  • Ivy and Beanby Julia Martin

    Do you love to read? Then you should totally go to your local library (or any library) and check out the Ivy and Bean series by Annie Barrows and Sophie Blackall. It is a funny, exciting and page-turning series that I think everyone should read.

    First of all, Ivy and Bean are hilarious. It seems as if they are always getting into some type of mischief. First they make Beans sister Nancy eat worms, then they get trapped in the attic and stowaway at a museum. Talk about trouble-makers! Ivy and Bean are so brave too. They do things I could never do! For example, putting a ghost back into the underworld by making a potion that created a portal? No way! I would be too scared.

    Next, Ivy and Bean are never bored-at least, thats what it seems. From creating a gymnastics club, to turning a dirt pile into a volcano, they always know how to have fun. Also, Ivy and Bean are so unalike, it makes the book so much better. While Ivy loves to read, Bean would rather go play in the mud.

    Finally, Ivy and Bean are exciting. All of their adventures will leave you wondering what will happen next. If you have read the series already, you know all of their adventures will leave you on the edge of your seat. They might get in trouble along the way (a LOT of trouble!) but they are still the greatest characters I know.

    I hope that after you read this book review you will read the Ivy and Bean series. As I said before, it is a funny, exciting, page-turning series that everyone needs to read.

  • A Sheepie StoryBy Eleanor Berkenblit

    This story is dedicated to my sister on her birthday, Tuesday, July 7. It is also a birthday present because I know that she loves sheep.

    Once, in a field, there were some sheep. Their shepherd was a girl named Isabel. Isabel cared about her sheep, and did not use her cane to beat them as many other shepherds did. One of her sheep, named Bluebell, asked her why. Isabel, she said, Why do you not beat us? I think that it is cruel and unfair to beat my sheep if they have done nothing wrong. replied Isabel. We appreciate your kindness, but what about Benjamin? My lamb, Benjamin, keeps running off with another herd and you do not say anything to him. I think that you should beat him to tell him not to run off. But Isabel refused, saying that surely he will stop running off with the other pack when he sees how green the grass is and how fresh the water is with her herd. The next day Benjamin was gone. The leader of the neighboring herd brought Benjamin to Isabel who thanked him. Bluebell snapped, You should not run off with other packs Benjamin. Isabel has my permission to beat you. I will not beat you, Benjamin, because surely you can see that the grass is much fresher here and the water much cleaner. And Benjamin agreed. The next day Benjamin was gone again. At noon he came home; he was munching on some half dead grass. Benjamin! You should not disappear like that! Isabel, beat him and tell him not to run off! I will not, Bluebell, because surely he can see that the grass is much fresher and the water is much cleaner. And Benjamin agreed. The next morning Benjamin was gone yet again. That evening, Benjamin wandered home. Benjamin! Why must you insist on not coming home? Beat him Isabel! I will not beat him. Benjamin, you must stay with this pack. I have cause to beat you, but I will be kind in light of your absences. There are plenty of reasons for you to stay; look at the water, the grass. And most importantly, you have your family and friends. I will not beat you, but I hope that you learned that you should stay with your family and friends no matter how much greener the grass looks on the other side.

  • Story, Part OneBy Leah Koritz

    Nobody wanted to go to school on a Monday morning, except for Lilly. She usually hated Mondays, but because it was the last day of school, it was an exception.

    The fluorescent green lighting on Lilys alarm clock showed six twenty eight: two minutes before it was supposed to go off. She closed her eyes for the last two minutes of her peace, and then woke up to her brother, Adam joyfully singing a song to her.

    Good morning, Lilly! Good morning, Lilly! Wake up! Its the last day of school! Summer is soon! Cmon, Lilly! Adam sang as she ignored him.

    Cmon! Wake up! Lilly! Now, his singing turned into screaming, and the screaming turned into fake-crying. Finally, Lilly let up.

    Okay. Fine. She threw the covers off of her. Already, her last-day-of-school-perfect-day had gotten to a bad start. Adam stopped crying as soon as Lilly stood up. All over again, he started singing the song, except, instead of wake up, it was lets go.

    Youre crazy, Adam. You dont even have any school to go to. Your school ended weeks ago. Why are you so excited?

    Kindergarten. Next year. Im excited. Adam shrugged. Ever since about a month ago, Adam had been talking nonstop about kindergarten, and how he wanted the teacher Lilly had: Mrs. Barellire. Hed also been talking about how he hoped his best friend, Jim was in his class. The only things Adam knew about kindergarten was that kindergarten was in a different school, and there were different classes, unlike his preschool. Other then that, Adam was clueless. He probably thought it was just like preschool, which it is, except for the actual learning.

    You know Adam, you have a whole summer before you start kindergarten. And also, youre not guaranteed to have Mrs. Barellire, and you also probably wont have Jim in your class. Lilly walked out the room to go brush her teeth. She felt horrible about how she was treating Adam, but the remorse she felt was tiny compared to her mood. It was funny how just one little thing made Lilly mad for the entire day.

    Lilly expected Adam to be crying, but he followed her right down the hallway. He ran in front of Lilly, causing her to stop.

    I thought about what you said, and youre right. I might not have Mrs. Barellire, but Im sure the other teachers will be good. Also, if Jim isnt in my class, Ill sneak him in. I promise. Adam said. His face was serious.

    Really, Adam? Do you really think you could sneak Jim into your class? Lilly wasnt expecting an answer, but she got one.

    Yes. Ill dress him up. Ill say theres an addition to the class. Okay? That made Lilly smile. She couldnt argue with that.

    Okay, I guess so. Adam went back to his room. Lilly got ready for the day, and went downstairs. Adam was at the table, eating breakfast.

    Im coming with you, Lilly. To school. Adam smiled with a milk mustache.

  • Who is Marina and the Diamonds?By Bennett Himmel

    Marina and the Diamonds is a singer. No, she IS NOT A BAND. She is a person named Marina Diamandis, and she sings really awesome Indie-Alt-Electro-Pop. She is my favorite singer. But you probably are not wondering where to start with listening to her. Well, too bad because youre already reading this article. [DISCLAIMER: ON ALL THESE ALBUMS, SHE DOES SWEAR. HOWEVER ONLY ONE, FROOT IS MARKED. PROCEED WITH CAUTION]Do you like really poppy music? Start with Electra Heart. A fun, poppy, story. Song pick: Primadonna. So fun!Do you have a bit of a darker seeming taste? Try The Family Jewels. A sad, identity search story. A fun sounding, bouncy music, with alt taste bleeds through, despite the poppy Hollywood. Weird? Happy but like dark sounding music? Try Froot. An album with happy lyrics, tons of 70s influences, but also dark songs, like Solitaire and Savages.

    The mystery of the missing COOKIE?By Zach Levine

    Once upon a time there was a COOKIE, the cookie was very magical, it was made of pure poop!!!!!!!!!!! Once a person named David found it he thought it was a normal cookie so he ate it

The cookie fell too and was never found again until now! then someone named Jake found it, he didnt eat it because when he was little he had, been told stories about the magical cookie. Too be continued!!!!!! dun dun dun!

    Cupcakes vs. MuffinsBy Julianna Alpert, Nicole Allen, and Meg Allen With help from Becca Winograd, Betsy Kaplan, and Nat Borromeo

    If you think that cupcakes and muffins are the same things, think again!

    From our research which was done by questioning staff and campers, we have found that cupcakes and muffins are two entirely separate delicacies. At first we thought that cupcakes were muffins but muffins were not cupcakes. We thought that cupcakes were a subcategory and the only difference was that there was frosting on the tops of cupcakes. But now we know differently. We have figured out from surveys that they are separate. Cupcakes have more sugar in them than muffins and it is not just their frosting that separates the two. Additionally, cupcakes usually have a flavoring, such as red velvet, chocolate or vanilla. Muffins may also have flavors, but not as often as in cupcakes and they usually put other foods inside the muffins. Such as chocolate chips, blueberries and coffee cake crumbs. Cupcakes, on the other hand dont usually have these items inside them. They have things on top of them. Some things that people would put on a cupcake but not a muffins are frosting, sprinkles, candies, etc those are reasons that we think that cupcakes and muffins are entirely different bakery items. But, we want to hear what you think on the topic; go to daily double during festival period and write a follow up article depending on if you agree or if you want to express your opinion and respectfully disagree! Thank you for your time, goodbye for now!

  • 10 MUST eat food when in EnglandBy Natalie Dean

    Hello lovelies! So, Ill be back for second session, but Im gonna miss a week because Ill be in England attending a wedding. Those who know me personally know that my family is from England and we go just about every year. Also those who are close to me know this will be my last year even though I am 14 because I am spending the whole summer in England. I was sitting in the Daily Double room actually thinking about my trip to London, and how excited I am to see my friends, but other than that, I was thinking of the delicious FOOD. I thought I would share with you the 10 MUST eat foods to get when in England in case any of you beauties take a trip to London, either for the first time or again!

    1. Pie and Mash with Liquor sauce; You can find this delightful dish at the oldest pie shop in London, M. Manze. The dish in a minced-beef pie and mash potatoes sprinkled with green parsley sauce. It will make your tounge sizzle in the greatest way.

    2. Bacon Butty; Bacon lovers roaming England, you can find this dish at St. John Bread and Wine. Come on, admit it, you can never go wrong with Bacon, and this british breakfast, which by the way you can make in America with simple steps, keeps you full and on your toes!

    3. Chelsea Bun; You can find this bread treat at Borough Market stall. It may not SEEM like a dessert but this buttery and sugary bread slicked with sticky sugar glaze will have you begging for more!

    4. Sticky Toffee Pudding; Dessert. Enough said? What is better than rich dark chocolate with ice cream on the top, and to spice it up, the syrup dunked around it!

    5. Cheese Toastie; Eat this for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this cheesy dish, and by cheesy, I mean cheesy, will wipe the hunger away! You can find this delight at the Borough Market. May need to run though, because everyone will be after it!!

    6. Scotch egg; again, this is another dish that would serve for either breakfast, lunch or dinner. Either Way, this eggy dish is presented also with a healthy salad, for if you were to eat it as just the egg, it wouldnt be too healthy. Find this fattening but delicious dish at Fortnum and Mason.

    7. Kippers; you can find these in any European country but the UK serves it the BEST. It is cleaned, salted and smoked and covered with butter and lemon. Find the best Kippers in Europe at The Wolseley.

    8. Roast Bone Marrow; YUMMY HUMAN BONES! Dont worry, Im kidding with ya ;). The dish has four roasted veal bones and the marrow is melted and spread around the sour dough. Find this dish at St. Johns to have your stomached filled.

    9. Potted Shrimps; I dont suggest this if you are allergic to seafood (Me and my mummy), but if you are in love with it or looking to try something new, this dish will have you satisfied, I was told by a mate.

    10. Meat Fruit; who knew the thing existed! Dont freat, its just meat and fruit combined together, but it is very good and healthy! And you can only taste this dish at Dinner by Heston Blumenthal.

    Thank you for reading this article and I hope if you ever take a trip into London, you will try either of these foods. My personal favorite is the Sticky Toffee Pudding xx

    The Files of A.R.C.H.I.V.E. Part TwoBy Casey Corcoran

    I found out that my sister had seen the men before. Technically she hadnt necessarily known them, but still. So we looked up bandana men on the internet. Just a bunch of models wearing stylish bandanas.

    Bandana men? Seriously? I asked incredulously to my sister.

    What else do you want me to call it? She asked me.

    I dont know. Let me try. I reached over and typed Rons Garden Supplies in the search bar.

    Rons Garden Center? My sister asked, confused.

    Its what it said on the the side of the van. I explained.

    It turned out it was a old garden center that was shut down because of rat infestations.

    Now why would he be driving a van that belongs to a business that was shut down? Lets go check it out!

    Im not going there! My sister yelled, disgusted.

    Take your friend, whats her name Organism? I said.Why would I take her

    there? And just for the record, thats a nickname. She clarified for me.

    A bad one. I muttered, more to myself than to her.

    So we drove to the rundown garden center.

    And were astonished and scared by what we saw.

    The same white van we saw before.

  • The great ant apocalypse of 1929By Eli Grassi

    Have you ever heard of the great ant apocalypse of 1929? Probably not most people tried to forget it and no one ever passed the story down to their children so it has been lost in history for over 94 years. But now since Im am a great spy and detective I give you . . . . . . THE GREAT ANT APOCALYPSE OF 1929!! It started as just another day everybody was doing there job to get money and so on and so on. Nobody knows where it came from or why but on that day it started raining. It doesnt sound too weird but bear with me here im trying. heres the part that makes it weird . . . there wasnt a cloud in the sky. Nobody knew why it was raining but they didnt care as long as it did not affect their lives there were cool with it. Lets just say that they werent cool with it but they didnt know that yet they still thought it was just weird rain. It wasnt. It was some sort of weird chemical that look like water, tasted like water, (and with the exception of ants) when drank acted like water. But now lets talk about the exception of ants. When ants drank the water (which for some reason they all did) It mutated them. It made them smarter than the smartest human, twice the size as the biggest human, and also remodeled their bodies so they had arms and legs and opposable thumbs! So what did the ants decide to do first with their new found power? Take revenge of course! Take revenge on the humans for stepping on them for years. The ants came charging into towns all over the world taking the humans by surprise big surprise. The humans were in shock giant smart mutated ants were attacking them, it was something out of a sci fi movie. But the humans werent stupid, they immediately acted and started open firing on them with all of their weapons. but it was not working. the bullets were bouncing off the ants new thick armored bodies. this pleased the ants. The humans didnt know what to do! the couldnt use bombs, because they didnt want start using nuclear weapons then they had an idea they could defeat them with poisonous gases! brilliant! they gave all the soldiers and humans gas masks and bio suites and big tanks of neurotoxin and told them to spray it at the ants. Quickly the ants numbers dropped until they were all gone. Except that they werent. the neurotoxin didnt kill them it just turned them back to normal ants. And thats the great ant apocalypse of 1929 thank you for your time.
