Books!

Hi again!
In my previous posts I talked about my favorite sites. As I may have mentioned before, I LOVE to read.I mostly read books written by Enid Blyton (these days).
As written in my profile, one of my favorite series is a book called St. Clare's by Enid Blyton. It has nine books and I have all of them. The main characters are two girls (twins) called Pat and Isabel who live in the UK. At first they hate changing schools. But after a few weeks of going to this boarding school they start to love it. You can learn more about them in Wikipedia. You can also read them if interested.
In my next post I will write about another favorite series of books. Any guesses? Okay, here is a hint. Its also by Enid Blyton and it is a good and well known mystery book (actually series of books). Keep guessing. I will write about it in a few days. Bye readers!

Brainpop

Hi! In my last post, I talked about poptropica, one of my favorite sites. My best site to gather information besides Google is brainpop. Its URL is www.brainpop.com. Younger users (K - 3) could use brainpop junior. Its URL IS www.brainpopjr.com. Both have videos about things. There are free videos and , like most of them, you have to have an account. Brainpop features a boy named Tim, and Brainpop Jr features a girl named Anne. They are both accompanied by Moby, a robot. So, hope you have fun in this new site!

One of my favorite sites

Hi!
This time, I wanted to tell all the viewers about one of my favorite sites to play games on. One of my favorites is poptropica (www.poptropica.com) Its a free game world. First you can create a character and then take it into different worlds. These worlds are called islands. Some of them are Shrink Ray island, Early poptropica, Reality TV island, Spy island ,etc. There are up to 22 of these. After finishing one, you can also replay it. If you save your game with a username and password, your progress will be saved, and the next time you come on you just click 'retuening player' and continue. When you save your game or finish an island, you receive 'credits' (poptropican money) which you can by clothes and special features with.To buy things click the star on the top right corner. If you really like the game, you can pay money and become a member, and get extra features. The newest upcoming island is 'mystery train island', which comes for members on 9th august, and for normal players about a week or two later. Hope you like this game! Bye!
