Dear Mrs. Zrhen

 I am reading a book called Hellen Keller my life. It is about Hellen Keller a girl who was born blind and deaf from a illness. Her life was hard she couldn't read or talk once she was about 10 years old. But before then she learned many things about the world. She could only write at the time. She was born on June 27, 1880 in Tuscumbia, a little town in  northern Alabama. She was one of the 2 children in her family.

Hellen Keller had a teacher named Mrs. Sulliven who was here teacher who taught her how to read and talk. She had many blind and deaf  friends in her school. She spent the winnter in New England in a cabin. She would describe how called the snow was and how bright the sun was.
Sadly Hellen Keller died in 1968. She was buried in National Cathedral in Washington D.C.

B-24 combat mission's
1/25/12


 Dear Mrs Zrhen:

 My book for this week is B-24 Combat Missions. It is about the missions of the B-24 Liberator Bombers.
In this book It tells a lot of cool facts like the pilots,radioman,and machine gunners. It also has cool facts about how they painted the pilots bombers and how they set it up in ready for a mission. Plus it cool pictures of the plane it self.

The sad part was when they had pictures of shot down planes. Some where ripped in half in the air, others where burning on the ground with the pilots still trapped inside. All in all I recommend this book to people who like ww2 bombers and history.

Dear Mrs Zrhen:

I am reading a book called 50 aircraft that changed the world. It is about important planes of the century that changed the world dramatically. Some aircraft's included the B-17 Flying Fortress, Douglas DC-3,and the Messerschmitt Me 262.

 The B-17 was one one of the best bombers that the Americans had during ww2. The Douglas Dc-3 used to be a airliner plane but in the start of ww2 it was used to parachute over enemy lines or for supply's but after ww2 it became a airliner again and, it still fly's today. The Messerschmitt was the first fighter jet used in ww2 by the Nazies. It was a really fast and good plane that shot everything down like flys.

Your friend ,
