Addy finishes books

I finished Homer Price. After that, we read Mr. Popper's Penguins. Now we're on Mountain Born.

I would recommend Homer Price to a kid who likes to read about adventures. I would recommend Mr. Popper's Penguins to a kid who likes to read about penguins.

Homer Price is a kid who is good at building TVs and saving people from robbers and finding out who other people are. My favorite chapter was about when Homer Price found some formula to making medicine.

Mr. Popper's Penguins was a book about Mr. Popper got a penguin sent to him in a little box with holes in it and then that penguin got kind of sick and he called someone who had another penguin and his was a little bit feeling sick, too, and they both wondered if it was because they had no one to play with, and then they had 10 eggs and then Mr. Popper and Mrs. Popper trained all those penguins to each do something special. The penguins performed lots of times.

I read classic literature to Addy as part of her Sonlight Core 1 curriculum. We study about two per month.
