Its me and my sister
Book Excerpt/Sample
My life was all normal, but then things had to change.
My name is Ara. I’m 9 and I have a brother named Felice who is 5 years old.
Also, I am new to Toronto and things are just so different here. All I want to do is go back to Arizona, but that’s just me.
My brother is not too sad, he doesn’t miss his friends too much because he already got a new friend, Aziz.
But I haven’t made any new friends here because of all the weird things.
Sometimes I ask my mom, why we had to move and my mom always says, “Because I’ve got a really good business job,” and she ends the conversation.
******************
One day, I was dreaming about going back to Arizona when my brother (rudely) shook me awake.
“Ara! the mirror in the basement is shaking!” yelled my brother.
“Felice, that doesn't make sense,” I say.
“Look for yourself,” says my brother.
I go have a look because I do not want Felice to annoy me for the rest of the night. I go down to the basement and I'm shocked to see…
The mirror is SHAKING!!!!
I get closer to inspect and accidentally bump into it. It glows yellow and then it starts to suck us in.
“Ahhh!!!!” I scream.
Meanwhile my brother looks like he’s having fun.
Can you believe that? My brother could have fun if a 10 feet alligator was looking for a very certain meal-us!
I look around, hoping to find something to hold on to, but our basement is empty except for some old boxes that could never support our weight.
We go falling into the mirror.
