Wolf Siren
Shadower's challenge-descriptive piece of writing about a journey using all 5 senses. I was in the car, covering my nose as the stink of something surrounded the whole of the safari park. I felt the car go up the steep hills and as i looked out of the window, rhino's were all over the place and i discovered it was their poop that was stinking up the place. I felt sick, my mum handed me some some crisps to eat, the packet crinkling in my hand. As i ate the spice filled my nose and mouth, spice never bothered me, i liked spice and the feeling of heat on my tongue. I stop eating as i hear my baby cousin crying and i look over, she is adorable. I stroke her cheek, it feels smooth against my fingers.

Freedom Braids
I really loved the illustrations in the book, Freedom Braids. The images were exactly what i imagined in the stories my family used to tell me when i was younger. As i read the part where they were braiding each others hair, i got this sense of nostalgia. It reminded me of when my mom would braid my hair and tell me stories at night. The moon would shine and me and my siblings would sit right next to my mom, on the outside of my house. The cold breeze, the birds chirping on the trees, and the moon shining bright while she explained what each hairstyle meant and how our ancestors fought for freedom, how we should be proud of ourselves. This book represented all theses feelings and did it wonderfully. I would definitely recommend this book to all my friends and family, especially those who might have had a similar background to mine.
