The well loved Twilight series got a huge amount of who refused to read books over 100 pages actually read them and enjoyed it! People who loved to read had to read it again. With so many people reading the series have felt as though something was missing. When they had finished reading Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse, they felt as though there was more to come there is, a lot more.

Spring feels like wind blowing through my hair,
Oh, how fresh the air!
Spring looks like clear skies,
as far as I can see with my eyes.
Spring smells like grass that’s wet,
the wind catching it, just like a net.
Spring sounds like birds chirping in the trees,
On and on, like the waves of the sea.
The Pendragon series are popular fantasy/adventure story books. The first book in the series is, "The Merchant of Death". It's about a boy who travels through time and space and enters new worlds. I'd give this book two thumbs up! At the end of each chapter is something new and exciting that keeps you hooked on through the next chapter. Bobby Pendragon had a great normal life until he found out that he has to save people in other worlds.

There’s a door, it’s always there, but it’s always locked. It’s near the greenhouse at Merlin’s Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The door must hold something so secret that could change the way we live.
The next day when I woke up I went to my dresser and my mouth dropped open! On my dresser was a velvet pillow with a sparkling gold key. “Emily! Look at this, over here,” I said. As my witch friend Emily tip-toed over, she said “what do you want?”

It starts with an S
And ends with a G,
There are lots of letters in between
They told me to write
But now I am lost,
So here is something: the something poem!

When I look into your eyes,
I’m lost in the deep sea of blue
The twinkle that they always have,
That certain animation.
The way your perfect red lips pucker,
When you have something on your mind.
Your brilliant teeth blind me when you smile.
The happiness you always seem to have inspires me.
It makes me wonder,
And sets my mind off on an expedition!

When the sun stops shining,
And the light ceases to exist,
You look to me to light up your world,
You look to me for trust and hope,
Hope for a peaceful world,
A world unlike this one,
Completely submerged in darkness.
You look to me to light up your world,
To give you things unimaginable,
Unimaginable, and at times, simply impossible.

As I float on up to heaven
Merrily on my way
Remember all the good I did
Every single great day.
Remember how I will always love you,
No matter the crime you commit
I’ll love you for eternity
You’re my lighthouse, always lit.
You were always there for me
To help guide me on my merry way,
Up, up, up to my heaven.

Slippery ice
Nowhere to go
Out looking for help
While blocking the snow
Searching for warmth
Too much wind
Oblivious to the cold
Running for cover
Made it at last!
