James and the Giant Peach

A  LITTLE MAGIC TAKES YOU A BIG .... PEACH?
You know James, star of the book James and the Giant Peach?
NO?!?!?!?!?!?!??
Here: http://www.amazon.com/James-Giant-Peach-Roald-Dahl/dp/0140374248
Another: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_and_the_Giant_Peach#References


https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1rpYRk05_gJZzEgXhj2MkmW2-0z4WYX0cyLdelRDFbYOJV771xjd8E68UDCCzbWFLWJawBe59PrqJRTs-Xak9HT9N_3kguncYUbrusKjNPs0wEE64dBoy47db0z2F4KUbFdlN_I1kZyDX/s1600/james-and-the-giant-peach.jpg
Yup, Remember now. And James is not the only star. He's helped by
  • Ladybug
  • Glowworm(Female Dragonfly Without Wings)/Not played as character in play
  • Green Old Grasshopper
  • Spider
  • Earthworm
  • Centipede
  • Silk Worm/Not in play
  • Old Man
The meanest of the frightful cast will bring your heart out. Such as :
  • Aunt Sponge
  • Aunt Spiker

"...It all starts when James Henry Trotter's Parents get eaten (In a very crowed street, mind you) by an Enraged Rhino(Huh?)But be not sorry to much for them, their problems were over in 12 seconds flat.  Poor James, on the other hand, was very much alive, and sent to live his aunts Spiker (Dududuhhh) and Sponge (Duhduhhhh) on top of  a very high hill ..." From James and the Giant Peach
You get the flow.
James's Aunts Sponge and Spiker Are arguing over who's prettier (I personally think Spiker=  -10 and Sponge= -20)And James is chopping wood for the fire. James stops chopping for a moment, because he overwhelmed with his sadness.
Spiker. What's the matter with you?
James begins crys
Jam. Oh, Aunt Sponge! And Auntie Spiker! Couldn't we all -please- just for once- go down to the seaside in the bus? It isn't far-and I feel so hot and awful and lonely...
Spi. Why, you good for nothing brute!
Sponge. Beat him!
Spi. I certainly will.-pause- I shall beat you later when I'm not as hot. Get out of my sight, you disgusting worm!
This is when the first peculiar thing happens.
James gets the crocodile tongues, made from the most disgusting things.
But he trips and the they go flying, and the peach and bugs get bigger and the adventure begins. (After flattening two you know whos)
Spoiler alert:
They end up in the sea and ladybug thinks there are bobbing up. when they go up they think they are drowning but don't. then sharks attack the peach! but they survive with the help of 502 seagulls.
then they attack(verbally) cloud men and then the cloud men attack(Literally) them.
But they get pulled away safely thanks to the seagulls. Then they land on top of the empire state building.
Then they become Heroes!(After aliens.)
I say read book, watch play ,but do not watch movie.
I think the theme Don't judge something until you know for real if it is true.

Energy Drinks = E.R.?

Yes, you saw that right.
RED BULL , HIGH ENERGY UPPER , COULD BE A MAJOR INFLUENCE ON YOUR HEALTH.
A energy/death upper?
Red bull and other energy drinks give you a 50% more chance of going to the E.R.
Why?...It ups your chance of heart attack.
Unbelievable, right? You mean, my favorite drink is deadly? Ha!
Um yeah, it is...And to prove it:http://healthland.time.com/2011/02/14/energy-drinks-may-harm-health/
So put down that energy drink, and take some water!

When Alexander the Great is in town, You better get out!"You wouldn't want to be in Alexander the Great's army!" Gives a detailed life with Alexander ('s Army). By Jacqueline Morely 

Alexander the Great is the Greatest general in all time. The Egyptian knew it, and they survived.

I also did another (Edible) project: The Candy China! I was wondering why the wall (bricks) didn't cover the whole thing.I now know why. Mountains, and the wall wasn't edible.
