the story i read today is called Tales From Ancient Greece it was retold by Pamela Oldfield. in this story they have all types of cool pictures on horses, they have the people riding, they have the horses that fly. i learned that in this book Ancient Greece had a lot of things to prepare for and they are very unique and back then they rode their horses everywhere they went. they also had battles with outside animals and they faught them to protect their family and friends, they faught lions, dinosours,goats and they way that they faught them was they would ride their flying horses instead of the regular ones they flying horses that the greece had was very special. they had an ruler and he lived in water and he is very strong and he has the powers that no one had in the Ancient greece. the most thng that was interesting to me was the flying horses they had and the way that they would go out and fight to protect the people and homes.

♥Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul
♥Written by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, & Kimberly Kirberger
♥I read a story about a young girl named Lia, who fell in love with her high school boyfriend. How she quickly assumed that after they broke up she couldn’t live without him. She felt as if she could no longer be who she was without him in her life. Also, that time always heals the pain. Of course, time went by and she eventually learned that she couldn’t love anyone without loving herself first. THE END!
♥There really weren’t any interesting facts about this story. I’ve already figured out what she went through.

*Wild Animals
In the book, there are tons of pictures about wild life animals. Some pictures show how big or how small. Other pictures show what the animal is know for, like teeth, color or size. This book show you a picture of an animal, then it gives a description about it. It tells you were you can find the animal and what makes them so special. Some description’s tell what animal is related to another. It also tells you what continent the animal is on. I thought that this book was very interesting. It has plenty of facts, you can learn about every animal.

The book that I’m reading for this morning is called “chicken soup for the soul” and the story that I’m reading is called “simple gesture”. Its about a guy named Mark that saw a guy that drop a lot of stuff on the floor he decide to help him pick up his stuff by that time they became friend and some times have lunch together on school. Mark that they day notice a lot of stuff about that guy what he like and do. Years had past and they were about to graduate. In the day of the graduation the guy explain to Mark that the day that he help him carry his stuff he just not help him pick up his stuff he also safe his life because he was going to tack all the stuff home because he was going to suicide him self but Mark make him not to do it. What I learned about this story is that if you help people you made not just helping him with one thing you can help him with a lot of stuff. When I was reading this story I was thinking in all that people that are trying to suicide their self's.

Today I read the same book, Our Lady of Guadalupe. “Nahuatl” refers to the language, values and customs shared by a number of people of the Aztec Empire. The Aztecs are a subgroup of all the Indian groups, a dominant demographic. The Nahuatl population was ruled by the Aztecs. The Aztecs were a dominant indigenous military group and had developed an aristocracy. They were hated and feared by the subordinate groups, many felt the Aztecs’ obsession with human sacrifice had totally perverted the religion. Whether the Spaniards were gods or humans, they presented the potential for liberation from this domination.
I think that its very amazing that the Aztec had some astonishing affect to the rest of the Indians. Its also surprising to me how the other Indians didn’t do anything to fight back, why didn’t they get allied to beat up these “bullies”?
I learned that the Aztecs were the most “dominant” Indians in Central America.
