Mallory On Board

Anchors Away! At least that is what Mallory will be thinking about in this book. The excitement is rushing through the McDonald family. Except, there is one bump in the road for Mallory, or should I say a rock in the sea. Her two best friends' mother and father are getting married. Why is that a problem? Well as Mallory would say, "because their suppose to be 2 separate families!"  

This book at first will made me feel bright and happy inside but, depending on my definition of sad, I could feel tears forming inside. That could probably turn my sunny day out of the picture. I think that it is true, what it says in the book, that there are good ships and bad ships, but there are no ships like friendships. There also is the feeling of being left out, like the extra one in the crowd.

To me, sad can have two meanings in this book.  The meaning of bursting into tears, or the meaning of the feeling as if you were being excluded and letting the sadness build up inside. This book taught me a lot about those two meanings. Also that if you'rr ever feeling left out by a friend, you should always tell them. I would rate this book a 10+.
