DEAR CRAIG, I think that you are going over board with the story. I think there is more to a story than what you wrote . I think that Mrs. Partrige's house is very spooky. But you can't jump to conclutions like Phoebe and say that Mrs. Partrige is weird. So next time don't write about something mean but something that you know about the story.

We like this book so far because the author really knows how to put two stories together and make it alike and different. We talked about how we can compare and contrast the two stories.We wrote that we think huzza huzza means a different term for hush hush.We also put, " We consider ourselfs to be brave people because we know God is with us and we are very faithful.

Why don't Sal like Margerate? Ithink I know what Huzza Huzza mean. I think Huzza Huzza means hush up.In chapter 15 I think chapter 15 is the best part .

In the story Mary thought Alex was a jerk and he had pink skin.I think that part of the story was extremly funny.I also wonder why the teacher wanted his class to write a journal like that.

Dear Reader,
I think my story was a fairly good story. I am going to tell you a breif story on chapter 29.

"Did your mother call yet, Pheobe"? No Sal she didn't. "Come on we're going to be late for school". Pheobe said. Pheobe and Sal talked to Sargent Bickle. he asked her for the messages that the luntic had sent, Witch where.....:

Don't judge a man until you've walked two moons

Every one has their own agenda

In a course of a life time, what does it matter

You can't keep the bird of sadness from flying over your head, but you can them from nesting in your hair.

Pheobe also told Sargent Bickle about Mrs. Cadaver. He called Pheobe's dad and came to the school and they had to go home because they were in trouble and Mr. Winterbottem went had to talk to Mrs. Cadaver.

I think the book is very good because the author used very good words. The words make you want to read more of the book. I do not think the teacher is being very nice by reading what the kids write in thier books. It makes the kids wonder who wrote about them. It makes the kids very sad because of the books.

Dear,reader I would be embarrassed if someone read out loud my personal business and feelings.One of the reason is if I wrote about someone and what I wrote was really mean and the next day I felt totally different about that person and someone read what I wrote so that person I wrote about will be hurt.

Huzza huzza is in the dictionary. It means a shout of joy or encouragement. Do you think that the words are very interesting? I do. Do you think the lunitic who might be Sargent Bickles son kiddnapped Mrs.Winterbottom? Do you think Mr.birkway was lying when he said that Mr.Cadaver died in a car crash? Please answer some of my questions.

Dear World,
We feel sorry for Sal&Phoebe because they did not want their journals read, but Mr. Birkway read them anyway. We would not like it if someone read our journals without our permission.
