The Giant and the Trees

By: Russell Evans

There is a giant named Lumber, Cardinals named Mr. and Mrs. Red, squirrels named Mr. and Mrs. Nutty, raccoons named Mr. and Mrs. Bandit, and bunnies named Mr. and Mrs. White. They live in a scarred burnt down forest.

Lumber is trying to get out of the ground where he sleeps and help everyone. The animals lost their homes because the trees burned down. Lumber wants to plant trees. He is trying to stop pollution and help the animal’s environment. Lumber is walking when he finds a burnt down forest.

Lumber is walking around when a Cardinal named Mr. Red tells him that he and his family need a home and that someone threw a cigarette and it ignited a forest fire. Lumber plants a Birch tree and carves a home for the Cardinal. Then a squirrel named Mrs. Nutty tells him that she and her family need a home and food. Lumber plants 3 acorn trees and 1 Sour Maple. Then a raccoon named Mr. Bandit said he and his family needs a home. Lumber planted 2 Pine trees. He also planted 1 Spruce for a bunny named Mrs. White.

Lumber is a nice giant and he likes nature and making people laugh. He helps all animals by planting trees. He wants the environment to be healthy. He made sure that there was no more pollution and that there would be no more forest fires.

The animals all have homes all because of Lumber’s help. The animals do not need any more help, so Lumber goes back to sleep. He will wake up again when the animals need his help.

I finished the book Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. In the book the third task ends up going wrong and Voldemort ends up rising back to power. Cedric Diggery  gets murdered by Voldemort and Mr. and Mrs. Diggery give Harry the Triwizard  cup. I think of  Voldemort coming back as a scary thing because I don’t want any of my favorite characters to die.  The task with the dragon is something  I’d never want to do in my life.

I’m reading the book Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. In the book, Ron invited Harry and Hermione over and they all went to the World Cup. After the world cup, in the middle of the night, some Wizards start making Muggles (non magic people) levitate in mid air and the Wizards also start destroying the tents.  When they get to Hogwarts, the new defense against the Dark Arts teacher ends up being Mad Eye Moody.  This far my favorite part is when they went to the World Cup.

I finished Lance the Civil War dog and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. I really liked Lance because he is a smart dog that wants to protect his family. I liked when Lance said both sides smell the same. The good on the Confederates side was Lances family and the bad was Miss. Jennie who was mean to Lance and the wounded Union soldiers. The good on the Union side was General Custer who was nice to Lance and didn’t let his soldiers burn the town. The bad was the soldier shaking the live chicken very hard by it’s legs and the ones who stole belongings from the people. The prisoner of Azkaban had a very good ending with the Dementers which were cool.  I  like the time travel because they were able to save Buckbeak and Sirius Black.  I also liked when Harry learns about his God father and more about his parents death. I think that both books have amazing endings.
