Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children - Reading Challenge

Due on Dec 02 25 words minimum
INTRO: A mysterious island. An abandoned orphanage. A strange collection of very curious photographs.

It all waits to be discovered in Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children, an unforgettable novel that makes for a thrilling listening experience. As our story opens, a horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores its abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the children were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may have been quarantined on a deserted island for good reason. And somehow - impossible though it seems - they may still be alive.

i think that if i could float my life would be miserable. i would be able to stay on the ground which means that i wouldn't be able to do normal things or live a normal life and i would have to be careful that i don't float to high. this means that i probably wouldn't be able to go outside which would be terrible

I predict that life would be different in many ways if I could float because I would struggle to be on the ground without shoes

If i could levitate, then I predict my life would be different, as I could grab things I couldn't reach, I would have to be constantly careful of not floating into space, and people would treat me very differently. They would either dislike me, make fun of me, try to use my power for their advantages, or be my friend.

If I had a peculiarity that caused me to float in air I would struggle very much. Just like in the book the girl has lead shoes to keep her from floating to the top of the room or into the sky.
