Valerie Barnes is your typical 13 year old. Except for one thing. She's in the 4th grade. Her totally oblivious mom can't see her side of the story, and she's fed up. Finally after a whole lot of acting skills, she convinced her mom to move, so she can start on a fresh plate, and perhaps start the 8th grade, the grade she's supposed to be in. But over the summer, her mom decideds to enroll her in a summer school. And she can't go to 8th grade, unless she learns all 5th grade, 6th grade, and 7th grade concepts. Now how is she supposed to do that in one summer?!

My Summer of Writing and Stuff
The summer of my 5th grade year, my mum made me and my sisters type a page of something everyday. She didn't care what we typed, as long as we were writing and creating something. At first, I saw it as torture, so I tried so leave as many spaces as possible in my writing to fill up the pages faster. Eventually, I started to enjoy writing the stories, and now that I look back at them (as much as I hate to admit it) it actually wasn't that bad. This book contains everything I wrote during that time, and I didn't change a single word as I transferred the stories from my computer. There aren't as many stories as you would think, because I didn't write for the entire summer, but there's quite a few. Some are short stories while others are longer, but I hope you enjoy all of them. It's quite a mess, really. And I'm not joking when I say that. (I used the Canva app to create the cover. All photos, except from my drawing in the first part, are from Pixabay.)Complete
