You've got the story pretty well, Ashley. In your writing be sure to watch the conventions aspects. Be sure spelling is correct and all sentences are truly fully developed thoughts. Also try to include an exciting description of the best part of the book. It will sell us on the idea we should all read the book. Keep reading. :-)
