I Would Take Winn-Dixie Any Day Over This

Me and Emily made a deal. I promised her I would read a book of hers if she read one of mine. I picked one of my favorites Fever 1793 for her to read. And she picked The Tale of Despereaux for me to read. Let me just say this. About four or five years ago I tried to read the book. I really did, but The Red Thread of Death, butcher knives that cut off mouse's tails, and fathers selling thier daughters for a tablecloth were a bit much for me who was by the way 6 or 7 at the time. We ended up giving away that book away needless to say. So when Emily went to go see the movie she then proceeded to read the book. She has been nagging me ever since to read the book. I believe her exact words were when I said it was scary was: "Only a couple die in the dungeon," Let me make this much clear: IT IS A CHILDREN'S BOOK. THE WOMAN WHO WROTE IT ALSO WROTE BECAUSE OF WINN-DIXIE ONE OF THE SWEETEST BOOKS EVER. So Emily today I went to my library and I was praying all the way there that they didn't have it. They did. And darling Emily I read the book. Yes, it was still scary even though I am now 11. And my dear darling Emily now it is time for you to keep your half of the deal. Bet you didn't think I would keep my half. Well, Ems you have another think coming to you.
