The Alchemist

This week in class I read the book The Alchemist.  Characters Josh and Sophie meet monsters and miniature men, rats and deadly birds as they venture with the immortal Nicolas Flamel.  Doctor Dee and his mud men now have the book of Abraham and Mage.  But lucky for Nickolas, Sophie and Josh, they have the last two pages of the book, the final summoning.
            My favorite character among the lot is Sophie, who is smart, kind and curious like her twin, Josh.  How Sophie acts makes me think of how another person would act.  Sophie does encounter mud men and magic people but who knows what’s out there.  Sophie has some things that I think you could make better, but I think that how the Author (Michael Scott) made Sophie curious and adventurous, was a smart thing to do.  Especially since Sophie and her brother go on such and exciting adventure.  I think that Sophie is important to the story because she has the cell phone that calls the breeze.  You’ll know what I mean when you read the story… if you do that is.
            Well, I hope you like the book when you read it!
                        Yours,
                                    Emma ; )
