I give it a 3 because it was enjoyable and short and easy to read. Easy language to understand for a young one, but still very well written that an adult could enjoy it. So, I have to say that even though I hate horror now as an adult, and don’t find this book particuarly scary, it truly must have been for a ten year old kid! It is kind of gory. But for now, I will read a few Goosebumps on the side. But I will try to stick to one book again after I am done with Gemina (the second book in the Illuminae Files series which is also a hardcover). I decided that I would read easy books on the side so I wouldn’t get confused or don’t understand as well. But that was many years ago, and now when I am reading a big hardcover book (Illuminae by Amie Kaufman) which I unfortunately can’t bring everywhere, I am for the first time ever, reading two books at the same time. Stines entries in the Fear Street series, Lights Out, features a camp called Camp Nightwing that is one point called Camp Nightmare. I enjoyed horror movies and Stephen King eventually became my newest favorite author. I read a few books, watched the TV series every now and then when visiting a friend who had the right TV channel. When I was a kid, I loved Stine’s Goosebumps. But these creepy new friends are not exactly what their parents had in mind. And the town of Dark Falls is pretty strange, too. Amanda and Josh think the old house they have just moved into is weird.

I trust anything that is published by Bethlehem Books and Ignatius Press. I have relied heavily on Catholic bookshops and publishers that I trust - especially for the books for older children and young adults. I have not read many of the books on the list. I have compiled the list from various sources, including some books that I have. Many times I have found reviews written by Catholic homeschooling mothers who point out exactly what I want to know about the books I'm going to hand to my children (or NOT, as the case often turns out to be). Whenever someone recommends a book to me, I go straight to Amazon and read the one and two star reviews. I am also alarmed by the fact that too many parents do not have a clue about what their children are reading. I am distressed by the books that young children are required to read in schools. Much of the content of children's literature these days is filled with what I call poison for their young and impressionable minds. I believe wholeheartedly, with Michael D O'Brien, author of " A Landscape With Dragons", when he calls the children's literature scene a battle for our children's minds. I have a keen interest in children's literature. I am a homeschooling mother of four children. (Catholic Online) - I am not a teacher by profession and neither am I an expert on children's literature.

If you look at the description of photography it means "writing with light," so I guess it's a combination of capturing a moment at the right speed at the right composition - different elements come into it.ĬNN: On an emotional level, what can a photograph make you feel? This has influenced my work a lot - I usually try to make my images look like they just exist, like no effort was put into it. My favorite type of photography - apart from fashion photography - is journalism, which in a way documents something that exists in a very precise moment, that didn't exist in a moment before and will not exist ever again. In fine art you see this in a different way because usually what you see isn't always what (the photographer) is trying to say. Photography conveys either a moment or emotion - it documents something. Testino: It depends what sort of photography you are talking about. Here, in extracts from his interviews with CNN, he talks about the power of photography, his South American roots and the 1997 images he took of Diana, Princess of Wales. (CNN) - Peru-born Mario Testino is one of the world's most sought-after fashion photographers. |
