Bird Brains

Meet the Bird Brains

by Ricky Smith

Ricky is a fan of 90s cartooning and uses the same techniques while drawing his comic strip.   Now it appears he has taken it further with a completely 21st century twist and spread the Bird Brains all over town.  Nice Job Ricky!

A New Review by Rebecca - Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver

The Good, Bad and Ugly

Movie Review for The Perks of Being a Wallflower

The Perks of Being a Wallflower 
5/5

Synopsis
Fifteen-year-old Charlie is coping with the suicide of his friend, Michael. To lessen the fear and anxiety of starting high school alone, Charlie starts writing letters to a stranger, someone he heard was nice but has never met in person.
At school, Charlie finds a friend and mentor in his English teacher, Bill. He also overcomes his chronic shyness and approaches a classmate, Patrick, who, along with his step-sister Sam, become two of Charlie’s best friends.
During the course of the school year, Charlie matures and learns about himself through experiences he shares with friends and learns about society and the world, and deals with a repressed disturbing family secret that he tries to control.
Humorous, meaningful, tear-worthy, a beautifully done story well transferred from page to the big screen.
