For the holidays, my aunt gave me a 3-month subscription for Kiwi Co's Doodle crate.
My first crate was a faux leather portfolio bag making kit and sketch book. The bag comes in 2 precut pieces (the main bag fabric and a small pocket) with shoelace-like thread and push in bead embellishments and instructions.
After I finished putting the main bag together, I decided to only use the gold and copper push in beads to fill the holes on the top flap to make it extra stylish. Then I painted the bag using Gold Paint by Artist's Loft (not included in The Crate) to make my bag extra fashionable and more my style.
Hope you enjoy. See the photos below!

Star Rating 4/5 stars
Why?: I like this movie because it has lots of great songs and the story is full of exciting and fun parts.
Scary Scale (1-10): 2/10
Why?: One scary part is before the the movie begins in the theater, there is a raccoon short about a raccoon mother who does not let her baby go outside of the den. At one point the baby sneaks outside for long enough that she meets a wolf who wants to eat him. His mother catches her, just in time but she gets a scar and later when the baby racoon grows up, she wants to protect her baby too. I dislike it because it was sort of sad that the baby gets a scratch, and it was not connected to the movies story. I had to see it before the real movie because in the theaters they connected the two.
The scary part in the actual movie is a flashback from when Abuela was a young adult. She and Mirabel's Abuelo had to leave their home when their city gets attacked and the attacking army kills Abuelo but it is off-screen.

Star rating: 3.7/5 stars
Why?: I like this movie because there are some really funny parts like an old lady who is obsessed with condensed milk and she even distracts a dangerous sheep from attacking them by leading it away with condensed milk. Also, Clifford is a really cute and funny puppy!
Scary scale: 4 out of 10
Why?: The movie is a little bit scary because the team who wants to make giant food for money want to hurt Clifford. The team also is chasing Clifford all around New York City! Lastly, in the beginning Clifford's family is getting taken away by an animal rescue center but they leave Clifford behind by mistake. It is sad that he doesn't get to see his family again.

On the way she takes a taxi to Broadway but when she realizes she doesn't have any money, she tells the driver and he stops and throws her out of the car in front of a building. Standing in the doorway of the building is a cute little girl in a tutu who walks over to Jessie and asks if she can be her nanny. Jessie comes will the girl and learns her name is Zuri.
When Jessie reaches the apartment, she learns it is not a normal apartment but it is a penthouse and that she would be agreeing to watch three other children, Ravi Emma and Luke. She agrees to become their nanny so that she can make money until she makes enough money for a full time acting job. To be continued...
Scary Scale 2/10
Why?: Jessie is normally not scary at all but sometimes they have super intense Halloween episodes like The Ghostest with the Mostest, which is a Number 9 (!) on my scale and is way scarier than other episodes. I was super scared in that episode but overall its not scary.
Star rating: 5/5
Why?: I love this show because it is super funny and the characters are all so different and interesting.

Summary: Magical sisters Love and Death are playing chess with living chess pieces while watching the castle that Love enchanted. Death realizes she can make a bet with Love. Death's bet is if Love's spell on Beast's castle never breaks, Death wins but if Love's spell is broken, Love wins. Death hates to lose so she creates a magical and perfect world inside a book called Nevermore. Death places it in the bookshelf where Belle will find it. To be continued...
Star Rating 4/5
Why?: I like this book because it is very interesting from beginning to end. I learned a lot of interesting parts of the Beauty and the Beast story like who created the spell that turned Prince Adam into the Beast. It was fun to read the huge twists. The only things I dislike about this book is that you really need to watch the live action Beauty and the Beast movie to understand some parts of the book. I only watched the movie once so I had to think back to what happend in it a few times.
Scary Scale 4/10
Why?: This book is scary because there are a few sad times talking about people dying, even a kid, and at the end of the parts about Nevermore.

Description of Trinket: It is a medium sized snow globe with a slightly small Princess Ariel doll, Flounder the fish and some treasures in the dome. The outside of the snow globe has all kinds of surprise details like Ursula's eels and different collections, similar to what Ariel has in the movie, Disney's The Little Mermaid.
Star Rating: 9/10
Why? I love this snow globe because it is a cute version of Princess Ariel from the Disney movie. I really like the music, the tune is "Part of Your World". The only thing I dislike about this snow globe is that the Ariel figure is smaller then I expected.

Summary: Max is a kid in middle school who lives in France with his annoying sisters. He writes a journal about everything that happens in his life. The topics include what parties he's been to, what his school is like, and even what he does with his friends. It also includes fighting with bullies. If you want want to know more about Max, read My Life in Smiley.
Star rating: 4/5
Why?: This book is funny, especially the way the kid draws his point of view of things that happened. The diary style makes it feels like I know his secrets even if Max isn't real.
Scary scale 0/10
Why?: This book wasn't scary because it was silly and realistic. None of the charters die but the bullies are mean. Since the bullies are fiction, it didn't scare me.
Thank you Ms. L. for giving me this book and for being my amazing teacher.

Summary: Dorothy Gale 1ives Kansas with her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry and dear dog, Toto. Kansas is is a very sad grey place but Dorothy has Toto who makes her happy.
One day, there's a tornado but Dorothy is still in her house instead of a shelter, with only Toto to keep her company. The twister picks up her house and brings her to a strange land filled with color.
She meets The Good Witch of the North who tells her she's in Oz and that she has killed the Wicked Witch of the East by squishing her with her house. Dorothy is scared because she would never choose to kill anything, not even a wicked witch!
Even if Oz is filled with color, Dorothy wants to go home. She misses her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry. The Good Witch tells her to follow the yellow brick road. To be continued...
Star rating: 4 1/2 out of 5
Why? I liked this book because it was a exiting story about magic, friendship, and home. It is different from the movies like Oz: the Great and Powerful or the Wizard of Oz. I was surprised to find out that the Wicked Witch of the West couldn't hurt Dorothy because of a magic kiss Dorothy got from the Witch of the North. I liked that Dorothy can't get hurt even if in the movie she could. I also liked that there were parts that were in Oz: the Great and Powerful such as the Little Town of China Dolls. Instead of the dolls being broken like in the movie above, they are all ok and in one piece. Every version of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is fun but it is exiting to read the original story.
Scary scale 0-10: 0
Why? This book didn't scary me because I had heard the story many times. I had noticed that in every other version the bad guys are scarier but in this version they can't hurt Dorothy.

The children don't plan to run away with out their parents understanding why. After they leave, Claudia and Jamie send a letter explaining why they left but not where they are going.
Why? I liked this book because it was really interesting and funny because Claudia cares about Jamie's grammar a lot and corrects him.
Scary scale 0/10
Why? This book was not scary because nobody in the book is really a bad guy and .Claudia and Jamie's parents are not mean but the children don't like their normal rules.

Summary: Everyone is different and Jordan Reeves uses her difference as a super power!
She was born with a full arm and a arm that stops above the elbow. Jordan can do amazing things that most kids with full arms might have a hard time with like Adaptive CrossFit. Adaptive CrossFit is like CrossFit but slightly changed so that she could do it with her little arm.
Jordan has gone to many camps for kids with missing limbs that sound amazing and one even one camp experience helped her find her super power!
Using a 3d printer, Jordan created a unicorn horn shaped glitter shooter for kids with with little arms like hers. She calls it Project Unicorn 🦄🦄🦄🦄! Her project isn't just awesome and super fun looking, it is also good for the earth: she uses glitter that is environmental save.
That's not all! Jordan was on the Rachel Ray show and Shark tank Jr. She also got invited to one of her favorite places: Disney World. She received a Princess Innovation Award! To find out more about Jordan Reeves read Born Just Right.
Star rating 5/5
Why? I liked this book a lot because it was an interesting true story about a girl who uses her disability as a super power. She made Project Unicorn sound so fun I wish I could use it.
Scary Scale 0/10
Why? this book isn't scary because its about a girl with supporting family and friends and showing her inner sparkle✨🦄✨
Summary: Princess Cimorene of Linderwall is the youngest of 7 sisters and is not what a princess is expected to be. Cimorene is adventurous and smart unlike her sisters who are silly and proper. One day Cimorene meets a foolish prince who is as boring as the others she met before. Later, Cimorene finds out her parents have chosen for her to marry this prince.
Cimorene gets upset and would "rather get eaten by a dragon". A toad overhears her and gives her directions to where they live. When Princess Cimorene meets the dragons they decide that instead of eating her, Kazul the dragon will let her help with chores like baking and going on adventures. To find out more about their adventures, read Dealing with Dragons: The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book One.
Star rating: 5/5
Why? I loved this book because you never know what will happen next and because I had never read anything like it. It is very interesting because Cimorene meets different characters like Morwen the witch. At first I thought she would be old and not very helpful. As I kept reading, I realized she was not only young and pretty but she was also part good and bad. While she is mostly a good witch, her having both good and part parts is is different because in most stories there is usually someone only bad or only good.
Scary scale: 1/10
This book was only a very tiny bit scary because of how Cimorene has to fight many bad creatures that want to kill her but (spoiler alert!), she ends up ok in the end.
Thank you S.Y.R for showing me this awesome book and for being my amazing friend.
