Pgs: 1-47

In the story "A perfect gift" Justin vale was a soccer player who was playing a soccer game and they were in penalties. When he scored he shouted to the air "six to nothing"and then the crowd was cheering the talent of Justin. Justin and his friends always celebrated the end of the school week with a pick up game at the park. And that day Justin played like he never had played in his entire life. Later that day the night was falling as Justin was saying good bye to his friends. and then as he was walking down the street he saw two firetrucks heading towards a really big fire. Then the next day Justin was very asleep. And he had a dream were he saw his mom yelling at him and then he woke up realizing he was late for school. But one day somebody stoled his sneakers. Then he went to his closet to check if he had left them there. But then he saw a shadow in the kitchen wandering if the shadow was his mother. This is what I have read so far.

Even that the story does not seem like a scary story I think that the fire had to do with Justin's mom and also when Justin lost his sneakers. But still I think it is a very good story with what I have read so far. And I like How Justin is because he likes soccer the same way I do. And he likes the same kind of shoes I like. So I think this is a very interesting story.

But I still have one quesstion, What was Justin's mom doing in the kitchen?, because she was not cooking at all.
