Book Reviews

This book is about Molly and Matthew. Matthew and Molly snuck out of the house and pretended to ride horses. The horses got up and stretched. Then the horses pranced and ran fast. The horses jumped a fence. They slowly walked down the hill and a train came. The horses went home and Matthew and Molly went to bed and were asleep very soon.

The story is about two kids. Their names are Matthew and Molly. They went outside and built snow horses. Then the snow horses turned real then they ride on them. When they rode they saw the morning train then they went home and went to bed.

by David T.

Molly and Matthew made snow horses outside in the snow. Just when they were going to on the horses, Mollly and Matthew were called for supper. They stood together and looked out the window. That night they went outside and climbed on the horses. The horses moved their heads and came to life. The horses raced. Molly saw something at the end of the field. It was a high fence. The horses raced with lightening speed and jumped over the fence. Molly, Matt and the horses went back home. Molly and Matthew tiptoed up their rooms and went to sleep.

The story is about to characters named Matthew and Molly. They made two snow horses and then they went to bed and snuck a ride on the snow horses. The snow horses took them all over. They cantered and galloped. They even saw the morning train. Then they went to bed.

Poetry

Horses of all kinds
Some horses are black, some horses are white.
Do you like horses?

by Marissa T.

Roses are red, violets are blue.
I love horses, so do you.
Some horses are black, some are white.
In this story we read,
Molly and Matthew were in bed.
The horses slowed down and Molly and Matthew came around.
They tiptoed to bed and fell asleep
Before you can say red.

by Leyla S.

Different Horses
White horses, black horses. Black and white horses.
All different horses.
All the horses are my favorite!
Big horses, little horses,
I love horses.

Do you like horses?
Matthew and Molly built a snow horse, soon the horses
swung ahead, Molly and Matthew were soon in bed.

I like them, Maybe you know a couple of things about horses.
Maybe you don't.
But I know a couple of things.
I know that horses can be black or white. Some are fat, some are thin.
Some can run, some can gallop.
That is a all I know about
horses!

The children put the horses in the garage. The next day Matthew and Molly rode the horses until they were called in for dinner. No one found out about the ride, because they only rode them at night. They named the horses Cody and Lilly. They rode the horses every single night and fed them, too. They never told anyone about their horses, not even their mom or dad.
