On the first day of school my class lined up to go inside the classroom.
Almost everyone was wearing something new.I was wearing my new tan shirt, a brown baggy shirt over it, plaid pink and brown pants, and my new shoes.
Mr.L., the teacher I wanted, told us about the classroom all day.
We started working for the rest of the week. Every time we did work, I always finished first and always got everything right. Mr.L. made us write a report about a book we read. My report is below.
I really liked my first week of school.
Among the dolls by William Sleator
A girl called Vicky received a dollhouse for her birthday instead of the five-speed bike she was dreaming about many days before. It was an antique, and was very dusty. It came with three dolls: a mother, aunt and a sister. To complete the set, she made a father simply out of pipe cleaners and tissue paper, and bought a toddler at a store for a brother. When bad things were happening to Vicky, she would put her anger onto the dolls and make them argue and fight. The more she tortured the dolls, the more her family got tortured.
One day Vicky woke up trapped inside the dollhouse with the monsters she created. Vicky longed to get out and sometimes cried. After a while in the dollhouse with her very uninviting hosts, she started a conversation with the toddler and he told her that he was on her side. He said that he didn't enjoy living with the other dolls, just like Vicky. The toddler helped Vicky get to the attic where another dollhouse was hidden... for the dolls.
Inside it, was a mother, father, but the little girl was missing. She sticked her hand inside the tiny doll house and ended up in her real house. She went to her doll house, and ripped off the roof above the attic, and took out the tiny doll house. Right when it came out of the doollhouse, the tiny version of Vicky's house disappeared. She took the toddler out and hid it. She gave the doll house away to the little girl next door and said: " at least, she will treat them differently". She was so relieved that she was out of the horrible dollhouse!
