Book Review 2

I read "Mudslide".　The hero is a girl whose name is Jessica. There are four members in her family, her father, mother and grandmother. One day, it is heavy rain and the town is turning into a river. Jessica’s grandmother walked into the living room and she sat her favorite chair. Her grandmother wanted to eat crackers, so Jessica went to the kitchen to bring some crackers. When Jessica saw the cliff in front of her house, the rain water poured hard. Then Jessica’s parent left for a work and Jessica went to school. Her grandmother remained house alone. Jessica’s school is little far away from her house. Wind and rain blew without mercy. She tried to open her umbrella, but it didn’t work. Jessica managed to get to school. She surprised that half of her classmates were absent from school. After she took the first period class, an announcement spoke “students, due to flooding from the storm, classes are over today”.
