Kerri skipped up to the front with her posters under her arms. She pulled up a desk and propped her poster on it.
"I choose the book Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire this summer.. and to do a poster... soo.. anyways!" She grinned and went through her work.
It wasnt the best, but good enough for her, she never really liked working on projects. She turned a faint shade of pink when her badly stick-glued summery fell off. She giggled and went on.
After she finished she did a mock bow and sat down.

Kain volunteered to go next. He knew his was easily one of the worst ones.
Kain presented a 5 minute 3-D Animated Movie to give the students a true experience on what went on in the book. It showed the enviroments, actions, dialouge, and everything else to depict what was in the book. After that, Kain quietly took his seat.

Rose watched as people before her went up and presented their projects, They were all really good.
Seeing as she was one of the few who haddnt presented yet, Rose stood up and walked to the teacher asking to use her computer to access her slideshow presentation. The teacher nodded and Rose took a seat.
She then opened up the file and started the slides explaining everything that was required for the project, each having its own little side. Once finished she log out of the teachers computer and returned to her seat.

Senya stood up with a bunch of letters in her hand. She presented her project before holding up her letters. " I wrote a letter to the author of Star Girl, Jerri Spinelli. Then I thought, why don't i send it to him? I mean, what's the point of writing a letter, that's never to be recieved?? It's like, going to Harvey's and saying "I'll have a cheeseburger, hold the cheese!!!!!" Senya looked around, and could see her teacher was getting impatiant with her. "Anyways...", Senya continued, "After I looked up his adress, and mailed the letter to him, I recieved a responce in only a couple of days!! And if Mrs. Mezzetti dosen't mind, I'd like to read his letter to me....." Senya turned to her teacher and continued. "I even sent him a rough draft of a book I've been writing, on how to survive siblings! He wrote: Dear Senya, I am very pleased that you appreciate my writing. I had hoped that the youth would learn to love reading, so I wrote books that would be appealing to them. My career is starting to hit it's highest points, and I REALLY need a vacation. Maybe sometime I can come to your school/and or community in Texas. I have been recieving MUCH fan mail, and yours touched me the most. This world could more young writers like you! I really enjoyed your rough draft of "16 children, and only 2 bathrooms" I am also pleased with, not only your work, but the fact that your family has had more bathrooms installed since you first started writing!
Congrats to your mother and father for keeping all of you in line! Also, I have seen your mother's work, and my wife and I are planning on building a new house, and we are interested in having your mother design it for us! I have attatched my personal info to the bottom of this letter, and hope we can keep in touch!
Keep up the great writing,
Jerry Spinelli
P.S. If you don't mind, I would like to send your rough draft to my favorite publisher:
Scholastic Inc., at 557 Broadway, New York, NY 10012
I already showed it to them, and they said that if your are interested, they are all for publishing your book!!!Senya cleared her throught, "And Jerry and I have kept in touch since, and my mother is designing his new home and......" Senya took a DEEP breath in. "MY BOOK COMES OUT OCTOBER 1!!!!!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT??!!!! I AM GOING TO BE BOOK SIGNING TOO!!!!! CAN YOU EVEN IMAGINE TRYING TO KEEP SUCH A BIG SECRET???!!!!" Senya looked VERY relieved. Senya handed Mrs. Mezzetti the letter's as proof, along with a picture of all of her family and Mr. Spinelli in their living room. And with that, she sat back down, happy as ever. ooc: I know, i got carried away, but hay, it's a dream come true!!! 1.) Karen, if you approove of this, may i suggest making a book store 2.) If not, i can't help it!!! lol
