Literary Luminary
Page: 146- 166

Paragraph 1:
 "Presents", Josie said, a secret smile lightening her face. I curled up in bed, looking out the window at a pale moon and trees thick with snow,thinking I never seen anything beautiful. I could see movement at the edge of the trees and sat up to see what it was. And suddenly, a fox, silver gray with his tail streaming out in back of him, darted across that open space, crossed the ice, and was gone.

I choose this passage because I liked the description of the cold and snowy weather, it also reminds me of many nice memories and holidays with my family.

I found this passage on the 4th paragraph, of  page 129.

Paragraph 2:
In the emergency room a doctor took five stitches to close my forehead and wrapped an Ace bandage around my ankle. Steven was somewhere inside too, and I didn't even know what was happening to him.

I chose this paragraph reminds me of my mom's father , and how he was doctor who helped many people.

I found this passage on the 7th paragraph, of  page 135.

Paragraph 3:
I'd never seen anything so beautiful, so Christmasy either. Pine branches were everywhere. We'd found candles, maybe a dozen, and lighted all of them. The ornaments sparkled in the light.

I chose this paragraph reminds me of my Christmas eve with my family and friends opening gifts and having a good time.

I found this passage on the 2nd paragraph, of  page 138.

Paragraph 4:
I needed to be outside. I needed to be cold, so cold I could't think of anything but the ice and the snow. Anything, that's what the stucco woman would say.

This paragraph reminds me of situations when I was very frustrated, and needed some space away from everyone, that is why I chose it.

I found this passage on the 2nd paragraph, of  page 143.

Paragraph 5:
I wasn't laughing when I sat there. I was sitting as straight as I could, but could feel mu knees shaking.

I chose this paragraph reminds me of the terrible time I had when I was waiting results from my music school exam.

I found this passage on the 2nd paragraph, of page 144.
