Madeleine began writing a chapter book today about the characters of "Monster High," and she is already four chapters in! She is sounding out the words all by herself, and most of it is pretty intelligible.
(However, if you dare misunderstand something she wrote, watch out! Auntie Caitlyn mistakenly read the spelling "Kloth" as...well, kloth. After the third or so time of this, Madeleine had HAD it.
MADELEINE: No, it's KLAWED. (voice suddenly elevating to the brink of screaming) It makes me SO ANGRY that you keep saying "KLOTH!")
Here's a little glimpse of the book; behold, chapter 1:
CSAPR 1 GO GO GO GO
(Now, lest you think this says "Chapter 1, Go go go go," and risk making Madeleine SO ANGRY, I'll just forewarn you that the chapter title is actually "Goo goo ga ga.")

I love it, Madeleine! Your writing makes me feel like I'm right there in the room with the characters. I wish I could have roct owt to the myozic with Jraculorru and Valintiymm and friends!
The subsequent chapters follow Jaculorru, Kloth, and some of her other Monster High friends as they eat cocys, as they are olmost lyat to a purde, and as they scare a spooky gost awt uv Clodeen's house. This is not to be missed, readers. When the finished product hits the shelves, be sure to grab a copy!
I wonder why Jaculorru has to keep klothing things. At least they like to purde and eat cocys! XOXO

ReplyDeleteThe last chapter really ends with a bang. The readers won't want to miss out!
