Bolt (2008)

This review is dedicated to Walt Disney and Walt Disney pictures hard working Men and women who worked on Bolt. Good Job and Thank you for a wonderful movie. Happy New Year Walt Disney.

It all started when Bolt was at the pet store when a girl named Penny came in. She adopted Bolt and 5 years later Bolt became a Television star. Bolt has been a television star along with Penny his whole life. He does not know it is televison because he has never been off the set. He has always stayed in a trailer on set. Penny loves him. Then one day when something wrong happened on the set, Bolt accidentally got shipped to New York. The accident happened when the Green eyed man captured Penny. Bolt thought it was all real and he escaped from his trailer and fell in a shipping box. Now he met an ally cat named Mittens and they met when the pigeons tricked Bolt to thinking that the cat worked for the Green eyed man. The pigeons wanted to get revenge on mittens. Now Bolt and Mittens are tied togeather to travel all the way across the country to Hollywood. In Ohio, They met Rhino. Rhino is just fan that watches a lot of the Bolt shows and is the ultimate fan. He is a hamstuter that lives with an old lady in an RV. In this cross road adventure Mittens and Bolt get friendlier to each other when Bolt realized that he is just a dog on a TV show. He started as a dog that thinks that everything in his show is real to a more realistic dog at the end. This reaches a happy ending with Penny taking care of both Mittens and Rhino. Bolt is no longer enemies with the cat, Mittens instead they are good friends. My favorite part was when they reached Las Vegas , Nevada because I went to Las Vegas recently and was so excited to see the famous Las Vegas strip again. I saw MGM Grand, Treasure Island, New York New York, Paris Las Vegas, Bally in animated form. That was just cool how I can see a place in a movie and I just recently been there. The coolest part of the movie is that I got to see Bolt in Disney Digital 3D.
The storyboard was excellent because it gave background imformation on how Penny got Bolt at the very begining then leads to several scenes Bolt episode shots that leads to why Bolt ended up in New York. It Ends with how Bolt returned back to Los Angleses Hollywood. It also shows the experiences that Bolt had with Mittens and Rhino. It shows that Bolt has gotten more realistic of his TV show character's super powers. He also have 2 new friends, so this adventure has been more than trying to find Penny. It was an experience learning about the outside world. The world that was different from the glamor of a Hollywood set.
This movie has great shots with lots of shot variety and great visuals. The movie showed the great places around the 48 states. My favorite was Las Vegas because I just visited lasvegas during Thanksgiving and I got to see the foundain show of Bellagio again. They made every landmark especially Las Vegas with high pixels.This movie is pure hard work, intellegence, creativity, and high goals. A proverb once said, "It is not that you are afraid of setting your goals to high , but you set it too low that you can't reach it"
I was discussing this movie and believed that this movie can reach an Oscar. It might be Best sound effects, Best Visual effects, Best Animated film , Best Supporting Actress, or Best actor.
The best part about this movie is that it has a solid movie that does not loose focus. It is the best Disney animated movie of the year. Good Job Disney. You reached exceed Expectations and you will get an Oscar. That is the reward for your Success and hard working employees.Thank you Disney.
Walt Disney you have set a legacy, thank you. Not a single filmmakers have made so many good animated movies as your company did. From Alice in Wonderland to Bolt you have built a foundation for future filmmakers of Walt Disney Studios. Thank You and happy new year.

In this epic series the O'Connells are going to China. This movie has awesome visual effects, special effects, camera shots, and story.
One of the best movie of the season.
The story does not have random scenes, everything flows not like Hancock. When they were filming in the Himalayas,they made it so real. Everything has great action like the battle between the undead and the Terracotta warriors.
This is my absolute favorite of the season. Rent it or buy it at Walmart. They have the greatest prices. This movie has great acting. The best acting was acting in acting when the O'connell's friend betrayed them and worked for the enemy that wants to bring the Dragon Emperor back from the grave.

Fly me to the moon

Fly me to the moon is a movie that takes place in 1969 during Apollo 11 moon landing. It is about three flies that board the Apollo 11. They landed on the moon with the Apollo 11 three man crew. Join Scooter, IQ, and Nat in a animated comedy.
This animated film is not just funny, but it has historical details into the movie.
My favorite fly is Scooter because scooter eats non stop. He loves food and can't let go of a choclate cake. He is like me , but not as fat or eat as much. Even when his life is in danger, scooter keeps on eating.
My next favorite is IQ. IQ is my favorite because he is the smartest fly I've seen. He knows how to read english, do math,and do science. I just find it funny because how many flies do that.
Another favorite is Nat. Nat is a funny fly that likes to explore. His grandfather helped Amelia Eairheart fly to France across the Atlantic. Nat is just inspired by his grandfather's journey.

This movie is a animated comedy perfect for the Holidays. Rent it from your locatal video store.

Hancock

Hancock is a movie starring Will Smith and is another superhero movie. It is about a loser superhero who saves lives while he causes damage to Los Angles. The citizens of Los Angles hates him, but he saves lives. He was insaulted and called loser by everybody in Los Angles. From a child to adults, they all insaulted him the same way. It wasn't until he met Ray. Ray works for helping the world. Ray wants to help Hancock and his son believes Hancock is his Hero. Aaron, Ray's son, loves Hancock and he thinks of Hancock as a hero or a role model.
Ray decides to help Hancock be more active with the people of Los Angleses. Ray decides that Hancock go to jail for 2 weeks and no hero work. That way crime willm increase and the city will beg to release Hancock. They will release him 2 weeks after because they know Hancock is needed.
This movie has great camera shots, visual effects, and camera effects. They had lots of Shot variety and made me excited. I love how they had Hancock fly. I know that he's on a blue screen, but they created the perfect illusion. I also enjoy how they created the part between super women and Hancock. Hancock got her angry and you can see in the background tornados forming. I just enjoy seeing that part because they demonstrated to me that Super Women is more powerful than Hancock.
One of the cons is the Story and plot. They story goes well in the being with hancock saving lives,but then it jumps to him fighting Super women. It has no connection to the story. I don't think there even is a story. This movie has a terriable story that it made me want to change the channel.
You can watch one time and rent the disc, but don't buy it. It is not worth a rewatch.

Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)

Journey to the Center of the Earth is based upon the book by Jules Verne. This book starts with a geoly professor named Treavor Anderson. He is the brother of the Late Maxwell Anderson. Max and Treavor has studied the Earth and believed that there are volcanic tubes in the earth that passes the mantle to the Center of the earth. Max came to a conclusion that there is life below the surface, but Max gone missing in July 1997. About ten years later, his brother Treavor and his son, sean is going to Iceland. They believe that Max went to Ice land as well to investigate. They found his research, but the metal containment unit was destroyed by lightnig. Togeather Treavor , Sean, and there Icelandic mountain guide, Hannah, are going to the center of the Earth to find proof for Max's research. In this epic journey, Treavor, Sean and Hannah are going to discover dinosaurs, a terearium at the center of the earth, and extinct lightning birds. They find diamonds, rubies, feldspur, and emerald. This is an exciting journey with excellent camera shots and great visual effects. The camera shots are excellent. I never gor bored from looking at the movie. The Director of Photography is excellent. The movie is suspenseful, exciting, mouth-watering makes me want to see it again and again. I watched this movie at least 5 times and still wants to see more. This movie may have great camera shots, viusl effects, and special effects, it lacks a strong story and plot. It is not creative enough. They should have added to Verne's novel. It is not enough, they did not reach exceed expectations, they aimed for medicroacy. Medicrocy is great, but that is what 95% of the world's population does. Be like the 5% like Bill Gates, Tigar woods, Steven Speilburg, and Zhang Yimou. I am disappointedated at the stroy and plot. I found so excited at the suspense , but disappointed at the story and plot.

Weekly Report

This message is dedicated to President Elect Barack Huessin Obama.
I was watching Obama's weekley Internet address and was feeling that Obama is responsible. He takes the time every week just to have a Internet address. He has mentioned in this address that American soldiers are fighting in Iraq. He mentions that although it has been a long time since the first American Christmas, the purpose or the message has never worn out. The message of Christmas is hope. Obama take direst action, he does not slack around. He can get serious or fun, but in his job he puts serious efforts. That is the type of President we need for the United States of America.

Grand Canyon Message 7

I am currently going 50miles/hour from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon. This is a 5 and 1/2 hour trip. It takes up half a day and even worse is that there is a 1 hour time difference between Nevada and Arizona. The Grand Canyon is an National Park and a popular tourist attraction. Millions of tourist visit the Grand Canyon each year.
When arriving at the Grand Canyon's South Rim visitor center parking lot, I saw a magnificent wonder. The color of the Grand Canyon was red, red orange, orange. It had different colors depending on the different Rock Layers. There are 12 different Rock Formations. This includes the Kaliab Formation which is the newest formation, the Toroweap formation, Coconino sandstone , Hermit formation, Supai group, Redwall limestone, Temple Buttle formation, Muav limestone, Bright Angel shale, Tapeats sandstone, Grand Canyon super group , and finally the oldest Vishnu basement rocks. These layers have different rocks. These different rocks include the sandstone, limestone, shale,etc. Native Americans have settled here and left there mark and the United States Department of Interior turned this into a National Park in the 20th Century.
I took numerous pictures of the grand Canyon and even recorded the Grand Canyon. I just couldn't get away from the Grand Canyon's beauty. The next step is heading towards the free shuttle. I took the Free shuttle to Bright Angel Trail. I headed down the Bright Angel trail avoiding the horse droppings. This trail takes you 2,000 miles to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. The Bottom of the Grand Canyon is the Colorado river. As I am heading towards the bottom, I am recording every step I take. I used numerous different shot variety like a pan, wide shot, zoom in or out, and tilt. When the sun sets it glows red and makes the grand canyon look gorgeous. The different rock formations look totally different from each other. That is because it is composed of different rocks. I hiked the Bright Angel trail, but did not reach the bottom. I asked another hiker did you reach the bottom? He said yes, but it took me 5 hours. I hiked until 5 pm when the sun was starting to set.
I hiked about 1/4 or 1/8 of the Grand Canyon until I climbed back up again due to the fact that I had no source of light like a flashlight or a lamp.
When I took the shuttle back to the visitors' center, I drove to the hotel. It was Holiday Inn Express. Holiday Inn Express has morning continental breakfast, fitness center, and nice, comfortable Priority club rooms. After checking in , I went to Wendys' to eat a fast food dinner. They have much better food quality than McDoanlds. After Dinner I headed towards my Priority Club hotel room. It was nice and big. It had a microwave and a refrigerator.
After dumping my stuff at the room, I took a 1 hour dip in their pool. It was Small, but large enough for me. This dip cooled my aching body from hiking for 2 hours in the Grand Canyon.
The next day, I took went back to the Grand Canyon South Rim to take more pictures. After doing this for 1 hour, I went to the Grand Canyon Bookstore to buy postcards, magnets, and other souvenirs.
Then I headed back to Las Vegas, Nevada.
On the trip back , I witnessed the barren desert lands of Arizona. There were catuses and people living in trailers. There was no oasis for miles. There was plateaus and mountains. In the opposite direction I saw snow capped mountains that touched the clouds. There was also a National Forest association's protected forest refugee outside of the Grand Canyon.
Since the Grand Canyon South Rim is near the desert, there is a sign that shows you the way to the desert. You can see the barren, dry land with little to no rain water or water.
All the water that the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas comes from Hoover Dam and Lake Mead. Hoover Dam supplies Grand Canyon and Las Vegas's electricity while Lake Mead supplies their water. It so happens that Hoover Dam and Lake Mead is a place where you cross to reach Las Vegas from the Grand Canyon.
The Hoover Dam was the crossing point between the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas. It has been operating since the Great Depression. It produces electricity for states like Colorado, Arizona, California , Nevada.

Hoover Dam message 6

This message is dedicated to the thousands of Americans during the Great Depression built Hoover Dam. America thank you for building a architureal marvel.

From Las Vegas, I drove to Boulder city. Boulder city is home of Hoover Dam. My motive was to travel to the Grand Canyon, but stopped on Hoover Dam to take pictures. When I parked my car , I started walking and videotaping this gigantic architure. I walked to get better shots. I tried to get pans, zoom in and out, widescreen, and tilt. It was extremely difficult to get the whole dam in one shot. As I walked towards the Visitor center to have a tour, I took shots of Lake Mead and the Colorado river.
When I entered the visitors' center, I watched a video on Hoover Dam. Hoover Dam was built during the great depression It was during the Great Depression that a lot of people wanted to work on a Dam. The workers were payed $2 a day and were given homes near the dam for them and their families. It was those houses that were considered the first neighborhood near Hoover Dam. This was originally a seven year project, but completed it in five years. It was because of a new cementing technique. They also speeded up the process of drilling a tunnel to diverge the Colorado River. This tunnel sent the river towards the other side thus forming Lake Mead. Lake Mead is the largest man-made lake in the World. It is approximately the same size as the state of Pennslyvannia. President Herbert Hoover started the project and after his administration, President Frankin D. Roosevelt ended the project. It was originally named Boulder Dam, but renamed to Hoover dam because of Herbert Hoover. Herbert Hoover was an architect, humanitarian, politican, and environmentalist. Hoover Dam generates enough electricity to millions of homes. It generates electricity for Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, and California. Hoover Dam is between the state of Nevada and Arizona. It has two time differences. One is Central time and the other is pacific. Both times are posted at the two towers.
Hoover Dam represents American strength in a hard time period. America learned how to make a dam before the world. America was the first to build a dam and put a man on the moon. Obama was right because in our period, we can get out of this recession. If we got through the great depression than we can ge through the Recession.
America is not the number one nation because of its military strength or its technological achievements, but because of America's liberty, freedom, constitution, and democratic system.
These principles fuel our nation to be the number one nation in the world.
Hoover Dam is an architureal marvel that may not generate enough electricity now,but it stands for American freedom and strength.

New Jersey Nets against The Houston Rockets or message 10

This message is dedicated to all the players on the Nets and Rockets.

I was watching a Nets game yesterday, December 22, 2008,against the Rockets. It was a game with the Nets , Yi Jiannian and the Rockets, Yao Ming. It was basically all asians watching the game. There was so many Chinese that they had a traditional Chinese lion dance at the begining of the game. The purpose of drafting Yi Jiannian was so that the Nets could build an Asian Fan Club, but I think that Asians only come once a year to Meadowlands Sports complex to see Yao Ming and Yi Jiannian. Even with an Asian Fan club, not all the seats are filled. The Nets did play well , but the Rockets were just better than them. Yi played well, but he does not have consistent shots and constantly miss. The Rockets had the same problem , but they try to reach exceed expectations and all their players can shoot. Every single player on the Rockets have great aim in yesterday night's game. A Few years ago, I watched the same game and with the same resaults , but there was a difference. Yao Ming did not shoot as well as he did yesterday. If we used today's resaults and replace with 3 years ago resaults then the rockets would be undefeated now. My point is that if you work on something and have the right mindset then you can accomplish anything. It was tested through Yao Ming. I see great improvements in Yao Ming. He is the greatest Chinese Basketball player in China because he works hard. I the Chinese olympic basketball team,he was the best. This is good, but basketball is team sport. You can't depend on one person. That is what the Nets are doing now. The Nets is depending on Vince Carter and Yi Jiannian. The Rockets used to depend on Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady, but now their entire team is great at shooting, layups, and rebounds. It is great to have one or two great players, but it is a team sport. If you just depend on a few players you can never defeat a team full of good trained players.
Yesterday's game made me extremely proud of both teams because the Rockets improved teamwork and the Nets stayed in the game until the very end. The Nets did not give up hope. That is extremely important in both life and game. You must be hopeful of what improvements Barack Obama will do to the economy. You need to be hopeful of your schoolwork, homework, work, and buisness. If you have a poor buissness you can't give up hope, you have to make changes or improvements. The Rockets used to be a terriable team, but they worked on their fundenmentals and teamwork. That is what the Nets need to do because I have faith in the Nets that they will one day defeat the Rockets. It may not be this season, or the next season, but the importance is teamwork. Sometimes when you want to move forward you must love back a few steps.
In this game of Nets 86 to Rockets 112, it was a proud game because the Nets scored 2 more shots during the last minute.
The key here is never give up hope and work on teamwork. Teamwork in basketball is important. If one of the Nets player is reading this , then consider working on your fundementals and teamwork. Work with your team more. Stay positive and give motivational tips to your fellow teammates.

Las Vegas, Nevada

During my Thanksgiving, I was fortunate enough to travel to Las Vegas. Las Vegas is in Nevada and Clark's County. You may think it is all gambling casinos, but that is not true because at my stay in New York New York Hotel and Casino, I found out that each hotel and casino has some unique attraction.
The New York New York is the Unique attraction because they made models of the Chrysler, Empire, statue of Liberty, and Ellis Island. Then there was Paris Las Vegas where they have a model of the Eiffel Tower and Arch of Triumph. Another few blocks away, you reach Venice. Las Vegas is the only place where you can move from Venice to Paris to New York on the same street.
It was on my first day at Las Vegas , Nevada that I seen the Red Rock Canyon from afar and visit the Flamingo hotel /casino. This casino has a nice Buffet and a Flamingo habitat. I ate lunch at the Buffet and found it appetizing. The Flamingo habitat had many other animals like the Japanese Kol. This fish is the world's longest living fish. The oldest fish lived about two hundred years old. That is almost the same age as our Constituion and Declaration of Independance.
The buffet was perfect because it had fruits and vegetables that hydrated my body from the dry air.
Across from the Flamingo was Caeser Palace. Caeser Place was gigatic, it has numerous buildings and spans a huge chunk of the roadside. In Caeser Palace, you can watch Atlantis, fight between the Gods. In Caeser Palace, there is replicas that make it realistic. They have statues of Greek and Roman Gods. They have Roman and Greek styles in the Caeser place because of the Roman style fountains and Roman style statues. It has a replicated Roman Colassium that is the Parking Garage. From the Rooftop of the parking Garage, you could see Paris Las Vegas,New York New York, Flamingo, The Strastasphere, Circus Circus, Bellagio, and Monte Carlo.There was a small shrine for Buddha outside Caeser Palace. It was a donation to Caeser Palace.
In Las Vegas, there are several bus stops that take you anywhere in Las Vegas. During the night, I brought tickets to th Wynn hotel and Casino bus stop. It goes downtown. I love those ticket machines because it is a rare machine that gives change in Presidential dollar coins. Wynn hotel and Casino is a high class and expensive hotel. It is about 5 stars. It is beautiful inside and outside. Wynn was built in 2005. Wynn isn't the only pretty hotel and Casino because MGM Grand and Mirage are both 5 star hotels. MGM Grand is the largest hotel in Las Vegas.
A Few blocks away from Wynn is Treasure Island. Treasure Island has a show called Sirens from the Deep. It is a musical show. It was directed by High School Musical director Kenny Ortega.
It was amazing because of its special effects. I was amazed that the sailors ship sank and rose back up again. I am still wondering how they could have shot a canon because the sailors shot a canon and the building behind the Sirens caught on fire.
Next to Tresure Island is Mirage. Mirage is part of MGM Grand. It is owned by the same owner as MGM Grand. Mirage has a dolphin habitat and a wonderful forest inside. There were huge trees and water. Across from Mirage was Venetian. Venetian is a replicated versian of Venice Italy. There was a gandla ride with a full blood itlain who sings Italian for you. I went on that gandla ride and was amazed at his wonderful voice. I was fortuate to have him as my rower because it was only him that can sing beautifully. It is a wonderful ride.
Next to Venetian is Paris Las Vegas. Across from Paris is Bellagio. Outside of Bellagio is a fountain show. It has a different show every half hour. It was an amazing show with music. Inside of Bellagio is an American Art Exhibit. It features Georgia o'keefe. Her artwork was inspried by New Mexico. I saw a famous painting with an animal skull attached to a huge pole. It was said that it must have been very painful and that was how Georgia O'Keefe felt. Her husband in New York passed away and she moved to New Mexico. In their lobby, was a gracious greeting by 2,000 dynamic hand-blown glass flowers peering from high above their spectacular ceiling stage. Allow your senses to take flight as your gaze ascends to appreciate this vivid piece of creative expression commissioned by world-renowned artist, Dale Chihuly. I was impressed at the design as soon as I came into the lobby. It was Thanksgiving time when I went to Las Vegas, so the Bellagio garden was decorated with pumpkins and vine gate. I even saw a tree that could move its eyes. It could even talk. There was a plant that could open its mouth and snap back up again. Brilliance abounds inside our breathtaking Conservatory & Botanical Gardens. The attention to detail is astounding. The passionate display of nature in all its awe-evoking glory - quite simply, sensational! Let your imagination wander as you assume a leisurely stroll amongst rare natural finds selected distinctively for Bellagio from all over the world.

Admire the essence of every season recreated with exceptionally gorgeous plants, flowers and trees thoughtfully arranged to inspire full splendor. Specially designed lighting spotlights every flower to accentuate its best features. To ensure the Conservatory & Botanical Gardens maintains magnificence 365 days a year, 140 expert horticulturists theatrically arrange gazebos, bridges, ponds, and water features uniquely for each season. Treat yourself to this unrivaled attraction's ever changing personality for the Holidays, Chinese New Year, spring, summer, and fall!
Then there is the Richard MacDonald exhivit with sculptures that he sculpted. It is near the O Theatre. A Few steps away is the American Moderism Art Exhibit. Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art is currently showcasing the best of American Modernism. Organized by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (MFA), the exhibition will feature masterpieces by American modernists such as Georgia O'Keeffe, Stuart Davis, Marsden Hartley, Arshile Gorky and others.

The collection is devoted to American artists who worked during a dynamic period in American art. The period, known as American Modernism, began at the turn of the 20th century and reached its pinnacle between World War I and World War II. During this time, which had been dominated by Impressionism, many younger artists responded in a variety of ways to the modern age. Celebrated artists such as O'Keeffe began experimenting with painting by offering a subjective take on the traditional subject matter of still life and landscape. Some of the artists explored the natural world with abstract forms. Modernism was bold, new, and controversial no matter which of these styles an artist employed.

An engaging retrospective, the carefully chosen display features more than 30 of the MFA's most renowned paintings. This contemporary presentation will advance Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art's dedication to enhancing the cultural landscape of Las Vegas.
The Paris Las Vegas is right in front of Bellagio has the Effiel Tower and Arch of Triumph. Right next to it is the Las Vegas Monorail. The Monorail takes you all over The Las Vegas strip. There is no traffic congestion. It is extremely fast. You can see all sorts of scenes from the monorail. For those of you not famailar with the Monorail. The Monorail is a train that only travel on one rail.
Next stop on the strip is Monte Carlo and M&M World. M&M World is the largest in the world. It has 4 stories of Fun. It features a 3-D show called I Lost my M in Vegas. There is penny souvenirs stations. There are souvenirs, t-shirts, and post cards to be brought. Next to it is Outback Steakhouse. Across from it is New York New York and right next to it is MgM grand. MGM Grand has a Lion habitat.
Across from MGM is Tropicana and across from Tropicana is excalibur. Excalibur is decorated in Europe's renaissence and medival period. There are free shows in there as well. Neighbors with Excalibur is Luxor. Luxor has the Luxor Pyramid, obelisk, and sphinx. It has the Human bodies exhibitian that was once in the Metroplitain Museum of Art. There is also an obelisk inside the pyramid.
Adjacent to Luxor is Mandalay Bay. Mandalay Bay has an Aquarium and a Shark Habitat. In the Aquarium there is jellyfishes.The Jellyfish is from Australia. If it stings you , you die immediately. There are several sharks that were born in the Aquarium. Mandalay Bay is very proud of that.
On the otherside of Las Vegas is Circus Circus and Strastosphere. Circus Circus has an adventuredome perfect for children. I has an indoor rollar caster. In Circus Circus, there is an acrobatic show that features people jumping or swing from one side to the other. Then the first person has to catch the second person upside down. It is a mini show that they show you at cirsuses.There are carnival games in Circus Circus as well.
In the strasphere is an rooftop rollar coaster rides. The Strasphere is Las Vegas tallest tower. It stands several 100 feet tall.
The present Las Vegas was later build, but the older Las Vegas is Las Vegas downtown. It traces its roots back to the 1930s. In the downtown is a lazershow. In the lazor show every show is different than the previous one 30 minutes after. It is amazing and you must see it. I saw three lazer shows and was impressed at how they could have made it on a roof that covered the entire old strip.
At the Chinese Chinatown mall, there are resturants including Canton,Sezchuan, Shanghai food. I fortnate enough to eat at most of the resturants. There is also a place where you can buy bubble tea. I love the bubble tea. It is my favorite chinese drink.
If you need food or supplies there is a grocery store at the mall.
If you want to travel to Las Vegas, the first thing you do is buy water at the nearest convient store.

The Lives of Pearl Buck A Tale of China and America by. Irvin Block

The lives of Pearl Buck;: A tale of China and America by Irvin Block

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
When I read this biography, I felt it gave me imformation about Pearl Buck , but not enough. The book states her life in China , Japan, and America, but it is not like Peter Conn's book where it states more valuable imformation. It explains her life in China and how she learned Chinese and how see fell in love with China. It also explains what her transition to America was like.
