The Fourteenth Goldfish - Chapters 6-10 by Ben, Kira, Braeden and Mackenzee

We've really enjoyed this book so far.  Here are just a few things from the book that we have liked:

We think it was funny how Melvin thinks he can drive, but he forgets he's really 13, not 76.  Melvin forgot how the fountain of youth turned him young again.  That got us wondering about how the fountain of youth works.  We want to learn more about the fountain of youth and how it turns you young again.
                                                             
One part that left us hanging was on the bus, Melvin says, "we're getting off on a different stop".  Then we stopped reading so it left us hanging and wanting to read more.  Our teacher Ms. Adamson read the name of the next chapter, "Building Twenty-Four".  That really left us hanging.

The part where Melvin and Ellie are making a lab in Ellie's garage reminds us of a Calvin and Hobbes comic where Calvin and Hobbes are making a hide out in Calvin's garage and they push the car out and the car rolls away.  Has anything like this happened to you?
                                                                                              

We created pictures of what we think scientists look like!
