The diamond of Darkhold book review

The Diamond of Darkhold is the third book of Ember that began in the underground City of Ember with two characters called Doon and Lina .

We read this story as a group book and discussed it as we read on. The third book started with a big thunder storm when the day was ending Doon's dad tripped and fell and his hand smashed some glass and it cut across his hand and Doon had to take his dad to Doctor Hester's house to get it fixed. The doctor wasn't there so they had to find her, so Doon and Lina went and found the doctor roaming around. So they came back and tried to fix his hand and dug out the glass from his hand.


In the second part of the book Doon decided to go back to Ember to collect the canned foods and return to the village of Sparks and be a hero.

When Doon and Lina got to the city of Ember and were roaming  around the streets, Lina was lagging behind lost in thought   when Doon got captured..... That was the beginning of things going wrong........ You must read the book to find out what happened!

In the end of the story Doon finally escaped and found Lina but Doon had a hurt leg and was finding walking difficult.


Back at the village of Sparks when Doon's leg healed the villagers sent out an expedition for food left behind in Ember. D Doon secretly got all the diamonds from the cave room and gave them out to each group and showed them how to charge them in the sun, they put a light bulb in them the bulb will glow and then they left for the city of ember.when they where done they went back to the village of sparks and then when they got there there was roamer and it was the Trogg's and Doon remembers them so they decided to live here in sparks.

I would recommend this book for E = everyone including grandmas grandpas mums and dads brothers and sisters. 

I really liked the book and i will do anything to watch the movie....... if they make it. It would make the best movie in the thousands and thousands of galaxy's in the universe.

My first home made pizza base

Just last week I made a pizza at home and it was so delicious.  It was a cheese and ham pizza.

The ingredients I used were......


1 TSP of yeast

1 TSP of sugar 

1/2 cup of warm water

1 cup of flour and then mix it until you've got it to be all doughy. Set it in a warm place for about 7 min. Then cook it for around ten minuets and then put your tomato paste on and then put you're toppings on and the put it in the oven for 20 min at 350 oF.
