From a Distance: a Plane By Tony F
From a distance, a plane in the air looks like a small, upside down cross. But up close a plane looks like a giant barrel with wings.
From a Distance: A Normal Home By Tait
From a distance, my house looks like just a normal house. But up close it has memories and things that are close to my family and I. There are pictures of family vacations all across the walls. There are videos of when my brother and I were babies, videos of things like our first […]
From a Distance: J.J. Dresses Pretty By Sami
From a distance…J.J. dresses pretty. She has brown heeled boots, leggings with silk and leather, hair in a long, curly ponytail, black long-sleeved shirt. When you see her you know she’s young and looks like she’s 21. You know she is fun. But up close, she looks like me and she has two sisters […]
From a Distance: Downtown By Nijah
Downtown. It’s a far distance, but up close it’s a busy place with taxies and has the biggest chandelier. The tall buildings that remind me of the Twin Towers or how team work makes the dream work. But up close it’s a history story.
From a Distance: An Equivalent to Humans By Mills

From A Distance: My Diary By Jocelyn
From a distance…This looks like a normal book, but up close, it’s my diary. My diary is no a normal book because I write about family adventures. I also write about my memories about my dad. My diary is not a normal book, because it’s about my life.
From a Distance: The Fifth Day By Jada
I come from a small town, but I can’t seem to figure it out. It wasn’t easy travelling place to place. I was dropped off at a desert, where there was no water, shelter, not even one. The fifth day, I have become very weak and tired, I felt like I was going to […]
From a Distance: A Bit of Me By Hasan J
From a distance, my life is complicated. But it’s the most normal life I can think of. I’m the kid that can listen to someone and acknowledge them, no matter what they’re talking about. And I can be nice to someone that I have bad history with. I am me, not Michal, Jordan, Scottie Pippen, […]
