What is in the mystery box? I hope you'll watch my video to find out. If you are interested in the books in this video, here is a list of them:.

mother, daughters, sisters: Imogen Elvis: Jane Austen's Eighth Heroine
http://motherdaughterssisters.blogspot.com/2014/01/imogen-elvis-jane-austens-eighth-heroine.html
Monday, 6 January 2014. Imogen Elvis: Jane Austen's Eighth Heroine. Jane Austen's eighth heroine. It’s taken me a week to think of how to introduce myself. First impressions are so important. I don't want to be mistaken for a Mr Darcy, proud and disagreeable. I’d rather be like one of Jane Austen’s heroines. Could I possibly introduce myself as Elizabeth Bennet? Could I be Elinor Dashwood then, responsible and sensible? Am I Catherine Morland? We share a passion for reading. I think the length of her...

mother, daughters, sisters: The Distant Sister
http://motherdaughterssisters.blogspot.com/2014/07/the-distant-sister.html
Thursday, 17 July 2014. I left home when my sister Gemma-Rose was still a little baby. I never really came home to enjoy seeing her and all my siblings grow up. I visited, and every time they were a bit bigger, a bit more mature. and a bit more used to the fact that I would leave them again. I used to be able to visit every year. However, money became very tight after my wedding. It's 2014, and I haven't seen my family since my wedding in 2011. That's three years! I am so proud of them. They are beau...

Thursday, 14 August 2014. A Late Winter Walk Through the Bush. This morning, while I was running along the bush tracks close to home, I noticed a number of colourful flowers dotted here and there amongst the green leaves. This afternoon, Sophie and I returned with our cameras (and Nora the puppy) to take some photos. I don't know all the names of the flowers, but banksias are easy to identify. There are a few different wattles blooming at the moment. The flowers on this one are arranged in spikes. Gemma-...

Friday, 31 January 2014. A Trip to the Hairdresser's. My hair was getting long and scraggly. I was tired of it always being in my face, so I was very excited when Mum rang up for hair appointments. I decided I wanted my hair to be cut short, like my big sisters'. You will have your hair cut on Wednesday," Mum told us. Wednesday dawned. I hurried to finish my jobs before we had to go out. I grabbed my shoes and ran for the front door. Soon Charlotte, Gemma-Rose, Mum and I were entering the hairdresser's .

Tuesday, 25 February 2014. I want to make a cool movie but I need an idea. "Mum, what could I film? How about a show and tell," Mum suggests. "Get all the things you have been doing this week and show people.". I think this is a great idea. So grabbing my notebook and pen. I sit down to plan what I could show people. You could have it themed," Mum says. "One video about things that have changed around the house, the next about movies.". Mum smiles as I rush off to find all the books I have read. Looking ...

Thursday, 29 August 2013. I walked into my piano lesson. I couldn't wait to see what I would be doing. The first thing my piano teacher said was, "Let's choose an exam piece to learn.". I stared. Had I heard her right? Did she say exam piece? Even though Imogen and Charlotte have done lots of exams, I have never done one in my life! As my teacher finished the last piece she turned to me. "Which did you like best? I sat down at the piano. She smiled. "I bet you can't wait.". Wednesday, 14 August 2013.
