Not all magic is whimsical

I was showing a poem to my english teacher the other day and asked if I could make a poem kind of similar to it for our poetry project. He looks at it and says:

“Oh! You want to do something whimsical?”

day 16

Back to school! Agh I'm so tired. We're reading an amazing book in book club called "The Charmed Children of Rookskill Castle" by Janet Fox. It's a young adult novel but I recommend it to all ages. It's like a Miss Peregrine novel but WAY easier to follow! It's amazing!

Favorite books in Children’s literature

Some people may think it’s weird for older people to be reading children’s literature. It doesn’t bother me what I read as long as the story can hold my attention. Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling = Ever since this series hit the shelves, I feel like it changed things. I feel like it suddenly became okay to read children’s literature when this series came out. I originally didn’t think I’d…
