  2. John really likes the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books series (I Think)
  3. I would also recommend this to him because he likes to retell the stories and adventures of Diary of A Wimpy Kid



This is my Holiday Reading Challenge number 3. I had to recommend a book to someone and I picked John.

Holiday Reading Challenge 2: Rewrite the Ending - Tim

If I could rewrite the ending it would go something like this.


I went through my clothes and I picked up my shorts and something small fell out of it. It was the key from Soak Central, I didn’t realize I had it all along.  I have three basic choices. Either Tell the truth, Bury it under Rodrick’s clothes or flush it down the toilet. I had to go with the first one because telling the truth may hurt but atleast I can relax and forget about it.
Title - Diary of A Wimpy Kid Long Haul
Author - Jeff Kinney
Type Of Book - Humour



I am actively doing the holiday reading challenge. I picked the task where I had to re write the ending. I am pretty happy how I re writed the ending, some sentences may be included in the book but towards the end I changed it up a bit.

Holiday Reading Challenge 1: Casting Choices - Tim

Diary of a Wimpy Kid - Long Haul
Author - Jeff Kinney
Type of Book - Humour
I cast these actors as these characters because I think they would be a nice family with three sons that like to fight and have fun once in a while.
Zachary Gordon - Greg Heffley
Devon Bostick - Rodrick Heffley
Steve Zahn - Frank Heffley
Rachael Harris - Susan Heffley
Image result for zachary gordon
Image result for devon bostick
Image result for steve zahn
Image result for rachael harris
I think Zachary Gordon would be a good actor if my book was turned into a movie. I think he would good because he is that type of person that looks like they would right in a journal and that type of person who likes to sit and watch TV all day
I think Devon Bostick would be a good actor because he looks that person who like to play video games, be in a rock band and trash a neighbours with toilet paper.
I think Steve Zahn will be a perfect father to both Greg and Rodrick. He seems like the perfect father and deal with them every time they are fighting
I think Rachael Harris will be a great mother to both Greg and Rodrick and also a wonderful wife to her husband Frank Heffley. I think she will be good because in the story the mother talks about a-lot of educational things so I think she will be a perfect mother to do that.

This is my holiday reading challenge that I did. I had to read a book which in my case was Diary Of A Wimpy Kid Long Haul. I had to chose actresses and actors if my book was turned into a movie and I had to say why. I chose Zachary Gordon, Devon Bostick, Steve Zahn and Rachael Harris.

Famous Face: Tim

This is my Famous Face presentation which was set by Mrs Anderson. We had to chose a famous person which is from our culture or from our country. I chose Aung Saan Kyi. She is the president in Burma 

Mission 3 - Tim


My Mission 3 presentation was set for me and room 5 by Mrs Anderson. I had to write a short explanation on my favourite books and my favourite author. I really like John Green's Book because he is a very inspirational author and person.

Famous Face - Tim


My Famous Face Presentation is about Aung San Suu Kyi. Aung San Suu Kyi is the current Prime Minister of Burma after replacing his dad after he was assassinated because of political reasons.
