A global epidemic through the eyes of a 10-year-old
Ryan Marcinkowski, 10
Then I googled it. “Corona is an island kingdom and the birthplace of Rapunzel in Disney’s 2010 animated feature film, Tangled. The central hub of Corona’s kingdom was built on an island and grew over many years.”
I had a conversation with my mom's cousin who was visiting us.
Latest Fashion–the Mask
NATYA CHANDRASEKAR, 12
Being a young girl, fashion is something that I think about all the time and I saw how people were obsessed with the kind of mask they were buying: neutral colors, bold colors, colorful prints etc., and this cartoon was created on that idea.
Trust (Inspired by "Harlem" by Langston Hughes)
Daniel Zhu, 10
What happens to trust vanished?
Does it reappear
Out of thin air?
Does it painfully regrow
like a half-alive tree?
Does it haunt you-
A ghost in your dreams?
Does it leave you as empty-
nothing but a shell?
Does it destroy you and
Crush you underfoot?
Or does it leave you wondering
If trust
Can be attained
At all?
A Day at School
Liam Lipe-Smith, 8
School is out
All about this nation
But it’s not vacation
It’s home-learning education.
Home we are stuck,
With much work to do
From feeding the dog,
To scooping some poo.
Reading and writing,
Language and math,
It all must get done,
To Avoid Mommy’s wrath.
Fishy Exterminates the Coronavirus
Mina Iqlas, 10
It was May 1, 2020. Fishy Crabb the red lobster was having a normal day. He turned on the news. There was a news anchor named Mr. Lobbie on cable, who was always so dramatic.
“The new virus called COVID-19 is spreading around the world!” he yelled.
Review of The Ickabog by J.K. Rowling
Anya Geist, 13
All over the world, children are stuck in quarantine. And, I’d imagine, a lot of them (myself included) have been staring at their bookshelves, trying to find books they’ve never read and suffering through rereading books that they never really liked in the first place.
Snow White Has COVID-19
Simran Adnani, 6
The Queen sat by her window. Pricking her finger on a needle, she wished for a child.
She had a beautiful daughter called Snow White. When Snow White was 6 years old, the Queen died, and the King married a cruel stepmother.
Stepmother made a magic mirror and asked it,” Who is the fairest of all?
Friendship
Natya Chandrasekar, 12
I created the friendship cartoon after I came from a walk where 2 friends were walking 6 feet apart and I realized this is going to be the way of life after the coronavirus.
Natya is selling prints of all of her cartoons to raise funds for a nonprofit organization in her local area called REF (Ravenswood Education Foundation), which has established an em...
$11.9 billion is the cost of the NPS deferred maintenance. This is because funds keep getting cut, and not a lot of measures have been taken by the government to continue to preserve “America’s Best Idea” - a name given by many to our national parks. Our leaders simply don't seem to understand how severe the consequences are of underfunding national parks.
