An Old Fashioned Girl, was written by Luoisa May Alcott. And it is my favorite book, And Louisa may Alcott is my favorite authoress!
The book is about a girl named Polly who lives in the country away from the city, but she visits her friend Fanny who lives in Boston for a few months, and their family is very high class. when Polly leaves their house she has a huge impact on them. Six years later she goes back to Boston to work and teach music lessons. Later she ends up marrying her friend Fannys brother named Tom. It is such a interesting book!

I just read a book called Great escapes of world War 2, it is a very good book.

The book is filled with stories of escapes form prison camps by the Germans, Australians, Americans, and Japanese. My favorite story was of a group of Americans, led by Roger Bushnell, dug three tunnels named Tom, Harry, and Dick, though in the end they only had one tunnel left.  It took a full year to dig them but they never gave up. The final escape was made in March 1944.

My Dad (who is in Kuwait) is moving to a different camp. It’s called Camp Virginia, it’s farther South so that means its safer than the other camp he was at, so that is very good! he sent us a lot of stuff from his camp because he does not need a lot of it. He will be back around July 30 but were not sure.
