Hi! My name is Michelle Tao. I am 23 years old. I come from Taiwan. I am an author in in Taiwan. I don't write Chinese books I write English books because I think Chinese are harder than writing English. You may wonder, why do you want to be an author? Well, that's because my favorite book called: The Tale of Despereaux, was a great book. It had lots of details, it desrcribed a lot about what's happening, and it was reward. I thought, well I love that book so much, now I am going to make a great book just like the book"The Tale of Despereaux". That's why I want to be an author.
I decide to name the book," The Small Giant. I wasn't alone on the book, my best friend drew pictures because I wasn't good at drawing and she was. She didn't understand English so I wrote the story and she did the drawings. It was my first time making a chapter book. I was so excited about publishing because I wanted it to be award, so I did my best, and my best friend did her best. Finally, we finished the book. We published the book and it was award! This was the best day every!
I wrote this book because it will that me become an great author just like the author of "The Tale of Despereaux". When I write more books the people will want to read mt books and I will be a popular author.

Which takes up more space... a pickle or a stomachahe ?
I think the amount of space a pickle can take is 12 grams. I think it is 12 grams because every small food can weigh about 12 grams. One food that takes the same the space is a little piece of cake. I predict it takes the same amount of space because it is a small food.
Next, what is the amount of space a stomachahe takes up? I think the pain of a stomache takes up a lot of space after you eat your dinner . There is a lot of food in your stomach so your stomach gets bigger and then you have a stomachahe. That's why I think it takes a lot of space when you have pain after dinner.
I think when you get a stomachahe it takes up more space. My first reason is because a pickle weights 12 grams and a pain can't even be measured in grams, so it has to be more than 12 grams. My second reason is that anyone can tell which takes more space by thinking if it is a small or big food or stuff we use.

My Favorite Part:
Is Wayside School is Falling Down
To begin this book, I have to tell you that wayside school WAS going to have 1 floor with 36 rooms but, instead the workers who built Wayside School built 36 floors with one room in each floor! Can you beliveve a school like that? So the story goes that children in Wayside School were sitting in their seat working and learning. Just then, all the cows were coming inside the school running around! Mrs. Jewls one of the teachers in the school was ringing her cowbell so that the children would know where they are going.
Now do you think that the cowbell would scare the cows away?
Ture or Flase
The answer is Flase
The cows keep attacking the children!
