ENDANGERED SPECIES


The endangered species that I want to learn more about is monkeys.This endangered species lives in the rain forest.These species are endangered because when people cut down the trees in the rain forest the monkeys and other species loose their habitat and there is food on the trees and when they cut down the trees its not only bad for the animals it is also bad for people because the trees produce oxygen.I do not know how many monkeys there are now but I'm sure that there is very little.We can help save the rain forest by not cutting down the trees in the rain forest.It makes me sad because when animals are dying and when the trees are being cut down.

BOOK REPORT




The book that I decided to do a report on is called"The Lost Boy.This book is about a young boy named David,but has always been called"It.David was only 9 years old.He slept in the garage on the floor.He was always hungry,he would still food from school and sometimes if he was lucky the mother would feed him left over scraps from dinner,but the weekends was worse if there was no school there was no food for him to eat.The mother would not let him talk or move without her permission and if he did she would beat him.Then on night the mother and his dad was arguing because the dad thought the mother treated him bad,then the mother told David"If I treat you so badly then you can leave this house!"Then David left out the house.As he was walking along the dark,cold street he heard his mother's station wagon coming down the street looking for him,so he ran and hid behind a car.Then the next day a police officer found him and took him to the police station and asked him what happened.David got sent to a foster home until his court date.The mother and his foster mother"aunt Mary" had a meeting about David .The the mother told David "you have not got away with letting the family secret out.Then a few weeks later David tried to tell the people that it was all a lie that he would run into door knobs and stab himself.They asked him why would he say these things about himself and he said that he just wanted to make things right.On the court day the judge asked David if he wanted to become a permanent wart of the court which means did he want to live in a foster home or did he want to go and live back with the mother and his brothers.David thought about it and said that he wanted to continue to live at his new foster home.After court was over David gave his mother a note saying that he was sorry for doing what he did.The mother walked away crying,and got his things from the car and gave it to him.As the mother was leaving David said good bye and the mother was the only one who returned the favor.David felt as if the mother was giving him away but he was also glad that he was free.I would recommend some one to read this book because it is a good book and it is also interesting.
