Week 4: Monday

I am currently reading a book called Riding the Flume. In the book there is a girl who lives with her parents. Every now and then she would sneak away and go to the forest. While in the forest, she would count the rings on the sequoia trees. When her mother came looking for her, she found a note in the tree. I am very curious of what that note is about. I am enjoying this book!
