5 Paragraph Essay Practice

            Naomi The best Vet There ever was!  When I grow up I think I'd make a great vet.  I've always enjoyed  animals.  One of my favorite things to do is be around animals.  I even have some experience at a farm.  I love animals, I have four animals, and I don't mind seeing blood, therefor I will be the best vet there ever was!

          Loving animals has always come naturally to me.  There was that time when I got to help a vet neuter a horse.  I'm always willing to help animals when their in need.  Whenever I see them, I jump for joy! Being able to love animals is the first step in becoming a vet.    

          Having four animals is another thing  I really enjoy. It's so exiting to take care of them.  When I'm helping them I feel like having four animals.  Is going to make me scream, what a dog is to it's tail.  Being able to help animals the rest of my life would be awesome!

                                 Not minding seeing blood takes special talent. I gained a lot of experience at the farm watching four baby cows be born.  I learned alot about the cows there.  For example, if cows feet are not trimmed they grow up. The time I spent at the farm is sure to give me an advantage when it comes to becoming a vet. 

                 The three most important ingredients required in order to become a successful vet are I love animals, having four animals  and not minding seeing blood, and I've got them all! I want to see many breeds. I'm never so happy as when I'm in the midst of animals.  It's like Carina said," I'm just a natural." When I'm with animals, I feel like I'm going to explode, and that's why I'll be the best vet there ever was!

Leaving Protection ( Will Hobbs Book Review )

Leaving Protection is a book about a boy named Robbie Daniels from Port Protection.Robbie goes to Craig in search of a job on a fishing troller .  While Robbie is searching,  he  meets Tor Torson , who is the captain of a troller named the the Storm Petrel.  Tor hires Robbie to fish for the king salmon season .  While out, Robbie discovers that Tor is an antique dealer and has discovered some Russian plaques.Tor has been selling them on the black market for a high price .  While there fishing , a storm causes Tor to fall over board and Robbie tries to gaff him in the shoulder and pull him to the boat .  It doesn't work and Tor dies, but Robbie is still in danger.  He heads for Lituia Bay, but there is a sand bar.  Then all of a sudden, a big wave lifts Robbie up and over the and bar and he makes it.  Robbie then has to call Tor's daughter, and she trades Robbie's family the Storm Peterel for their boat and also gives the Russian plaques to the government. 

I think the lesson Robbie learns is that you need to think before you act.  Robbie should have thought about going on to Tor's boat before he did it.  Tor should have thought about going out on the deck during a storm without wearing a survival suit.  Robbie thought about running away when they were on the island, but Tor could 've just shot him.  Robbie had to think how to get over the sand bar to get into Lituia bay.  So that is why I think that the lesson Robbie learns is that he needs to think before he acts. 

I would recommend Leaving Protection  because it's action filled and you can learn from it.  From the very beginning, there is action.  Robbie is fishing, finding plaques, and you can learn Russian history about the plaques.  That is why I recommend Leaving Protection.
