It illuminated the ground and the woods; the colors of which were slightly off, almost like looking at them through a stained window pane. I watched the sun climb higher into the sky. But the higher it got the less time I realized I had to play. For me, playing was one of the very most important things. I had so many toys, but
some believe that this is good for the students because they will be learning more and will be more prepared for 1st grade, others believe that the play time they are eliminated is doing more harm than good. In the essay, “Kindergartners get little time to play.

Brown states, “Giving children a chance to play
“The Time I Almost Killed a Little Girl” She was crying. I was panicking. She started crying even more. This is not what I thought would happen while staying at a family friend’s house. This is the story of the time I had to take care of two little girls and almost killed one of them. She’s alive and well now, although sometimes she smiles in a very forced way when she sees me. It all started when my parents had to go somewhere and there was no one to take care of me at home. Of course, I could

and as the little girl gazed about the room, it was obvious to her that many hours had been spent placing and caring for this massive collection. There was a distinct smell about the room--not the moldy mothball scent that a lot of people can smell when they walk into a well-aged library, but a smell that reminded the young girl of school and very faintly of knowledge. Strength seemed to give off a permanent kind of glow in this room, as though the books knew that neither time nor age would
