Hi, my name is Henley and I am in second grade and I am going into third grade.
And the reason why I love writing it is because it gives me the inspiration to never stop writing.
And this book is called The Girl Who Loves Books.
One day Nelly was in her room reading a book.
She realized that today was Tuesday.
On Tuesdays, Nelly goes to the library.
She loves the library just as much as she loves reading books.
When Nelly gets to the library, she takes elevator down to the children's section.
The first stop is a scavenger hunt.
It is so much fun.
The scavenger hunt takes you all over the children's area so you can explore different amazing book sections, books you might never have seen before.
Now the scavenger hunt is over.
Nelly looks for books about girls her age who lived a long time ago ... and dinosaurs.
Nelly picks out all her books.
She checks out, then goes home.
When Nelly gets home, she goes to her room and climbs into her bed and snuggles with her books.
She's in for an adventure.
