By Jennifer Chambliss Bertman
350 pages

Emily has not ever lived in one place for all that long, with her family on a mission to live in all the states of America. Now she is in San Francisco, where her hero, Garrison Griswold, creator of Book Scavenger, lives. She feels like, if she could, she would call San Francisco home. Then, she discovers a mysterious book, which she believed was part of Mr. Griswold’s next book challenge. But other people want the book too, and the challenge is beginning to become more and more dangerous…

This was a really good book, and I enjoyed it a lot. I give it a 9/10 rating, and recommend to any fans of reading!

Presenting my M.P. Challenge

Are you wondering how I’ve decided to present my Bohally Maximising Potential Challenge? Well guess what, you’re reading it right now! This website, among other purposes, was created to catalog everything I’ve done for the M.P. Challenge. In fact, presenting it is one of the tasks of the challenge. So here it is, the M.P.

The Halfmen of O

By Maurice Gee
186 pages

Things change for Susan and Nick, who had lived relatively normal lives, apart from a strange birthmark on Susans wrist, with two interlocking parts shaped like teardrops, one part red, the other brown. They are summoned to the planet O, where man has ruined the planet, and torn themselves in half, good and evil. Led by Otis Claw, the cruel halfmen wish to take over O, and Earth. Can Susan and Nick stop them, or will they fail, as Otis Claw wishes?

This was a super good book, and I can’t wait to read the next one! I give it a 10/10, and recommend it to literally anyone who can read!

Helping out in the Community

This year at Bohally Intermediate, we have a challenge called the M.P. Challenge, for which we have to do different tasks to be completed by the end of the year. One of those tasks is 8 hrs work in the community.

I got a golden opportunity when Linda, my music teacher, made me a leader of a group at Theory Club. Theory Club is a music group, where we do musical theory, and play games linked to music. This helps young musicians to become better at music, in a fun way! We spend 45 mins doing theory, then 30 mins doing games!

I help by assisting the kids in my group with anything they are unsure about, and making sure they are having fun, and that they understand what to do.

I have been a leader now for 16 sessions, meaning that in total, I have spent 8 hours being a leader at Theory Club! I have helped out the members of my group, and led us to victory in many group contests.

The truth is, I hadn’t actually enjoyed Theory Club that much, prior to being a leader of a team. Then, once we started doing group activities, and I started leading one of those groups, it motivated me to continue attending, and I actually really enjoyed it. I am glad to be a member of Theory Club, and hope to continue doing it in the future!
