By: Sophie Cricket, age 14, Delaware, USA.

   

 “The filling recipe I made up myself, but I used Ina Garten’s Perfect Pie Crust recipe for the crust. Altogether the pie is perfect for the summertime!” –Sophie Cricket

F O R T H E P I E C R U S T

12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) very cold unsalted butter

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 tablespoon sugar

1/3 cup very cold vegetable shortening

6 to 8 tablespoons (about 1/2 cup) ice water

F O R T H E F I L L I N G

4-5 medium peaches, sliced

1/3 cup blueberries

a pinch of salt

1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 cup brown sugar

1 ½ tablespoons of maple syrup

D I R E C T I O N S F O R P I E C R U S T

Dice the butter and return it to the refrigerator while you prepare the flour mixture. Place the flour, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and shortening. Pulse 8 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of peas. With the machine running, pour the ice water down the feed tube and pulse the machine until the dough begins to form a ball. Dump out on a floured board and roll into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Cut the dough in half. Roll each piece on a well-floured board into a circle, rolling from the center to the edge, turning and flouring the dough to make sure it doesn't stick to the board. Fold the dough in half, place in a pie pan, and unfold to fit the pan. Repeat with the top crust.

 

_____________________________________________________  

 

 B A K I N G D I R E C T I O N S

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees (for baking the pie.) Slice you peaches, and put them in a glass bowl with the fresh blueberries. Add cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg & a pinch of salt.

Put a medium sauce pan on low heat, add maple syrup and brown sugar watch carefully (sugar can burn very easily and it can ruin the pan!) and whisk till the brown sugar dissolves into the maple syrup. Add the sugar and maple mixture to the bowl with the fruit and spices, mix together. Roll out your marzipan and place on top of the crust. Add fruit, spices and sugar to pie, on top of the marzipan. Top pie with upper crust or, if desired lattices (strips of pie dough.). Brush with milk, and sprinkle with sugar. Cook pie, for 45 minutes to an hour until golden. Cool, so that the juices can absorb into each other and serve.

There are a lot of simple things that you can do to lessen your impact on the environment; yet many people don’t do these things. For example, in the United States, only a very small percentage of all plastic bags are recycled. That means the rest wind up in landfills or in the ocean. A large number of sea animals die each year from ingesting or becoming entangled in these bags. The average American uses approximately five hundred plastic bags a year. When you consider the size of the population, that number becomes much larger. Even if you don’t completely stop using plastic bags, you can reduce that amount. Fill them to capacity and decline bags for small purchases; then reuse or recycle them. However, the best alternative is not to use any at all—bring your own reusable bags. They are multifunctional, more durable and longer lasting. If they become unusable, the material can be repurposed for something else. Plastic bottles also largely contribute to landfills, although they can be recycled almost anywhere. Discontinuing your use of these bottles not only saves plastic; it can save you money as well. Tap water is less expensive than bottled water. If you’re concerned about impurities or the taste of tap water, you can install a filter. Reusable water bottles come in a wide variety of styles and materials, including plastics, metals, and glass.

Before you buy (anything!) there are a few things worth considering. First of all, it’s better to buy things locally. If you purchase something made far away, in another country across the globe, it has used a lot of energy to get to you. Second, if you’re buying clothing, consider the textile. While cotton is a natural fiber, growing it uses a lot of chemicals. Organic cotton is grown without pesticides, making it a better choice. Bamboo is fast-growing and renewable—it doesn’t need to die when cut down because the roots stay intact. Yet another sustainable choice is to purchase clothing second-hand. There are many benefits to this. You’re reusing something that already exists, so you’re not using more energy to create something new. Also, it’s generally less expensive than brand new clothing.

Compost is an organic fertilizer made from food scraps and yard waste. It’s better for the environment because it keeps them out of landfills. It’s also good for the soil when gardening. Planting a garden is beneficial because the produce is grown as locally as possible. Save paper by using both sides of the page. Recycle or shred and compost it if you no longer need it. Paper, including newsprint, may be composted as long as it isn’t colored or glossy, because those may contain toxins. When possible, walk or ride a bike for transportation. Carpooling is also more environmentally friendly because taking only one vehicle can reduce the amount of green house gases emitted. If everyone does their part to lessen their impact, we can have a healthier world for ourselves and future generations.

Easy, simple solutions to things you can do to

T H E H U N G E R G A M E S By: Suzanne Collins

Book Review By: Zosia Evergreen, age 11, North Carolina, USA.  

The Hunger Games was definitely the book most kids read in the year of 11-12. This exciting story tells a narrative of a girl named Katniss Everdeen. When her younger sister (Primrose) gets chosen to be a in a yearly fight to death called the hunger games, Katniss can’t watch her sister die.

So she volunteers to trade, and Katniss joins the bloodcurdling fight for life in The Hunger games.

T H E H U N G E R G A M E S S E R I E S

The Hunger Games series is made up of three exciting novels by Suzanne Collins. Below is a list of all of the books in the series.

M O C K I N G J A Y (Book #3)

T W E N T Y T W O

The descriptions in the book will make you feel like you are in the stadium of this yearly competition.

With shocking moments, of almost deaths, new friends made, a few lies to the public, and a fake romance, the Hunger Games will have you up all night reading!

J U N O N I A By: Kevin Henkes

Book Review By: Celia Sunshine, age 12, North Carolina, USA.

 

 

Junonia is a joyful read, full of lovely descriptions, and beautiful illustrations. However it is pretty melancholy for a chapter book. But by no means being a "chapter book" did the author butter it down in a learn-to-read, first reader sort of way. Instead Kevin Henkes weaves a modern tale, with an imaginable, realistic world. That follows the main character (Alice Rice) a ten year old girl, who visits a Florida beach cottage named Scallop every year with her family...the trip always landing on her birthday. -And this year, she turns ten. The book revolves around Alice's dream of finding a Junonia on her tenth birthday. (A rare type of shell). And her world being partly turned upside down from un-expected guests arriving in Florida, and meeting new friends along the way. And in the end, maybe she might just even find a Junonia.  Kevin Henkes captures what we all feel at ten, the desire to stay young but to grow up at the same time. He captures what every kid, and adult alike experiences when their ten. It ties the book together, and ties it again for the reader. And in my opinion, creates a perfect double-knotted package! If you're to-read list for the summer is running short, then pick up Junonia. And fall into the peaceful world, of the ocean and the mind of a ten year old with desire for a shell. It’s a read you surely don't want to miss.

  By: Sara L, age 15, North Carolina, USA.

Alone. Alone. Alone. The words beat in time with my heart. I'm the last one. I'm Skye. I am, was, the three-thousand-two hundred-twenty-ninth person on board the CIV class carrier ship, Starfire. I am, as of two minutes ago, the first and last living passenger. They're all dead. My heartbeat is slowing, finally, and I can breathe normally. Arin was my friend, and now she's dead too. I wish I could've done something, anything to save her. I hate myself for hiding in the walls like a coward. I hate myself for not sharing my hideaway. Gone. Gone. Gone. I see the sense, now, in keeping it a secret, as I can be fairly certain that there is no one who would have died in my sanctuary, but still, I am cautious as I creep along between the walls of the large ship, alert for any sound out of the ordinary. Starfire... My home. My only home. I don't remember Earth, I was nothing more than a baby when I left with my family... Dead. Dead. Dead. With each beat of my heart, something else rises in me. Fear. Hatred. The Feds did this to us. They were the ones who froze the...zombie... and packed it along with us. So then, who freed it? I would ask, except I fear I already know. Our captain, for lack of a better word. He sabotaged us, even as he was idolized as a hero. When I first wondered into the cryo-unit that held the thing, it scared me more than you could imagine. I was “borrowing” supplies, and underneath a loose tile on the floor was a ladder. Maybe going down that ladder saved my life, I knew what was going on before most everyone else, either way, it was something I never wanted to see again, and now... now I've steeled myself against it. I never thought I'd be one to kill, if it's really killing, at this point, since they're already dead. Already broken. Arin's dead, Mother's dead, Father's dead. Everyone I ever spoke to, is dead. My world has become no more than the constant noise of the dead. I can't keep my mind in one place. My thoughts jump from present to past to future wildly. I realize that I am likely to never set foot on a planet's surface. That I'm likely to not see the end of the month, let alone year. That is a sobering – I hear them. Moaning, scraping, clawing, crawling, hauling themselves along the once-pristine corridors. As I place my eye to a crack in the metal, I can see them. A group of three, slumped and slouched. The center one is painfully familiar, even beaten and bitten and torn, even partially rotted, I know my father's face. I almost make some noise, and catch it at the last moment. Clenching the glowing blade in my hand, I slip from my space through the near-invisible hatch.

As I come upright in the hall, I cannot help but curse. Sooner or later, we are all dead. They turn, I growl, even knowing it does me no good it helps to release the pent-up sound of anger. The zombies' moans rise in pitch, as if in response to the proximity of the last living flesh on the ship. I freeze for an instant. Enough so that I forget where I am, and the undead close with me. When I blink, they're closer, the creature that was my father in the lead. I don't want to do this. I don't want to. I can't not do it. So I raise my blade, the plasma in the weapon humming menacingly. Why? Why? Why? I've done it so many times before, it should just be habit, and it is, I suppose. I can't think about what I'm doing as I drive the blade into their heads, twisting it. The next one comes slowly, its knee is broken. The slumped thing approaches, and I mechanically cut it down, its brain ruined by my blade. The last one is my father, or his shell. I hadn't thought about this when I decided I wanted to live. Now? I just want to die on my own terms. I raise my weapon, squaring my shoulders. My arm moves of its own accord, the sickening crunch of bone and the wet slurp of the undead's brain. I can't allow myself to think yet, so I don't. I run. I know what I'm doing, somewhere in my head, as I careen through the ship, a number of dead litter the floor, my and Arin's work, and I leap over them, making more noise than safe. I just run. It's not until I get to my old room I realize what I want. I don't hesitate to push open the door, sling my helmet strap around my shoulder, grab my air-tank, and push through the loose ceiling tile. There's enough space to stand here, run, so I do. I fasten my air-tank around my shoulders, my suit clicking into place, my helmet bouncing against my shoulder blade. Too late I realize there is motion ahead of me. I realize my delusions of safety were just that. The thing grabs me, its mouth closing on my ankle. I scream, it's over at this point. I feel the teeth meet in my leg, and drive my sword into the thing's head. The jaws relinquish their grasp and I stagger free. Helmet and sword forgotten, I break into a painful run as I near my destination. My breath comes in gasps as I swing down into the room with the airlocks. Catching myself, I struggle upright, punching the code into the airlock door. I want to die as myself. No hope. I slide inside, blood running down my leg. I slam my hand into the red button inside and face the zombies. They converge on me, the airlock opens, and I lose consciousness.

The Big Dipper. It’s three simple words that make up seven glittering stars in the shape of a ladle. Usually it’s the first small constellation that children will hear about. Being one of the easiest shapes and figures in the sky to find, it is visible in most places in the Northern Hemisphere. The Big Dipper is also known as Plough or Saptarishi. The Big Dipper’s seven stars are made up of what Astronomers call a “constellation”. Astronomers are people who study the stars & galaxies in the universe. In other words, they’re star scientists! Why do they study stars? Studying the stars can give us bits of information on when the earth was created, how the universe formed, how old a star is, (or if its even a star at all!) and also can give us information on just space itself. The Big Dipper is also part of a bigger constellation called the Ursa Major. In Latin, the Ursa Major is called the “Larger Bear”. The reason it’s called the Larger Bear is because the way the stars are placed in the sky, making it resemble a large bear. The Big Dipper is found in the Ursa Major’s bears tail. So if you find The Big Dipper in the sky, it means you’re very close to finding the Ursa Major! Did you spot any constellations this summer? If not, you still have plenty of time! With autumn, it will be bringing up an entirely new group of stars our way. Happy stargazing! Have you ever seen The Big D ipper? Need help f ind ing conste l lat ions? They can be tr i cky to f ind ! The fo l low ing apps you can download for your IPhone , IPod , IPad , etc .

TIE A BANDANA

It’s hot out and you’re burning up from the heat. Your hairband just broke which means your hair is also hot on your neck. The solution to both putting up your hair and staying cool in the heat?

Bandanas of course!

Bandanas are a great way to stay cool in the summertime. They can keep your hair off your neck and you can soak or wet them in water to stay extra cool. They come in lots of patterns, designs, and…they’re stylish!

If you don’t have a bandana on hand, ask your parents if they have one you could use. If not, don’t worry, bandanas are fairly inexpensive and can also be made with a large square of fabric.

The best part is that you can wear one regardless of how long or short your hair may be. Below are directions on how to tie your bandana around your head and on the next page is an illustration to help you figure it out!

D I R E C T I O N S : 1 Lay your square bandana out on a flat surface. 2 Take one corner of the square bandana and fold it across to the other corner. It should look

like a triangle now. This way both ends of the bandana are touching. 3 Take the bandana that’s now in the shape of triangle and place it on your head. (The tip of

the triangle should be on the back of your head. The side with the crease is in front.) Taking the two points, tie them in a knot at the nape of your neck, making sure it’s secure. And ta-da! You’re done!
