Dawn Chandler Book Tour







Hey everyone! Today I'm helping out my friend Eliza! She is publishing a book called Dawn Chandler, and it is amazing! She definitely has talent!  I asked her some questions and she answered as one of her characters, Moriah. Go buy her book today!

 Hre's the link to her book blurb: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vD6__z2HJR2i3xB0W_Hh5SuSS_Y1fV8hXMj8UGQWESo/edit?usp=sharing

Q: What's your inspiration to keep going in life?

A: Life's just so much fun and there are so many adventures to be had! And if I'm still breathing, God must have a purpose for me.


Q: What was your first impression from Dawn?

A: I noticed she was definitely more cityfied than me, but I knew I wanted to be friends with her! But then again, it's rare that I ever meet someone I don't want to be friends with. She was kind've quiet, but I quickly brought out her louder and competitive side. I tend to do that to people hahaah.


Q: What made you want to be friends with Dawn?

A: The fact that she's a living breathing human who's my age! Why shouldn't I want to be friends?

Q: What is your favorite part if living in Lone Pine?

A: Oh, everything! I love hiking in the Alabama Hills, raising animals in my backyard...I can't think of anything I don't like!


Q: What is your least favorite part of being homeschooled?

A: The part where I actually have to do schoolwork when I'd rather be playing outside, hahha.


Q: What is your favorite part of being homeschooled?

A: Being able to go at my own pace in each subject. If I'm really good at something, I move ahead, and if I'm not, I take my time.


I loved those answers! They definitely showed Moriah's spunky personality! Eliza's book was so real and fun, with relatable characters. Make sure you go check it out!

This is Eliza! Author Bio:
Eliza Noel is a home school graduate with passion for Jesus, people, and literature. Growing up, her favorite books were always Nancy Drew, Anne of Green Gables, and Pride and Prejudice. Around age twelve she wanted to read something with positive values in a modern setting, but couldn’t find what she was looking for. So she wrote it.

When not doing something book-related (reading, writing, blogging, bookstagramming), Eliza works at her day jobs, spends time with her many younger siblings, longboards, has coffee with friends, eats chocolate, and listens to music. California is home, but she would like to travel more and feels she could learn to be content anywhere.

1. Put away all distractions.
 Put away all your distractions. This means phones,Ipad's,tablets,kindles,and what ever distracts you. You don't want to be doing your math homework that's due the next day and your on your phone instead!

2.Take Breaks.
It is always good to take mini breaks when your doing homework or studying. If you don't take breaks, it causes more stress and frustration!

3.Reward yourself.
Yes! Reward yourself! I suggest not rewarding yourself with a movie or YouTube video until you have finished everything.

4.Grab everything you need.
Make sure you grab all your materials,snacks,water,and anything else you might need so your not constantly getting up to get things.

5.Make a To-Do List.
Trust me, this helps so much! Make sure you name specific homework or studying you have to do. For example, if you had 1-6 math homework page 1-3, write that down! It makes your homework organized!

  These are just some of the tips that I use! All these are my opinions! Thanks for reading!

The Five Best Books I Read In 2017


The Five Best Books I Read In 2017


The first book was Wish By: Barbara O'Connor

  This book is really good. Charlie gets sent to live with her aunt and uncle because her parents can't take care of her. She meets a boy named Howard who becomes her friend. She finds a stray dog who she names Wishbone. I recommend this book for 5th-7th graders. 

The second book is A Whole Lot of Lucky By: Danette Haworth
 Hailee Richardson is not the richest or poorest person. One day her dad wins the lottery! Hailee has to get used to her life without being selfish and learning who her real friends are. I recommend this book for 5-8th grade.




Real Friends By: Shannon Hale and Leuyen Pham
Shannon has one best friend. But when its time for 5th grade, her friend is hanging out with the popular group. Shannon does not know who her real friends are. To find out more you'll have to read it! I recommend this book for 4th-7th grade.
Wings of Fire By: Tui T. Sutherland 
I don't know about you, but I really love dragons! Clay and his friends are trying to get out of their cave and go find their parents. This is a really adventurous story. I recommend this for 5-8th grade maybe even 9th.

Last but not least, Kira-Kira By: Cynthia Kadohata
This a really sweet book. It is about Katie life with her sister Lynn. Katie changes when a tragic accident happens. Read it to find out more! I recommend this for 6th-9th graders.

                  This book is awesome and a little bit sad. Trent hit a hockey puck that accidentally killed one of his teammates in hockey. He is having a hard time. Then he meets Fallon Little who becomes his friend. Trent realizes he might be able to start over. WARNING: There is a cliffhanger at the end!

Universal Studios


 I went to Universal Studios with my family after we went to Disneyland. I loved the Harry Potter broom ride and roller coaster. Universal has lots of 4D rides. In Simpson's Land, we got giant donuts! We went on a tour which was super fun! I sat next to my cousin and she loved it!


The tour.

Disneyland



In October 2016, a whole bunch of people from my family went on a big trip to Disneyland. It was super fun! We spent 3 days in Disneyland, and a few other days doing other things. We went on a ton of rides, met characters, did shopping, and a princess lunch. We had a nice hotel that served breakfast. We could walk from the hotel to Disneyland.
