DOING MORE STUFF!!!!

Hey guys lately I haven't been active on here,I apologize sincerely.
So I am going to try and write on here at least once a week possibly on Thursdays or Fridays,maybe some book reviews here and there and just things that have been going on in the house.

So this is whats been going on in the house.I've started playing a new game!.I know its not new or anything but I've only started playing it recently it is.....MINECRAFT.Yes I do play on servers,many actually,but here's a link to one of my main ones I play on,Click on the link right here -> http://mcau.org/.
My username is(Stompylongbeak),but I'm usually on MCAU,but might not be sometimes.If you actually do join the server then put you'r name in the comments section below,and if I see you I'll message you or something.And if you really like the server you can donate some money to the server and get awesome stuff!!(Read this if your a Minecraft NERD,You can get things like DIAMOND tools,Exp to enchant your stuff and best of all!!...TELEPORTATION!!!)

I really enjoy this server because the people and admins are very nice,BUT there are some people that will grief your house if its not protected and troll you,This server also has chest protection,so if you do get griefed all you have to do is re-build your house.

Little book review

 The fire within
Chris’dlacy
When I started reading this book I was like this is your usual book, but after that stage I was so submergered in this book I didn't want to leave it alone  it was almost like sinking in quick sand just not the real feeling of sand over my body. I've never really been into dragons but this book just changes my perspective of dragons, This book also told me more about their personalities too like they aren’t all mean or they love the snow and will sit on a window sill for hours watching  until it stops snowing.

Ok so this book is about a kid in collage and he’s a tenant (which is a person who rents to stay with people)So as a welcoming gift Liz the mum of the penny kettle family gives David a Welcoming gift.A dragon but this dragon is no ordinary dragon,it’s a real one,yes a fire breathing dragon,but this isn't what one your thinking about it’s a writing dragon, like a helper not a ferocious dragon. Through this dragon David has a connection to Liz and Lucy (Lucy is Liz’s daughter) Something is fishy with these two though,whenever Lucy goes to say the y’know what mum? Liz just cuts her off though, so David does a bit of searching for himself and finds something called the dragons den.what will David find out? Is he living in a house full of phycos?Has David dug too deep?Is there a secret about the Pennykettles in the so called “dragons den”?



Find out in my next review,byyeee!!!

Ralph and the motorcycle

Ralph and the motorcycle by Beverly Cleary
When this book started it was boring but when you get in further you will love this book!There,s so much action and adventure ,this book is about a mouse that is growing up and falls in love with a motorbike that a boy called Keith brings to the hotel,Ralph must get his hands on this machine.Join Ralph on his adventures,dangerous ones too.This book had me sitting on the edge if my seat also Beverly Cleary has other series I loved those too you can get these of amazon.Back to the story,in this book Ralph adventure is going to the out side world were owls hunt the night and cats prowl about in the day,Ralph actually encounters a cat, but not what he expects,he is being explained as a toy for cats not food and gets thrown and caught, but none of the kittens are listening,I recommend this to 7+.


The Mouse and the Motorcycle (Ralph S. Mouse, #1)
Author bio
Beverly Cleary was born in McMinnville, Oregon, and lived on a farm in Yam hill, a town so small it had no library. Her mother arranged with the State Library to have books sent to Yam hill and acted as librarian in a lodge room upstairs over a bank. There, Beverly learned to love books.
A Struggling Reader
When the family moved to Portland, where Beverly attended grammar school and high school, she soon found herself in the low reading circle, an experience that has given her sympathy for the problems of struggling readers. By the third grade she had conquered reading and spent much of her childhood either with books or on her way to and from the public library. Before long her school librarian suggested that she write books for children when she grew up. The idea appealed to her, and she decided that someday she would write the books she longed to read, but was unable to find on the library shelves — funny stories about her neighborhood and the sort of children she knew.
Career Path
After graduation from junior college in Ontario, California, and the University of California at Berkeley, Beverly entered the School of Librarianship at the University of Washington, Seattle. There she specialized in library work with children. She was the children's librarian in Yakima, Washington, until she married Clarence Cleary and moved to California. The Cleary's are the parents of twins, now grown.
Advice to Children
Beverly's hobbies are travel and needlework. When children ask Beverly where she finds her ideas, she replies, “From my own experience and from the world around me.” Henry Huggins, written when she was in her early thirties, was her first attempt at writing. Her advice to the many children who write asking for “tips” on writing is for them to read widely while growing up, and when the time comes for them to write, they will find their own way of writing and will not need tips to guide them.

Encyclopedia brown

      Encyclopedia brown keeps the peace
                                                                                          By Donald J. Sobol
Meet Leroy brown,he is called encyclopedia for a reason.He knows nearly every fact of the world.Also, Iddaville has a big secret,Leroy is their best detective.Yes a 12 year old boy.Leroy solves lots of cases with his dad.He is chief of the police.When its summer and school ends encyclopedia puts a poster up that says 25c plus expenses no case too  small 13 rover avenue brown detective agency. Usually encyclopedia is stopping bugs meany and his tigers from tricking little kids for money or just scams. Sometimes he solves just crimes like if someone stole a tooth collection.I recommend this book to kids who like mystery books.                                    author bio
Donald J. Sobol was the author of the popular Encyclopedia Brown children's book series, featuring amateur sleuth Leroy "Encyclopedia" Brown. Sobol wrote the first book in 1963. The series went on to become a staple in classrooms and children's libraries across the country. It has been translated into 12 languages and has sold millions of copies worldwide. 2013 will mark the 50th anniversary of the Encyclopedia Brown series. Sobol's latest Encyclopedia Brown adventure, ENCYCLOPEDIA BROWN AND THE CASE OF THE SOCCER SCHEME, will be published in October 2012.


Sobol was born in New York City in 1924. He served in the Army Corps of Engineers during WWII. After the war he began his career as a copywriter at the New York Sun, where he eventually worked his way up to reporter. Sobol began writing mysteries in 1957. The idea for Encyclopedia Brown came to him when he was researching an article at the New York Public Library and a game book was handed to him in error by a desk clerk. The book had puzzles on one side of the page and solutions on the other. He thought why not write a mystery series with the same sort of premise. The Encyclopedia Brownbooks would eventually earn him an Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America in 1976. Sobol authored more than 80 books.
Sobol passed away on July 11, 2012 at the age of 87. He is survived by his wife, Rose; a sister, Helen; three children, Diane, Eric and John; and four grandchildren, Gregory, Bryan, Lauren and Nicholas.

Ramona the pest

                                                                 Ramona the pest
                                                                 By Beverly Cleary
Ramona is very annoying and she likes to be center of attention,and makes lots of noise. Miss Binney's  the best teacher ever in Ramonas eyes,and doesn't say words so kids understand her.
This book is an ordinary book in our times now.In this book very exited because today's her first day of prep.Also shes exited for Halloween and dresses up as a witch.Ramona thinks her teacher doesn't like her after trying to teach Davy how to write d's,Will her teacher forgive Ramona?My favorite part of this book was when Howie pulled the wheel off Ramona's trike so it was a two wheeler.
This book is really enjoyable.I think that the books of this series are too short.
I recommend this book to 7 year old's and up your garrenteed to love this book because its just a good book.
