviews.  After today, we'll be back to blogging on SCS Connections.

The book I read was The Surprise Attack Of JabbaThe Puppet. At Mcquarrie middle school all the fun classes were replaced with Funtime, a program that is bad. The characters are Professor Funtime, Gismo, a singing calculator, and Wordsworth, a break dancing dictionary. There is a group of good kids that  start a origami rebel alliance to stop Funtime. You have to read the book to find out the rest. I would recommend  this book to Star Wars lovers.  

The book I read was Civil War Ghosts. If you like civil war and ghosts read this book. For example, if you go to Beauregard Keyes house, which is a popular inn on 1113 Chartres St. in New Orleans, Louisiana, you might really get to see a ghostly reenactment at night of THE BATTLE OF SHILOH in the ballroom. The book says the walls of the room appear to fade and open out into a scene of the Shiloh battleground.  I won't  spoil the surprise  but just as a warning the deeper into the night the more terrifying it gets. I would recommend this book to a history lover or someone looking for somewhere to scare their family on vacation.
