It seems so unusual for some people to have a theme park like this. In this short story we see how this unusual theme park helps a boy and his friends…

do anything on Labor Day weekend. I usually just stay at the house with my family, however; this Labor Day weekend I went to Six Flags for the first time in years with my best friend. After school Friday, we headed to Illinois. We stayed at a water park hotel? I'm not completely sure what it technically called. It was a tropical themed hotel. I liked all of the interesting signs and prints throughout the building. Although I did not enjoy the wax figure siting in a windowsill. I'm not…

The Bus Ride That Changed It All When Rosa Parks set foot in that Montgomery city bus after a long day of working as a seamstress on December 1 of 1996, she didn’t expect her life, and others, to change forever. Back in the early to mid 1900’s, segregation played a big role in some people’s everyday lives. Rosa Parks’s family was partially the reason that she refused to give up her seat that day. Rosa Parks has earned many awards for her act of heroism. Rosa Parks’s refusal to give up her seat…

A long time ago, DisneyLand used to be the most popular children’s amusement park in the world, but things have changed since then. Then, it all came crashing down, and DisneyLand was abandoned and forgotten in history. It all started because of one peculiar ride, Small World.
