 * __ Characters __**
 * ** Douglas- He is the main character of this book! He dicovers all these adventures during his summer! **
 * ** Grandpa Spaulding- Douglas loves to hangout with his grandpa. His grandpa tells Douglas stories from when he was a boy. **
 * ** Tom- Tom is Douglas' friend. He hangout with Douglas a lot **

**I didn't get a chance to finish my book but what I've read is that Douglas is on his summer vacation and he wants to do all that he can before school starts again. He goes on all of the adventures with his grandpa and his best friend Tom. My favorite quote is "The first thing you learn in life is you're a fool. The last thing you learn in life is you're the same fool." I think it means that no matter how old you are, you are still the same person, from the time you are born until the time you die.**
 * __ Summary __**


 * __ Rating __**
 * I give this book a 4! It's really interesting! I think Ray Bradbury is a good author! **

**September 16, 2011-Entry 4** I read 20 more pages! The book still decribes the adventures that Douglas does during his summer! Each chapter is something new that he does! What I read, a machine caught on fire at his grandparents house and everyone came and watched the house burn down. I love this book! Ray Bradbury is an amazing writer!
 * __ Wiki Reflections __**
 * I think using wiki is really good! You get to read what other people think of a book and you can see what book is good and what you want to read. **

**September 9, 2011-Entry 3** I read 10 more pages! I really haven't had much time to read! My favorite line is "Far off in the dim moonlit country, over a viaduct and down a valley, a train rushed along whistling like a lost metal thing, nameless and running." The narrator said it. It kind of reminds me off Boone with the trains and I loved how he described how everything was!

**September 2, 2011-Entry 2** I have read 40 pages so far! One of the major characters is Douglas Spaulding. He is twelve years old and he takes each day of summer day by day. He tried to accomplish something eachday of summer, so he kind of had a summer bucket list. He enjoyed his summer very much! I think the coming chapters will tell about more of his summer and what he does!

**August 25, 2011-Entry 1** I am reading __Dandelion Wine__ by Ray Bradbury. My prediction of what will happen is that it is summer and there are kids exploring whatever they can before summer ends.
