*Nurulhuda just sniffed*


*Simone said "Wow"*


*Nurul is beside me and she is trying to explain a mockingbird to me*


*Shuo Feng says "It's my bedtime teddy bear book."*


*Eunice said "huh"*


*Nurul says "I don't think they read you know?"*


*Shahidin says "say what?"*


*Faiz says "A difficult book to read"*


*Nurul laughed*


*James complimented "I enjoyed the book and it made me more aware of prejudice in the world!"*


*Jasmine says "huh?" with a sweet smile*


*Edmund says "Errrrr....learning discrimination lets us know what happened in the past"*


*Lynn giggled "Peisze is the bluejay and I'm the mockingbird in the book"*


*Peisze says something that is irrelevant so I'm not including it here.*


Right my dear princes and princesses, welcome to the world of To Kill A Mockingbird".
