Recall a time in your own life when you made a promise that was difficult to keep. Tell how this relates to the promise Billy made to his dogs. Do you admire Billy for his efforts to keep the promise?

Remember these postings are public. Make sure you respond to both questions above! Posted Yesterday 11:00 am When Billy made a promise in the story it was hard to keep. He said that if the dogs treed a coon he would do the rest. Once I made a promise that was hard to keep. I promised that I would take care of the cat for a month. I would get a rabbit if I did this. I was little when I made this promise. So taking care of my cat wasn't that easy for a little girl. I did keep my promise of feeding the cat and changing her litter box. Also, I had to brush her. - The Murch The murch is a creature that you would think would be affable. It actually is not very nice. this murch is an awesome animal. It loves swimming and is always craving ice cream. The murch is contemptible when he sees other animals. he always seems to detest vejetables. He likes candy better. The murch also has an enchanting girlfriend that is also a murch. The way he swims fascinates me because he can swim so fast. I loath waiting for him to finish his ice cream. He takes forever to eat it. I rave him when he does a flip because those are really hard for him to do. Last, everybody always recoils when they see his theeth. they are really white and reeeaaallllyyy sharp!!! You would die in one second if this creature chomped down on you.

By: Katie R 1.After watching the Pritchard's video clip the boys in it didn't look the same as I thought they would. I thought they would be older and look tougher. 2. In the book and in the movie there were some differences. In th book the grandpa made a bet for two dollars an in the movie he made a bet for five dollars.Also, in the book Billy came to the store on a mule and in the movie it didn't even mention a mule. 3.

I'm from the sunny ozarks with lots of streams for my dogs to run through while they are coon hunting. From, the spooky forest at night. I'm from a farm with mules that my ma and pa ride. I'm from going to the town and not liking my journey with the scary things I faced. From, killing coons with my dogs and going conn hunting all day and all night. I'm from my grandpa's store and talking to him about those nasty coons. I'm from my loving mama and pa. From, little girls that adore everything. I'm from a caring grandpa that can keep secrets. I'm from killing my own meat, warm corn bread, horehound. Yummy horehound!! From, tasting ice cold cherry soda from town. From, caring and courage. From, a loving warm heart and sensitive feelings. I'm from dogs that never give up!

By: Katie R From, little kids from elementary school. I'm from Diary of a Wimpy Kid. I'm from letting my mind go wild when I'm writing. From, country music. I'm from, fun movies that I watch with my friends and family late at night. From, backpack hooks to lockers. I'm from walking to church early in the morning. From, my my mom's family, riding four wheelers at the dessert in open grass. I'm from, ice cream, whip cream, and sweets. The cold Dr. Pepper hitting the inside of my dry, hot mouth. I'm from warm pasta right out of the cooking pot. From my dad's family, funny and understanding. I'm from the beautiful state of Oregon. By: Katie || My favorite place is the beach in Texas. When I get there it smells like the hot sand mixed with cold refreshing salt water. It makes me feel happy and excited inside. It feels like what summer should feel like. The smooth dry sand feels dusty and the damp wet sand feels slimy. I like the feeling of the slimy sand sink into my skin when I walk into the water!! The beach tastes like humid air clogging up my mouth, and fish we catch and eat for dinner.The fish tastes bitter and tangy. Although I hate fish, but my brother loves fish. It looks like beautiful blue waves crashing down. The waves roar all day long. I adore the sound of the waves crashing on the shore when I'm in my bed at night. People are always riding the humongous waves. The sight of the beach when I see it always makes my heart jump, I see crabs waddling across the sand trying to get into the water. I want to go and jump into the clear blue water. When I go down to the beach in my swimsuit I hear little kids laughing and segals screeching. The beach is my favorite place to go because whenever I go I always have a wonderful time. I love the beach. --
