I learned that cooking also used fractions so fractions are very important. we needed to use equivalent fractions to use the least cups.
I also learned that it is important to preheat the oven because the oven will be hot when we use it.
finally, I learned that it will be very tasty.

Dwight D. Eisenhower was the commander in chief of the D-day invasion plan. he and his SHAEF (Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force) team planed the invasion. he wanted good weather and lots of fog so the enemy couldn’t see the allies. he was the 34 president and one of the most successful ones.
summery (what i learned)
i learned that the operation was originally planed for June 5th but was canceled because the weather condition. so, the operation happened on the next day, June 6th.
Connection
this book talked about a particular attack. another book called the battle of the bulge also tolked a bout it and both was about D-day
in the book, there was a character called Calvin faked his way in to the army while he was twelve years old. he soon found himself fighting kamikaze pilots during the battle of Guadalcanal.
in the wars, people has answered the call of duty many times, but it isn’t just adults that sacrificed themselves for the sake of their country, but it wasn’t just adults that has answered, teenagers has also answered and many were underage.
i read another book about soldiers that fought underaged and many were very heroic.
there were many wars that have happened. Many people has answered the call of duty of their homeland. but adults weren’t the only people willing to give their lives to defend their country. teens have fought too, and many were underage. the usual age to fight in most wars are 16-17 years old, but many teens have outsmarted the army so they can fight for their country.
a boy called ben wanted to fight in the civil war so he can help reunite the country and defeat the rebels. he enlisted as a drummer but his drum broke but fought on and became a color-bearer. it is a honer to carry the colors of a regiment but the color bearer was usually the first to get shot. he proudly caryed the color till the end of the war and was one of the first jewish soldiers -if not the first- to be awarded the highest honer in the military- the medal of honer.
The connection i have is with another soldier in the book. the soldier was also underage and also fought in the army. he also became a soldier

connections
I have an connection with the book and the westward expansion. In the book, the natives liked the sailers at the beginning but some of them attacked later on. in the westward expansion, the explorers were also greeted by natives but sometimes attacked by them, too
The people CC has met on the islands wants to kill CC’s men.
CC’s being mean to them
CC is arrogant and says that “ten of our men can frighten away thousand of them”
I think he is a bit mean because he is stealing and forcing people to give him things.
what could CC done that could of made it better.
This book is about teenagers that has been at war. most of them are about soldiers that are in world war 2 and are not 17 years old yet. all of them were heroes saving their squads or fighting single handedly.
my favourite soldier was called Jim days. he was in a shell hole and 162 Japanese soldiers were fighting him and he killed them all. he was later awarded the medal of honer
i saw another book about heroic soldiers fighting wars.
