The Silver Pencil
The book was given to me by my cousin, Haley. I needed to do a book report on a book for school and I came across it. So I did it for a book report. I thought it was a wonderful book and very exciting to see what might happen next.

Janet is the main character and lives in Trinidad but then she moves to England. Her father gives her a silver pencil for Christmas. After Christmas, her father dies. She was very sad. She came to America to attended college to become a kindergarden teacher. She wrote a story with her silver pencil and got it published. She liked to write and wrote many stories.

It was a very interesting book and one that one would not want to put down. I recommend this book to teenagers as well as younger children who love to read. It would be an encouragement to anyone who likes to write stories.

A very fascinating book to read.
This book involves a girl named Janet.She expierences a death of her father. She also loves to write. This story based on Janet desciribes how her life begins at age nine reading the book Little Women ending older as being a teacher reading the same book, but with a whole different prespective. This book of my opinion is a wonderful book for all ages wanting to have a good book in there hands.

I read this book and it is a great book!

A lovely Easter story
The Egg Tree is a great story about a little girl's Easter morning egg-hunting experience. Though she is unsuccessful, she does uncover a wonderful Easter suprise. The little girl, and the reader, is introduced to the Pennsylvania Dutch technique of painting eggs, when she finds a cache of her grandmother's beautifully decorated eggs. The examples of folk art throughout the book are wonderful, and easily accessible for children. This book will prompt your family to begin their own egg decorating tradition.
