Emily has started a blog

Emily wanted to start blogging and I thought it would be a good way for her to keep a journal. Her first entry was a book review - I guess she was inspired by Sean. Here is a copy.

The Secret Garden

By Frances Hodgson Burnett

Mary Lennox is a young, ugly and selfish child who lives in India when her parents die from a disease. She is then sent to live with her uncle at Misselthwaite Manor. While she is there, she finds a secret garden that belonged to her passed aunt. She also finds her sick cousin Colin and helps him find the strength to walk.

 I liked this book because it had some of my favorite things. Gardens, animals, friends, and a few secrets. It also showed me that all you need is friends to have a good life.
