Animal Farm
Animal Farm was a descent book. I didn't like the ending because the good guy which was Boxer died. Napoleon, the bad guy, should of died instead of Boxer. The author did a great job making it seem like the Russian revolution. Every animal represented someone from the real revolution. I will give this book four stars.

What would happen if animals took over humans?
In the book Animal Farm the animals do all the work, and the humans get all of their eggs, milk and their newborn. The animals get together in a barn and figure out a plan to stop the humans and take over them. The boar named, Old Major gets all the other farm animals together and talk bad about the humans. He later teaches them the song "Beasts of England", and they all sing the song and Mr. Jones their drunk farmer hears them. He grabs his gun and takes a shot out at the barn. The shot scares all the animals and they scatter. If animals took over humans and controlled them it would be chaos. The world would change dramatically. I'm not sure what would happen for sure if animals took over the world. I think we would still live our everyday lives but the things we do to animals would change, and the foods we eat would be different because there would be no meat. Our obesity problem may be different due to the food.

what is power?
Power is the control someone or even things have. Most parents have control over their kids, but their kids sometimes have the power instead of them. Barack Obama, president of the United States, has power of the United States because he's the president, and he has authority. People with a great deal of power influence us the most, because they know a lot of things. For example, my mom knows a lot about me, and she tells me what's right and what's wrong, what to do and what not to do. Therefore, my mom has most of the power in my life. Some things even has the power in peoples lives such as t.v., computer, video games, hobbies, and even school. That means that they are addicted. When kids are addicted to one of those things that means that they probably don't do well in school. Different things have power in everyones lives.

Cause/effect essay
None of my friends hate to play sports, they at least like one sport whether its on a team or just playing with friends. you don't have to play on a team, or for your school to like a sport and be good at it. Some people think teens plays sports because of exercise, to be with friends, but most people play the sport because they just enjoy it.
Everyone should do an activity to get exercise, have fun, but do it because you want to, not because you have to. Most everyone play a sport because of exercise, to be with friends, and to just have fun. But, thats not the most important reason.
The most important reason is the enjoyment. Kids, teens, and even adults play sports whether if you get paid or just do it for fun. They still enjoy it no matter what. They even enjoy watching people play sports. Even if they are on the team but not playing. People all around the world enjoy playing sports. They enjoy the competition and just playing people from other parts of the world.
In conclusion, everyone should get out there and play a sport. It doesn't matter if you're old, young or middle aged. Just get out there and play a sport.

What exactly is Global warming
Global warming is basically the increase in the temperature in the atmosphere. which causes changes in climate. A warmer Earth may lead to changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. It happens when greenhouse gases(carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth's atmosphere, which increases the temperature. This hurts many people, animals, and plants. Many cannot take the change, so they die. The greenhouse effect is becoming stronger as a result of human activities, which is causing the warming we have observed over the past century.

Why do people burn leaves?
When Fall comes around all the leaves start falling to the ground. Most people rake them. Instead of disposing them correctly, they burn them. Burning leaves hurts our atmosphere. Mulching the leaves by going over them with a lawnmower or composting the leaves, which is great in nutrients is a much better choice than burning them. Leaf burning creates air pollution, which contributes to breathing problems and is a serious fire hazard. In Michigan, state officials want the residents of Michigan to stop burning leaves. In some of the communities of Michigan aren't allowed to burn leaves without a permit.

All about Islam
Founder
The founder of Islam was Muhammad. He was born around the year 570, in the city of Mecca. He died around the year of 632. Abu al-Qasim Muhammad Ibn Abd Allah Ibn Abd al-MuttalIbn Hashim was his full name. His name means highly praised.
Muhammad's father died several weeks before his birth, and his mom died when he was six years old. His paternal grandfather raised Muhammad, until the death of his grandfather occurred. Then, his patern
al uncle took him in and he began to earn a living as a businessman and trader. To the left there is a picture of Muhammad.
Followers
There is a lot of Islamic people living in different parts of the world. For example, there is 170,310,000 Islamic people in Indonesia. In Pakistan there are 136,000,000 Islamic people living there today. Bangladesh has 106,050,000 Islamic people.
Holy Books
The Qur'an is one of the Islamic holy books. I took one of the quotes out of it, and it says,
"Men are the managers of the affairs of women for that God has preferred in
bounty one of them over another, and for that they have expended of their property. Righteous women are therefore obedient, guarding the secret for God's guarding. And those you fe
ar may be rebellious admonish; banish them to their couches, and beat them. So
me other Islamic holy books are the Sunnah, and the Nahjul Balagha.
