Samantha's Ocean Liner Adventure!

Hi everybody!!!

Today, I am going to do another book review!

Samantha's Ocean Liner Adventure

The Cover :D

Nellie, Bridget, and Jenney give Samantha a scrapbook, so she can write all about what about a ship is like.

The Fashions :)

Samantha gets to visit the captain of the SS Londonia!

This book tells all about what a ship would have been like back then in 1906. There are many interesting facts about the ship like what the rooms were like, the food, gardens, the fashions, etc. I like this book and I give it an A+!

This book is retired not, but you can find it on the Amazon website!

Hope you enjoyed reading my book review!

I have some other fun posts planned for the weekend too! I have a three day weekend and I finished four out of six exams at school, so I have some more time to post!

Felicity Just For Fun Book Review! And a Discovery!

Hi everyone!

I recently went to Borders Bookstore and got the Felicity Just For Fun Book! But before I give you the book review, I wanted to tell you all something. I had noticed that at my particular Borders, the AG section seemed to be getting smaller and smaller each time I went. There were fewer AG things each time I went. However this last time I went to Borders, there was a HUGE section of AG books/things!!! Can you guess what Borders is now selling from the American Girl Line??!??? THE AMERICAN GIRL CRAFTS!!!! So, go to Borders because there is a lot of cool AG crafts there! Now for the book review:

The front cover. :)

And... here is a sneak peak inside the book!

(Sorry, I forgot to turn the flash off.)

It comes with a page of bookmarks! I thought that was cool!

This book has tons of puzzles, activities, recipies, games, crafts, stickers, and much more inside! It was $12.95 at Borders, which I thought was a little expensive for this book. But you can use coupons from Borders if you get them. I give this book an A+! I highly recommend it!

I'm planning to get Felicity's Tea Lesson Gown before she retires too! I also really want to get Elizabeth! ;)

Are you getting any of Felicity's things before she retires? Do you have this book? Do you like it?

Also, PLEASE check back soon because I have some FUN Halloween related posts coming your way VERY SOON! :D

A Nice Package on a Rainy Day!

A few days ago when it was raining really hard, the mailman came up our driveway in his little car. Usually when the mailman comes up our driveway, he has a package to deliver, which doesn't fit in the mailbox! Sure enough there was a package addressed to me from Leah from All Things American Girl! I opened it and... inside was... the Kit's World book from her giveaway!!!! :) THANK YOU SO MUCH LEAH!!!! :)

It has two pictures on the cover which you can choose from by sliding the little flap next to it.

 

This book is so neat! It even has a little mini checkerboard in it!

It's really fun to read and look at too! :D

Thank you very much, Leah!!!!! I LOVE the book!

Do any of you have this book?

Favorite Book Scenes- Pride and Prejudice

Hi everyone! :)

I recently took some pictures of Rebecca and Charlotte portraying similar scenes from the book Pride and Prejudice. I took them for AGC Round 3, My Favorite Book. Charlotte's favorite book is Pride and Prejudice. In these scenes, Charlotte is Jane and Rebecca is Elizabeth. It took me several tries to get the picture just right.

Here are my attempts until I got it just right.

1st Try

The book is falling down. It took me three more tries before I got the book to stay.

4th Try

PERFECT!

Rebecca (Elizabeth) is holding a flower and Charlotte (Jane) is holding a letter from Mr. Bingley.

It was very difficult to get the dolls to stay standing up, so I put a doll stand behind them both, so they'd stay up. I also got about 14 bug bites while I was doing these pictures. LOL

Have you read Pride and Prejudice or seen the movie? I read it this year and school and watched the movie too.

Also, I have a very big surprise planned for you all, it will hopefully be up tonight or tommorow!!! But right now it's a secret! :)
