(PG 148-156 )So far a commander named Graff wanted Valentine to send a letter to Ender explaining how she cared about him. They asked her to do this because Ender was feeling very depressed and didn't want to continue in the games and practice. This was a problem because they know he is destined for greatness, even at age 9! However, ender could tell the letter was fake, which made him feel even more alone! He knew that Valentine did send many letters, but none came in. therefore, this one must be for a reason. I’ve felt like that sometimes. When parents do things to make me feel better. Unlike Ender, they make me feel better!

Enders game part 4
PG. 138-148
It’s been three years since Ender left home to join the military. His older brother Peter has taken advantage of the only person that really mattered to him, his sister Valentine. Peter acts like a good little boy to all the parents but is still a very cold-hearted person. His parents gave him a pocketknife since he likes to walk in the woods. However, he used it to skin squirrels and watch them suffer until death :(. Ironically, Ender is now the top soldier, most respected 9 year old in the whole camp. He is not enjoying it, though. He fells very alone because no one is socializing with him like they used to. Maybe the president feels that way in public?

So now the king is going to use a group of spies to get more information about the Duke’s plans. I don’t understand why he doesn’t trust his wife. I wouldn’t marry a woman I couldn’t trust.

Enders game 3
So far Ender has been raised from a newcomer, or launchy, to the rat squadron. This group is probably the most messiest one in their bunks. However, in their game battles, they are renowned for their speed and cunning. It seems to me every time Ender is moved to a new group, the older kids( he is 10, the others are 14-17) they abuse him and tell him to stay out of the games. If i was an older kid i would not reject him. fter all, he wasn't raised a rank for no reason. The leaders must have a good reason to put him in such a group.

The Bad Case of the Tribbles
A Star Trek mini story
This is a short story of spaceship captain Kirk and some interesting furry creatures. Kirk and his crew land on a planet that will be controlled by humans or Klingons depending on which one can produce crops first. It turns out the people have found a new wheat that can only grow on this planet. At the same time, Kirk's lieutenant finds a furry creature this guy sold to her. These furry animals are called Tribbles and have an enormous appetite! In about 4 hours the entire ship is covered with the furry fiends while Kirk is trying to settle the dispute over the stolen grain. As it turns out the store house for the grain was infiltrated by the Tribbles, but they were all dead. After some analysis, the grains had been poisoned so that the nutrients would not be accepted from the body, thus creating starvation. Who would do this dastardly deed? None other than a Klingon disguised as a storehouse worker! In the end, the Klingon is set free to stop a war but the Tribbles seller is put to work cleaning the ship of the furry nuisances.

Time Cat #4
Since last entry, gareth and jason are now in old Russia when people were accusing each other as witches. not only that. they find themselves and a old lady running from a witch hunter who is actually a sorcerer himself! with the help of a big miller, they arrest him, but the 4 of them ( and gareth cat) are guilty of witch craft and have to escape on a cart into the woods. This chapter was interesting because it wasn't like the others were they find themselves in the presence of a king or powerful leader. i hope the next chapter is different, too!

timecat#3
In the last two chapters jason and gareth go to peru under the rule of pizzaro. i have noticed that when they go to a different time period, they have to teach the people they meet that cats can't be told what to do. i can tell hat the author really liked cats for this reason because it gets really repetitive. this book still grabs your attention with it's unique storyline.

Time Cat 2
So far, jason and his cat, gareth have traveled through rome, japan, ireland, and italy. What i noticed is that many of the people who are leaders in those times are taught that cats don't follow orderss and do what they want when they want. What i forgot to mention erlier is that, in the book, cats can time travel and can go 9 places in time. They also have the ability to talk. This book is a very interesting one even if you don't enjoy fantasy.
