Crazy as it seemed , when I reviewed your profile some . About 6 to 8 grade and up higher grade books as well. To me seem like the 1 st 4 to 6 paragraphs I felt a little slow as I was lost as in how the wording was. I looked at it as I was this is my last chance to get better in my life kinda a way. Meaning I was not really understanding your point of view. So I read it again and then all started to call into place for me. But don't know how it would for someone else with a learning disability . But that is another fix for another day. But I like where it's going

    Thank you for your dedicated review. Most would just dismiss it. If you begin with Ch. & read on til here it will make more sense. I'm glad you like it.

A lot of thought and imagination going into this story, I can tell that and it does flow very well and it reads well and I did not find any errors to speak of. A bear invites a raccoon into her den. Wow, and she certainly does get plenty exercises of different types.

Okay Liz, tell me what other reviewers said about this story. I really am serious and for a reason.
Your writing is flawless for an article or a textbook. You can't be faulted on those. But you must lighten up a bit. You come across as a teacher and appear not to need help. That means your writing seems stiff, it is perfect for a teaching aid, your command of words brilliant, however, you are not writing a thesis, but a story of a bear who tries to be kind and it fails. Now put that marvelous brain that you have and write something for fun. I have faith in you Liz so get moving, you have been reviewing me for ages now I want to review a different type of story from you. You want, and you are intelligent enough to write from the place inside where all good writing comes from. Sincerely Anne. I am giving you a six because this is a terrific piece of writing, now write a story.

    You have nailed it. I am very serious in my writing. Let me think if I have any not so serious. I guess once a teacher, always a teacher. O'm also a Pisces, usually quite serious with the twinlke in the eye. I have written some silly stuff. Here is one:


    Washer Mosher
    Don't ever overstuff your washer
    Don't you be a laundry mosher.
    Never jam your clothes in with your feet
    and never thrash your arms around during this feat.
    For you might just hit the start button
    and then you're as good as ground mutton.
    Never put the bleach up too high
    for you may find it splashing in your eye.
    Then you'll be so blind,
    that stop button you'll never find.
    You'll whirl faster round and round
    and just like that matching sock,
    parts of you will never be found.
    Remember tipping over the box of baking soda bicarbonate
    will startle your dog enough to urinate.
    A chemical reaction will cause such a boom
    they'll be looking for you and your dog all over the room.
    So if you want to be around to tell your story
    rather than going out with fireworks and glory
    please don't any washing moshing do,
    even though it seems like good clean fun to you.

This chapter certainly addresses what happens when you do a good deed and invite someone into your home ... when differences arise that you're not used to putting up with. Wonder where the cat ends up? : )
I enjoyed the read...

    Thank you for you involved review. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I had to divide this chapter up because I wanted people to really read it. This actually happened to me, not in a cave but in my apartment. Most of this whole book is autobiographical.

    What a great way to tell your story! : )

I like this story and how Bea is learning how to problem solve the way her mother taught her. I also like the way she forgets and doesn't do things right sometimes. Good reading!

Do the animals have more sense than we do? This selection has a plot and follows the plan very clearly. The sense of the "striving for goodness" with the bear is very admirable. I am trying to get the pattern for the capitalized words in this piece. I thought they represented "good practices" but was caught off guard with "the DAM in TIMOTHY'S POND." I figure that the use of these capitalized words were explained in the introduction.
I am relatively new with this reviewing thing, but think there is a comma missing here: " She then without much delay, was able to return . . ." - my instinct tells me that there should be a comma after "She" because "then without much delay" is an interrupter. Let me know what you think. I might be on the wrong track.
I love the idea of the animals caught in situations that are similar to human beings. This give us a creative way of exploring our motives, our connection with "THE MAKER OF THE BEES." Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you for the heads up on the comma. The program, Grammarly, cites the comma as my nemesis. It always has been. I think I may be overcorrecting because I used to use them too often. I divided this chapter up so that people will really read it and absorb it. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    Well, keep up the good work. This is very enjoyable.
