I have finally read this new book called "The Corn Grows Ripe". This book is about a boy that grows corn all by himself. In the beggining, the story takes place in a house with a boy named Tigre who lives with his mom, dad, and his great-grandmother. His father takes him for hunting. Tigre has a slingshot but wishes to have a gun. One day when he came home, he saw two strangers in the house. They said that a tree fell on his father's leg and they brought him home. His grandmother told him to go to a medicine man to get a medicine. When Tigre had reached the village, the medicine man gave Tigre the medicine. Then Tigre went back home, but when he arrived, everyone was already asleep. The next morning a new thing happened: some of the chickens were dead because of a vampire bat. After a few days, Tigre went out to burn the milpa. The smoke covered his clothes, hair, and face. But luckily, the rain gods came and cleared the fire. After he came home, his uncle was supposed to be home but he wasn't. Then another day, Tigre began to plant the corn seeds and grandma prepared the fire for the dead chickens. When Tigre's uncle came, he saw that he has a new gun. But a draught started to come. His father's leg was not yet healed and Tigre didn't have time to do his homework. The draugh became worse and Tigre and the medicine man went out for a hunt. The medicine man told him to kill two deers. But on the end, they came back with one baby deer. After they came back to the village, the medicine man began to pray to summon the rain gods, and it worked! The rain covered all the fields and the land became green again, and Tigre's corn grew ripe.

Venus, the second planet in our solar system. But did you think that there is life on Venus? Some say there is and some say there isnt. There can also be life on planet Mars. But lets talk about Venus. Did you know Venus is big same as Earth? Its true and Venus hase water, canyons, mountains and some say also volcanos! And its preasure is 92 times greater than the earths. But without water and the volcanoes that are 894 hot, Venus would not survive and it would explode and never be heard of ever again. But when scientists deployed a space cartinto space to explore Venus, The camera has spotted a moving thing jumping away. The camera took the picture but it was smudged. And the space cart could not follow it because that moving living thing was very fast and the cart was very slow to catch up. When the scientists posted the picture in the newspapers, people didnt belive them because they thought it was photoshop made. One day, the scientists said:" We knew it would be futile that we would get the picture on the news paper. But we can tell you this: We will go to Venus and we will not come back until we catch that living thing that is trying to tell us that there is life on Venus!"
