 Today I read an origin myth on Newsela about a girl who fell from a floating island along with a tree and how the animals she fell to knew the lady was good fortune and wanted to help the lady. They found soil to put on the great turles back and he grew along with the world. I actually found this origin story kind of interesting and a bit suspenseful. I rate it a 7.5/10

Prompt: In Letters 46–50, Celie begins to see Albert more clearly—his flaws, his regrets, and the ways he changes when he is no longer in complete control of her.

Growing up they taught me alot and put me through learning experiences so for that im grateful.
