He slumped down and remembered the words of his partner in crime, "Find a way out, Nabal. Find a way out." He started searching. There was a window high up, but he couldn't reach it, besides, it was way too small for him to fit in, anyways. Nabal sighed, why had he become friends with the Lee family? One of the kids, Mingmei, had gotten him into this mess. He clenched his hands into fists. The Lee family would definitely pay, especially the good for nothing Mingmei. Little did he know, that Mingmei was already having enough troubles of her own. Mingmei                The plane landed in San Jose, Oregon. Isabella headed first, her face hardened and determined, her chin high. I was sobbing in Ye Ye’s lap, with Ye Ye ...

The judge said, "I am sentencing you to jail for life." Nabal sighed in his heart, outside, he looked tough (or at least he hoped so). Three guards led him out side and into the prison, which was practically his home, since he was in there so often. Meanwhile, for the Lee family: The ride home from Japan was exhausting for the whole party. Mingmei kept excitedly jabbering about her new home over the racket of the other plane passengers. Clara and Isabella put on their earphones and privately texted each other. But even with their high-tech earphones, Ava had won for them from a competition, Mingmei’s voice could still be heard over the noise and everything.  “This is going to be soooo exciting,” Mingmei went on ranting, her calm stature seemingly fading to reveal the more exuberating side of herself, “We can all be besties, oh we’l...

Besides the 20 showers, there was also an individual shower in the bathroom that was in each bedroom. Well actually, there were three showers because you put two shower curtains in between the big and spacious shower and make it into three normal showers. That was where Isabella, Mingmei, and I were taking our showers.  After a few minutes, Mingmei stepped out of the shower. “How are you already done? We all literally just go in. I literally only just finished rinsing the shampoo out of my hair. I still have to put the conditioner on. You guys know how it takes forever for me to get all those annoying knots out of my hair.” I said  Mingmei. Mingmei smiled, rolled her eyes, and laughed. “First of all,” she said, “I have really short hair, and second of all, you were so busy smelling the blueberry shampoo. And third ...

Precious and the Mystery of Meerkat Hill by Alexander McCall Smith My rating: 5 of 5 stars View all my reviews   The Mystery of Meerkat Hill takes place in Botswana, Africa, where there are wide plains that seem to go farther than the sharpest eye could ever see, until the high and empty sky and the plains meet. There are hills that are on these plains. They are like islands in the sea. Precious and her new friends, Pontsho and Teb live there. Precious lives in a tiny house outside a village with her father, Obed. Pontsho and Teb are siblings. They live with their grandparents, aunt, and mother.

After school, Precious accompanies them to their small, and overcrowded home to meet Pontcho's “pet” meerkat, named Kosi. Pontsho tells Precious about the time when Kosi saved the siblings’ grandfa...
