The Never Girls In a Blink-Review by Emma Mabery

by: Kiki Thorpe illustrated by: Jana Christy

I'm starting this new book. I picked it out because it is just the right reading level for me. I liked it because the main place in the story is Neverland and that's where Tinker Bell and her friends live.

The characters that are in the book are Gabby, Mia, Kate and Lainey.  In Pixie Hollow, where the fairies live, they call the humans "Clumsies." The fairies in the book are Tinker Bell, Prilla, and Queen Clarion.

I'm in the middle of the book, after Prilla showed the girls Pixie Hollow, they slept in hammocks.  When they woke up it was their last day there.  So Tinker Bell asked them what they would like to do. The girls said they all wanted to fly.  So the fairies all agreed and taught them how to fly.  Each girl was given pixie dust to fly.  Kate kept falling down and it made all the other girls fall down.  Mia was very scared and held onto a branch.  This caused the girls to all fall because the girls stopped thinking happy things but Gabby was still doing somersaults, and finally she fell down.

At the end of the book, Prilla blinked to make the girls go home.  But...it didn't work.  So this means the girls are still in Neverland. This is the first book in a series so I know they have lots of adventures left. 

I would like to give The Never Girls in a blink five stars.  I think people who like fairies and adventures would enjoy this book.  I am planning on reading The Never Girls the Space Between soon

How to make an American Girl Sleeping Bag


First you pick out your fabric and then you cut it.  You cut the fabric into a rectangle.  Then you sew the side and bottom.  Last you sew the top of the sleeping bag.

American Girl Doll School


This is my second stop motion video. It's about American Girl Dolls Isabelle and Anna and their time at school.  At school they do reading and writing everyday. In my movie I worked really hard with my sister Emma.  I made a few errors because me and my sister were in some of the shots.  I am going to make more videos and would love to see your comments.  Enjoy watching my video.


Adventures of a Vacation


Here's my second stop motion video.  I worked very hard on it.  I ran into a few problems and some of the pictures might be blurry.  That is something I am going to work on for my third video.  Enjoy Christina, Mia, and Olivia's adventures.  I love to see your comments. Adventures of a Vacation

Stop Motion Movie


This summer we are making stop motion movies.  "Stop motion movies are things that go fast or slow" said Jordan.  "I made a stop motion LEGO movie. We took pictures of every piece we put on our board.  Then we made it into a video in iMotion HD and added music. Finally, I put it on Youtube," said Emma.  These videos took us two days to make.  Have fun watching them and we will be adding more videos all summer long!
