Noah Webster was the writer of the American Dictionary of the English Language in 1828. While he was still a boy, he was like any other ordinary boy back then. He lived on a farm, had a  small house, and went to church. Unlike most boys though, he LOVED to read. I mean, he could read our house off it's foundation if he wanted to! Noah also wrote the Blue- Backed Speller. He had two sisters & three brothers.

Rebecca and the Movies   is a exciting book about a girl named Rebecca  going to a movie studio  because it's her birthday!!! Rebecca is turning ten, so her mom's cousin decided to take her to the movie studio where he works and actually gets to act in a movie! Rebecca was born in 1905, and now she is ten so now it is 1914.  The best part in it to me is when she gets to actually act in a moving picture! (You know, no sounds in the movie just exaggerating and pretending to speak in the movie.)

I like to memorize poems so I decided that I should post some on my blog, so....... here is one of my poems that I memorized.   The Jolly Miller by Robert Louis Stevenson. There was a jolly miller, lived on the river Dee. He worked and sung from morn till night no lark as blithe as he. And this is the burden of his song for ever used to be, I care for nobody--- no! Not  I, Since nobody cares for me. That's one of my favorite poems.
